How does pricing work?

Updated over 2 months ago

Octopus Electroverse takes prices directly from charge point operators, but we often provide discounts so it's worth checking out our discounts and benefits blog!

While most chargers have a single price for charging, sometimes you'll see other costs too. Let's break them down...

  • Energy Price - The cost per unit of electricity (kWh) used to charge your EV

  • Time Price - The cost per minute while your EV is plugged in

  • Operator idle fee - The cost per minute while your EV is plugged in but has stopped consuming electricity. In addition to any other costs

  • Operator connection fee - A one-time fee when you start a charging session
