How does Charge Anytime work?

All the electricity you use will initially be charged at your standard home electricity rate. This is the rate that’ll be reflected in your live balance and on your bill.

At the end of the month, we’ll work out how much energy you've used to smart charge your EV.

We'll use this to calculate how much credit we need to add to your account. This will be applied in the following month.

Example:

If your Charge Anytime rate is 7p a kWh. And let's say your standard electricity rate is 26p a kWh.

We’ll credit you 19p for each kWh you’ve used to smart charge your EV. To make your smart charging rate 7p.

This means if you use 100 kWh of energy smart charging your EV, you’ll get £19 in credit back on your bill.

You can override your smart charging schedule by using the Urgent Charge function, to start charging your EV immediately. This is charged at your standard home electricity rate, not 7p per kWh.

You can find out more about how we calculate your credit in our terms and conditions.
