Lease and ERE

    Lease Result • receive ERE revenue or wait?

    Lease Result mostly frames ERE as a fleet-policy issue. Joulo finds that useful, but explicitly adds the lease-driver perspective: if you are the EAN owner, the ERE revenue belongs to you and you do not automatically wait.

    In short

    The EAN leads

    If you are the EAN owner, the ERE revenue belongs to you.

    Employer reimbursement sits next to it

    The practical discussion afterwards is about the size of the home-charging reimbursement.

    "In many cases the employer pays the charging cost, while the certificate revenue ends up with the owner of the charger or connection • often the employee."

    // The neutral view

    What applies to every lease driver

    Core rule for this page

    The owner of the EAN receives the ERE revenue. That is the legal starting point across all lease pages. The rest is about registration, reimbursement and agreements.

    For home charging, ERE legally follows the owner of the electricity connection (the EAN). That owner is entitled to the ERE revenue. In many lease situations that is simply the driver or household at the home address.

    That is the part to be crystal clear about: the right to the revenue sits with the EAN owner. The practical discussion starts afterwards, once an employer fully reimburses home charging and wants to revisit that reimbursement.

    Legal starting point

    The right follows the owner of the connection (the EAN). That EAN owner is entitled to the revenue, not automatically the employer or leasing company.

    Practical reality

    Whoever fully reimburses home charging may argue that ERE revenue affects the reimbursement per kWh. That is why alignment with the employer is sensible.

    Contract check

    Check whether your lease or employment policy already says anything about ERE or emission reduction units. If it says nothing, that does not change the legal starting point that the EAN owner receives the revenue.

    // Employer reimbursement

    Three scenarios that make the difference

    Variable electricity price reimbursed

    If your employer only reimburses a limited or variable electricity tariff, ERE is often extra revenue on top of that reimbursement.

    Full kWh price reimbursed

    If your employer pays the full home-charging cost, that reimbursement is more likely to be revisited once ERE starts paying out.

    Private lease

    With private lease the situation is the simplest. You are the EAN owner yourself and there is no employer trying to redesign the reimbursement.

    // Lease Result's public stance

    What Lease Result says publicly

    Lease Result mostly looks through the employer and fleet-policy lens. That means less focus on your individual right to the revenue and more focus on organisational policy choices.

    Lease Result clearly explains how ERE works technically and which conditions apply, such as a MID meter and registration through a recognised provider.

    The page mainly emphasises the policy questions for employers: who gets the revenue, where inequality between employees appears, and how policy should be set up.

    That leaves the employee perspective more implicit. The page mainly pushes readers to think, not to sign up or arrange payout immediately.

    // Joulo's stance

    Joulo's stance

    Joulo takes Lease Result's policy angle seriously, but adds a clear starting point: if you are the owner of the EAN, the ERE revenue belongs to you. Then organise the conversation with your employer about policy, reimbursement and execution.

    Right to the revenue

    Do not automatically let the fleet perspective outweigh your own right as the EAN owner.

    Employer reimbursement

    Use Lease Result mainly as a signal that employer policy needs updating, not as a reason to postpone registration or payout.

    Execution

    Let the revenue be paid out and then make the distribution or reimbursement discussable. That is often faster than waiting for entirely new policy.
