MKB Lease • receive ERE revenue or wait?
MKB Lease says two things at once, and that is exactly what makes the page strong: if you are the EAN owner the ERE revenue belongs to you, but your employer may still revisit the reimbursement afterwards.
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.

"The revenue goes to the owner of the energy contract on your connection. That is you, not your employer. But note: your employer often pays for the electricity you charge at home. Some employers may then reason that the reimbursement they pay you per kWh should be lowered."

// 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.
// MKB Lease's public stance
What MKB Lease says publicly
MKB Lease is the most direct source on the employer nuance. The page says the revenue is yours, but also warns that your employer may want to lower the reimbursement.
MKB Lease says the revenue goes to the owner of the energy contract and therefore the EAN • you, not your employer.
At the same time, it explicitly says some employers may reason that the reimbursement per kWh should be lowered.
That is why MKB Lease advises making clear agreements in advance.
// Joulo's stance
Joulo's stance
For Joulo, this is the most useful middle ground: if you are the owner of the EAN, the ERE revenue belongs to you. At the same time, you should be realistic about the effect that revenue may have on your employer's home-charging reimbursement.
Right to the revenue
If you are the owner of the EAN, the ERE revenue belongs to you. MKB Lease leaves little doubt about that.
Employer reimbursement
Make the home-charging reimbursement an explicit discussion point if your employer currently reimburses in full.
Execution
Use this page as a realistic basis for registration and internal alignment. That is what makes it credible.

Athlon
Athlon does not yet have a dedicated public ERE landing page, but it does clearly position home charging as the logical and often cheaper route within lease policy.
View pageAlphabet
Alphabet is notably clear: the EAN owner receives the ERE revenue and Alphabet cannot block that claim.
View pageDutchLease
DutchLease is the most explicitly pro-driver source in this batch. The article explicitly says that even with a company lease car the revenue belongs to the EAN owner.
View pageMultilease
Multilease recognises that the EAN owner receives the revenue, but also stresses that employer reimbursement should stay aligned with total charging cost.
View pageLease Result
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.
