Your plug-in hybrid earns from home charging too
Most ERE providers only talk about full EVs. But a plug-in hybrid builds up ERE's too: every kWh you charge at home with a MID meter counts. Same rules, same rate per kWh, just a smaller volume.

What does your PHEV earn?
Set your charges per week and pick your plug-in hybrid's battery size. The calculator uses the same live ERE price and fee as the rest of the platform.

How is this calculated?
ERE = kWh × % renewable × CO₂ factor
Home charging always uses the grid average, even with solar panels or a green energy contract.

// How it works
For a PHEV, just like for an EV
1. Connect your charger
Connect once via API or OCPP. Joulo reads your home sessions automatically, no manual input.
2. We register with the NEa
Every home-charged kWh is converted to ERE's and registered. Joulo is on the official NEa provider list.
3. Quarterly payouts
Revenue lands in your account every quarter. You don't have to do anything else.
// The honest bit
What to watch out for with a plug-in hybrid
What works in your favour
- Same rate per kWh as a full EV.
- Charging at home overnight builds up steadily.
- Retroactive: sessions from 1 January 2026 count.
What lowers the revenue
- Only home-charged kWh counts, not public charging.
- If you mostly drive on petrol, revenue stays small.
- Without a MID meter, registration isn't possible.
