Question 3

How much money can I earn with Grid Rewards?

Accepted Answer

We can confidently say that Grid Rewards will on average earn you more money over the course of a year vs the price guarantee. According to an analysis of historical prices and average driving behavior, you can expect to earn up to 1000 SEK per year per car. This is on-top of the savings from Smart Charging you will continue to make by charging during the cheapest hours.

Question 4

Where is the money coming from?

Accepted Answer

The Grid Rewards earnings are coming from both Svenska Kraftnät and from the electricity exchanges. By being part of Grid Rewards, you’re not just contributing to an efficient energy grid. You're actively helping to reduce the wastage of green energy and decrease the use of expensive fossil fuels. Both of these things: waste and burning fossil fuels, are extremely costly. Therefore by avoiding them and supporting the grid in real-time, we are creating value. Grid Rewards serves as the mechanism through which we ensure you partake in the value we collectively create.

Question 5

What does Grid Rewards mean for me and my charging?

Accepted Answer

At times when less electricity is overall generated in Europe, the charging process will temporarily pause. This can contribute to lower the consumption of fossil fuels and help to make us as independent as possible from them in the long term. Typically, these pauses occur 0 to 5 times per charging session, occasionally more frequently. They usually last at least 10 minutes each, but can last longer if necessary.

When there is a lot of excess energy available for the European grids, your charging will start. Making sure we avoid wasting green energy.

Each time you help, you’ll get paid.

Question 6

I don't have an EV, can I still join Grid Rewards?

Accepted Answer

Smart Charging is just the beginning of this. Our aim, in the long run, is to be able to use any controllable device (batteries, heaters, and more) to make the biggest impact in pushing out fossil fuels.
