Electric car charging cost reimbursement for employees

Electric car benefits

Cars produce large amounts of carbon emissions, which are released into our natural atmosphere, leaving us vulnerable to things like pollution and greenhouse gasses. To positively help the environment we live in, electric vehicles are a huge step forward.

Buying an electric car also allows you to receive government subsidies for being environmentally conscious. While you may pay more for your vehicle, the benefits far outweigh the drawbacks.

Electric cars undergo the same inspection and testing procedures as other fuel-powered cars. Electric vehicles are also safer to use, this is due to their lower center of gravity, which makes them much more stable on the road in the event of a collision.


Company car and electric charging

As mentioned earlier, the transition to an EV fleet is becoming more popular for employers, as well as more attractive (due to subsidies). But this also has its challenges. For example, reimbursement of charging costs by the employer is not always easy. Employers are desperately looking for a solution.

How does reimbursing charging cost work?

This is where it gets a little complicated. It is difficult to separate car charging costs from other household energy bills, let alone distinguish business miles from personal miles. It is then up to the employer and employee to demonstrate how much of these costs are business-related. And this is where the difficulties emerge.

EEVEE: a must-have app for electric vehicle drivers

And that's where EEVEE comes in. EEVEE is the solution for fleet managers. The app helps manage charging costs and deliver actionable insights on their EV fleet. EEVEE also allows the employer to limit monthly charging per location, per driver. Which ensures that the employer no longer has to worry about EV charging costs of their employees. And all this without any additional trace hardware.
