Frequently asked questions
More in the knowledge baseWhat does the charger check check?
The charger check gives an indication of whether your situation is likely to qualify for an ERE payment. It looks at things like a suitable meter, verifiable charging data and ownership of the grid connection.
What is a MID meter?
A MID meter is a meter that complies with the European Measuring Instruments Directive and therefore measures reliably and verifiably. For private individuals a charge point with an integrated MID-certified meter is generally required.
Which charge points qualify?
Generally charge points with an integrated MID-certified meter that can deliver verifiable charging data. From 2027 only integrated MID meters are expected to count.
What if I don’t know which meter I have?
Then “I don’t know” is a perfectly fine answer; the check works even if you don’t know every detail. You’ll get a more cautious indication and can have it confirmed by the provider later.
Is the result a guarantee?
No, the result is an indication based on your answers, not a definitive commitment. The chosen provider ultimately confirms whether your charge point is suitable.
What do I need in order to take part?
In practice it comes down to verifiable charging data from a suitable meter and ownership or authorised use of the grid connection. The provider explains how you supply that data.
Does anything change in 2027?
From 2027 the integrated MID meter is expected to become the norm. More eligible charge points can increase the tradable volume.
