Title: Public charging in Utrecht: price per kWh and costs (2026) Canonical: https://erevergelijken.eu/en/charging-prices/utrecht/ Language: en Last modified: 2026-10-21 Source: EREVergelijken.eu (the ERE Team), CC BY 4.0 for the data Public charging by city # Public charging in Utrecht€0.41 to €0.57 per kWh Who operates the public chargers in Utrecht, what charging there costs per kWh and what that means per month, compared with charging at home and with other cities. All prices incl. VAT, with source and date. Charge points by TotalEnergies, Velian Checked on October 21, 2026 · prices per kWh incl. VAT · a source for every price Short answer As of October 21, 2026, charging without a card at the public chargers in Utrecht costs €0.46 at TotalEnergies, €0.57 at Velian (formerly Equans) and €0.86 at Public fast chargers (DC) per kWh, including VAT. Per 100 km that is €7.67 to €10.66. At 234 kWh a month that is €96 to €133. Fast charging costs €0.72 to €0.86 per kWh. At home, a month at the same consumption averages €60 on a dynamic contract (October 2025 to September 2026). Prices ## Who operates the public chargers in Utrecht For chargers in public space, municipalities and provinces often award multi-year concessions to an operator. According to the NAL, public clients can set conditions on the (maximum) tariff, the number and type of price components and, for example, a display. As a result prices differ between regions and sometimes within a region. The NAL reports that price transparency scores demonstrably better in concession areas than in the open market or at semi-public chargers. - ### TotalEnergies Regular charging (AC) €0.46 per kWh incl. VAT AC incl. VAT with smart charging (default); if you turn smart charging off, a higher tariff applies. Dynamic tariff: 0.41 to 0.51 per kWh depending on the time block (8 blocks).

Charging cards ## With or without a card in Utrecht Without a card (ad hoc, for example via the QR code on the charger or with your payment card where there is a reader) you only pay the operator’s price. A charging card passes that price on under its own terms and adds its own costs: subscription, start fee or surcharge. Whether a card works at these chargers and which price applies must be visible beforehand in the card’s app or on its site (AFIR Art. 5(5)). Cards that set their own price per charger cannot be worked out beforehand; they are not in this list.

Your rights ## Charging without a card in Utrecht The EU AFIR regulation also applies to the municipal chargers: you must be able to charge without a subscription and see the price beforehand. Is the bill wrong? First complain to your card provider or the operator. If that does not help, report it to ACM ConsuWijzer. [ACM ConsuWijzer, Tarieven laadpalen](https://consument.acm.nl/elektriciteit-en-gas/wat-betaal-ik-voor-mijn-energie/tarieven-laadpalen) [Where to go](https://erevergelijken.eu/en/charging-prices/#complaints) Charging without a contract must be possible everywhere (AFIR Art. 5(1)) Operators must offer ad hoc charging at every publicly accessible charging point. Under AFIR Art. 2, ad hoc means without registering, without a written agreement and without a commercial relationship beyond buying the charging session. According to the European Commission (Q&A 5.9), an operator or mobility service provider app that requires an account therefore does not count as an ad hoc payment option. Cash-only payment is not sufficient either (Q&A 5.7). Does not apply to charging points where charging is free. [Verordening (EU) 2023/1804 (AFIR), EUR-Lex](https://eur-lex.europa.eu/eli/reg/2023/1804/oj) [Europese Commissie, Q&A over AFIR (EU) 2023/1804](https://transport.ec.europa.eu/transport-themes/clean-transport/alternative-fuels-sustainable-mobility-europe/alternative-fuels-infrastructure/questions-and-answers-regulation-deployment-alternative-fuels-infrastructure-eu-20231804_en) New chargers: pay with a widely used payment card (AFIR Art. 5(1)) At publicly accessible charging points deployed from 13 April 2024, ad hoc charging must be possible with a payment instrument widely used in the EU. The operator must offer at least one of: (a) a payment card reader, (b) a contactless device that can at least read payment cards, or (c) only for points below 50 kW: a secure online payment option, for example via a QR code. The Commission confirms that a static QR code (sticker) can comply if the payment is secure (Q&A 5.10), and that a contactless reader may accept payment cards in a mobile wallet (Q&A 5.9). One terminal may serve several points in a charging pool. [Verordening (EU) 2023/1804 (AFIR), EUR-Lex](https://eur-lex.europa.eu/eli/reg/2023/1804/oj) [Europese Commissie, Q&A over AFIR (EU) 2023/1804](https://transport.ec.europa.eu/transport-themes/clean-transport/alternative-fuels-sustainable-mobility-europe/alternative-fuels-infrastructure/questions-and-answers-regulation-deployment-alternative-fuels-infrastructure-eu-20231804_en) Chargers below 50 kW: all price components available beforehand, in a fixed order (AFIR Art. 5(4)) At charging points below 50 kW, the operator must make the ad hoc price with all its components clearly and easily available at the station so you know it before starting. The order is fixed: price per kWh, price per minute, price per session, then any other component. This may be digital, for example via a QR code or link at the charger (Q&A 5.19). According to the Commission, this duty applies since 13 April 2024 to all publicly accessible points below 50 kW, including existing ones (Q&A 5.20). [Verordening (EU) 2023/1804 (AFIR), EUR-Lex](https://eur-lex.europa.eu/eli/reg/2023/1804/oj) [Europese Commissie, Q&A over AFIR (EU) 2023/1804](https://transport.ec.europa.eu/transport-themes/clean-transport/alternative-fuels-sustainable-mobility-europe/alternative-fuels-infrastructure/questions-and-answers-regulation-deployment-alternative-fuels-infrastructure-eu-20231804_en) Chargers of 50 kW or more: price per kWh, visible before starting (AFIR Art. 5(4)) At charging points of 50 kW or more, the ad hoc price must be based on the price per kWh delivered. In addition, only an occupancy fee per minute may be charged to discourage long occupancy. The operator must show the ad hoc price per kWh and any occupancy fee per minute at the station so you know them before starting. According to the Commission, show means visibly present at the station, for example on a screen or sticker; a mere reference to a website is not enough (Q&A 5.19). An occupancy fee from the start of the session does not prima facie appear proportionate (Q&A 5.18), and per-transaction fees are excluded at these points (Q&A 5.21). These rules apply to points deployed from 13 April 2024.

Before a session starts, they must make all price information for that session available through freely available, widely supported electronic means, listing all price components separately, including e-roaming costs and their own fees. According to the Commission, the aim is that you can compare the ad hoc price with your card price beforehand (Q&A 5.27). Providers may not add extra charges for cross-border e-roaming.
