What does ERE bring in with your Opel Astra Electric?

How far do you drive a year?

15,000km

That is 2,250 kWh charged at home a year

Home charger

## Which home charger suits the Opel Astra Electric?

The Opel Astra Electric charges at home at up to 11 kW three-phase. A 11 kW (3 phases, 16 A) charger is enough: it charges from 20 to 80% in about 3 h. A 22 kW charger does not make it faster.

50.8 kWh

Fast charging (DC), max.

107 kW

The 2026 update has a 58 kWh battery (55.4 kWh net); both charge at 11 kW three-phase.

For ERE the charger matters, not the car: home charging only earns ERE with a MID meter built into the charger. [Do the charger check](https://erevergelijken.eu/en/charger-check/)

Bidirectional charging

## Can the Opel Astra Electric supply power back?

V2L as standard on the updated Astra Electric with 58 kWh (model year 2026), via a charge-port adapter, up to 3.6 kW. Not confirmed on the earlier 54 kWh version. No V2H or V2G.

V2L Yes V2H No V2G No

ERE

## Earning ERE with your Opel Astra Electric

For every kWh you charge at home you can have emission reduction units (ERE) registered and sold, through an ERE provider. Public charging does not count for you.

1.  A charger with a built-in MID meter

    Since 1 January 2026, only a MID meter built into the charger itself counts for private users. A separate MID meter in the meter cupboard, or only a smart meter, is not enough. Of the 110 charger models we researched, 53 have a built-in MID meter.

    [Do the charger check](https://erevergelijken.eu/en/charger-check/) [Chargers by brand](https://erevergelijken.eu/en/ere-charger/)

2.  An ERE provider

    The provider books your charging sessions with the NEa and sells the EREs. Commissions range from 10% to 28%; above we use the median of 20%.

    [Compare ERE providers](https://erevergelijken.eu/en/compare/)

3.  Cheaper at home and on the road

    With a dynamic contract and smart charging you pay the least per kWh at home; on the road a suitable charging card makes a difference.
