Home charger
Which home charger suits the Renault 5 E-Tech?
The Renault 5 E-Tech 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 15 min. A 22 kW charger does not make it faster.
- Onboard charger (AC)
- 11 kW
- 3 phases
- Battery, usable
- 52 kWh
- Fast charging (DC), max.
- 100 kW
Figures are for the 52 kWh Comfort Range; the 40 kWh Urban Range also charges at 11 kW, but the early entry-level 'five' had no DC fast charging.
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

Bidirectional charging
Can the Renault 5 E-Tech supply power back?
V2G since 20 May 2026 through Renault Power V2G, with a We Drive Solar Solar Life charger and a Hegg Energy dynamic contract (not for the 'Five' trim). V2L via an adapter up to 3.7 kW. No V2H.
Outside the Netherlands: Renault also offers V2G in France (Mobilize PowerBox Verso) and Germany (The Mobility House).

Earning ERE with your Renault 5 E-Tech
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.
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.
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 providersCheaper 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.
