Scores and market

## Scores that moved, and the market in our comparison

Every provider gets a score under the same public rules: the trust score for ERE providers, the EV score for suppliers and the charging card score. A score changes when a provider adjusts something or when we find something new.

### Which months get a report

Every month from September 2026, when we started recording every check of our data. Before that we cannot say what changed at providers. The electricity price (since 2019) and the ERE price go back further. The current month is updated every day.
