Easee & ERE certificates

Does an Easee charger qualify for ERE registration?

It depends entirely on your model. The Charge Max and the Charge Pro have a built-in MID-certified kWh meter — exactly what the NEa requires — so they qualify for earning money charging at home. Every other Easee lacks that meter: the Easee Home, for years one of the most popular home chargers in the Netherlands, but also the Charge Lite, the standard Charge, the current Charge Up, the Easee One and the commercial Charge Core.

Why that meter is decisive is covered in MID meter explained — in short: without assured metering nothing can be booked, however smart your charger is. The Easee app tracks your consumption neatly, but app values don't count as assured metering.

Mind the model names: "Charge" says nothing about the meter

Easee's naming is a trap. Almost every model starts with "Charge", but that prefix tells you nothing about the metrology. Charge Max and Charge Pro: eligible. Charge Up, Charge Core and the standard Charge: not eligible. The Charge Up is the current single-phase home model you can walk into a shop and buy today — it meters for the app only and is not MID-certified. The Charge Core is the commercial variant and doesn't have the meter either.

The Easee One adds another layer of confusion: it's sold as "Easee One", while the Easee app and the API call it "Charge One". Same device, and that device has no MID meter.

So if you're buying an Easee now because you want to register EREs, look past the brand name and check the exact version. It's on the type plate and on your purchase invoice; in the Easee app you'll see the model name under your product. Not sure? Run the charger check — you'll have your answer within a minute.

Got an Easee without a MID meter?

Nothing changes about charging: the unit keeps doing what it did. Only ERE registration is out, and that cannot be fixed with a firmware update or a bolt-on accessory — MID certification lives in the hardware. If you're about to replace or expand, treat the MID meter as a purchase criterion. The overview of chargers with a MID meter shows what qualifies per brand and model, and the earnings calculator shows what registration is indicatively worth.

Connecting Easee: automatic via your Easee account

You connect a qualifying Easee once through your own Easee account; after that your charge sessions flow in automatically — no meter readings, no manual work. The step-by-step guide is in Connecting Easee. We also include sessions from earlier in the calendar year, so as little as possible is left on the table.
