What is spot-price billing for EV charging?

Spot-price billing means residents pay the actual Nord Pool hourly electricity price instead of a fixed markup. KotiCharge tracks consumption every hour and calculates costs based on real market prices, enabling savings of up to 50%.

What is power charge and how does KotiCharge handle it?

Power charge (tehomaksu) is Finland's electricity demand charge based on peak usage — and it can potentially double your total electricity bill if not managed properly. KotiCharge is the only operator in Finland that actively manages and fairly splits this cost only among EV users who caused the peak. Smart overnight scheduling avoids peak hours entirely, keeping the charge as low as possible.

How much does KotiCharge cost?

KotiCharge charges €5 per charger per month for the operator service, plus €1 per payment transaction per month. There is a one-time setup fee starting from €350.

Which EV charger brands does KotiCharge support?

KotiCharge supports all chargers using the OCPP 1.6J, 2.0.1J standard or higher. This includes Zaptec, Defa, Garo, Easee, Charge Amps, Alfen, Keba, go-e, Kempower, ABB, Wallbox, and many others. KotiCharge is not tied to any single brand.

How does employee reimbursement work with KotiCharge?

Employees with company cars charge at home and are reimbursed automatically at the exact Nord Pool spot price — no claims, no forms. KotiCharge sends the employer a single consolidated invoice each month covering all employees.

How does billing work in a housing company with KotiCharge?

Each resident is billed individually every month at the exact spot price they used — no shared costs, no disputes. KotiCharge collects payments directly from residents via the app and sends the housing company one refund payment each month together with a full usage report as a receipt. The housing company board and property manager have zero invoicing work.
