From charge to quarterly payout
Zeres is a registration service for EREs with the Dutch Emissions Authority. We handle the entire process: from reading your charging data to the payout to your account.
How it works in six steps
Sign up or request a quote
Private customers sign up via the form. Businesses and HOAs receive a quote that immediately serves as order confirmation: all our terms are included.
Registration with the NEa
We register your charger(s) with the Dutch Emissions Authority and arrange the mandate. You will receive an email confirmation.
Automatic reading or manual submission
We connect via OCPP or API to your charger or CPO back-office. If that fails? Submit your kWh's yourself per quarter via the portal, WhatsApp, app or email.
Include PV energy (businesses & HOAs)
Self-generated energy from solar panels counts 100% (vs. ~50% for grid). We calculate the exact share of PV energy that went to the charger automatically.
Register and trade
We register your kWh's with the NEa, which converts them to EREs. We trade those EREs ourselves on the emissions market — no middleman, maximum market price.
Quarterly payout
Every quarter we calculate your net proceeds (EREs × market price − 1.5% emissions market fees − our commission) and pay out. With detailed report and self-billing invoice for businesses.
What does it cost and what do you get back
Our commission
Private: 19% incl. VAT, each renewal year –1% (down to min. 14%). Businesses/HOAs: 16% ex VAT, each renewal year –1% (down to min. 11%).
Extra costs
Private customers: none. Businesses/HOAs: one-time € 150 ex VAT for the mandatory NEa audit (waived at >50,000 EREs).
Contract form
Annual contract with 1 month notice. Cancel by November 30 at the latest for the next calendar year.
Revenue guarantee
We don't guarantee a fixed price — the ERE market fluctuates (€ 0.40–€ 0.51). We time the sale for maximum revenue, but not every kWh yields the same.
