Earn from every kWh with Lekkerladen and Plugchoice
Lekkerladen is a Dutch ERE booking service provider. Connect it to Plugchoice and your charging sessions are turned into green energy certificates automatically, with the revenue paid back to the charger owner.
What Lekkerladen is and why it runs well on Plugchoice
Lekkerladen is a licensed booking service provider (inboekdienstverlener) for the Dutch ERE scheme. ERE stands for emissiereductie-eenheid, an Emission Reduction Unit: one unit equals one kilogram of CO2-equivalent emissions saved. Charging an electric car on a station with a MID-certified meter produces these units, and fuel suppliers are obliged to buy them to meet their fuel transition targets, so they carry real value. Lekkerladen registers them with the Dutch Emissions Authority (NEa) through the Register Energie voor Vervoer and pays the proceeds back to the charger owner, minus its commission.
Plugchoice sits between your chargers and Lekkerladen. The charger stays connected to your own backoffice through the OCPP Proxy, while Plugchoice normalizes the session data across every charger brand and hands Lekkerladen one clean, verified feed. The owner authorizes Lekkerladen once and the certificates flow on their own from there.

How to authorize Lekkerladen from the Plugchoice app
Charge as usual
Drivers charge on a station with a MID-certified meter. Plugchoice records each session across every charger brand.
Authorize Lekkerladen once
The charger owner picks Lekkerladen as their booking provider and authorizes it once via OAuth in the Plugchoice app.
Lekkerladen registers the kWh
Lekkerladen takes the verified session data and registers the certificates with the Dutch Emissions Authority on the owner's behalf.
Get paid the share
Lekkerladen sells the certificates and pays the proceeds back to the owner, keeping its commission. Nothing else to manage.
Frequently asked questions
What is ERE?
ERE stands for emissiereductie-eenheid, or Emission Reduction Unit. It is the Dutch scheme that rewards renewable energy in transport: charging an electric car on grid electricity saves CO2, and each kilogram saved becomes one ERE. Fuel suppliers buy these units to meet their fuel transition obligations, which gives them real value.
What does Lekkerladen do exactly?
Lekkerladen is a licensed booking service provider. It takes your verified charging sessions, registers the certificates with the Dutch Emissions Authority (NEa), sells them on the regulated market and pays the proceeds back to you, minus its commission.
Do I need a special meter?
Yes. Only kWh measured by a MID-certified meter count for ERE. Most modern chargers have one. Plugchoice flags which chargers in your fleet are eligible.
How does Lekkerladen get my charging data?
Through Plugchoice. You authorize Lekkerladen once, and Plugchoice sends it verified session data over the API, normalized across every charger brand. There is nothing to export by hand.
Can I keep my existing backoffice?
Yes. The OCPP Proxy keeps your charger connected to your current backoffice while Plugchoice supplies the ERE data to Lekkerladen at the same time. Plugchoice runs in parallel and does not disrupt it.
Can I switch booking providers later?
Yes. Plugchoice stays connected and keeps supplying verified session data, so you can change or add a booking provider whenever you want, without touching the charger or your existing backoffice.
What does it cost?
Lekkerladen works on commission, so there are no upfront costs. It keeps a 25% share of the certificate value and pays out the rest. Charger management on Plugchoice is free.
