Need Employees of Scania is encouraged to use environmentally friendly vehicles commuting to work.

Scania needed a cost-effective solution for re-sale of electricity that needed to comply with benefit in kind taxation. The solution also needed to be able to manage electric load and show live maps over available outlets, avoiding employees wasting time by looking for available outlets

Solution By reselling electricity to employees Scania does not need to administer benefit in kind taxation and at the same time achieving an economically sustainable solution.

Scania opted for offering 10A ”slow charging” via outlets connected to EpSpot session-based electricity meters and the EpSpot RTTS service. Employees need to download the EpSpot app and register for access to the service in the employee portal “Scania for me” to get access to the outlet infrastructure. The vehicle is connected to an outlet, the outlet QR code is scanned, terms and condition is accepted and the electricity is switched on.

Electricity consumption is debited monthly directly for each employee’s salary. Necessary reports are also produced to handle VAT and Energy taxation. Thanks to the cost-effective ness of the EpSpot system Scania can offer attractive electricity pricing.
