Unique in Europe: reev electricity tariff lowers energy costs, reduces emissions and integrates charging infrastructure into the energy system
The energy transition needs intelligent solutions. reev, the leading energy and charging platform in the semi-public sector, is therefore launching the reev electricity tariff on the market: a dynamic tariff that makes charging infrastructure an active part of the energy system.
Companies, fleet operators and the real estate industry benefit from up to 85% lower electricity procurement costs, 100% renewable energy and intelligent energy management that automatically shifts charging processes to the most favorable hours. The result: up to 30 percent lower costs per kilowatt hour of electricity (working price) – thanks to targeted charging in time windows with a high proportion of wind and solar power, without any additional effort.
Economy meets sustainability
The reev electricity tariff merges the European electricity market with the intelligent energy management of the reev platform and thus with the charging infrastructures of all reev customers. With the help of price signals and AI-driven optimization algorithms, charging processes are automatically shifted to periods when a particularly large amount of wind and solar power is generated. Assuming that a company has an existing tariff with a fixed working price of 35 cents/kWh, this would fall to 25 cents/kWh with the dynamic and optimized reev electricity tariff, while at the same time reducing emissions. This means that companies not only save costs, but also make a direct contribution to the energy transition.
“With the dynamic reev electricity tariff, we are building a bridge between economic efficiency and sustainability. Electromobility is thus developing from a pure consumer infrastructure into a shaping force in the energy market. This is a decisive step towards linking energy and mobility in Europe in an intelligent and sustainable way,” says Eduard Schlutius, CEO of reev.
How the tariff works
The price basis for the reev electricity tariff is the European electricity market: electricity is traded on the day-ahead market for the following day, whereby prices are set for each quarter of an hour. These are fed directly into the reev platform . The integrated energy management system (EMS) analyzes the price data and automatically shifts charging processes to the cheapest hours. Even with just a few charging points, electricity procurement costs fall significantly compared to traditional fixed-price tariffs – without having to take any action yourself. At the same time, the proportion of renewable energy increases, as the cheapest hours with a high proportion of photovoltaic and wind power are used in particular.
Artificial intelligence can also be used to avoid peak loads and adapt charging times to individual requirements – for example, when vehicles need to be ready for use. In this way, the complex energy market is translated into concrete economic benefits for every company with a charging infrastructure.
Downtimes become saving times
Whether a small company with just a few charging points, a medium-sized business with a fleet of 30 vehicles or a large office or commercial campus with hundreds of charging points – the reev electricity tariff ensures that the long downtimes of electric vehicles during the day become cost benefits. The real estate industry can also supply entire buildings or districts with the dynamic tariff and thus make energy consumption significantly more efficient. Here, too, vehicles are often parked for many hours, which can be used for low-cost and sustainable charging. In apartment buildings, vehicles are not only connected during the day, but also overnight. These long idle times open up additional opportunities for savings – because electricity prices are particularly low at night due to low demand.
The reev electricity tariff goes far beyond the charging infrastructure: it can cover the entire energy requirements of a location – from lighting to heating systems or heat pumps. This creates a new level of simplicity: one tariff, fewer costs, no effort.
Unique in Europe
“The combination of the reev electricity tariff, our energy management system and AI-driven optimization creates a tool that is unique in Europe. We are not only making dynamic electricity prices accessible, but also practical and easy to use. This is the basis for the next big step: the fully integrated connection of energy, charging infrastructure and mobility,” adds Dr. Moritz Bohland, Head of Energy at reev.
Looking to the future: electric vehicles as power plants
The introduction of the reev electricity tariff is more than just a market launch – it marks the beginning of a new era. Customers are already saving energy costs and charging with 100 percent renewable energy. Tomorrow, the vision will be even bigger: with vehicle-to-grid (V2G), millions of electric vehicles will become mobile storage units and thus an invisible, Europe-wide power plant. They not only charge green, but also actively stabilize the power grid and feed energy back into it.
Availability – start easily and flexibly
The new reev electricity tariff is available immediately and can be taken out directly via the reev website. And best of all: reev takes care of all the details relating to the switch from the previous provider – with no switching costs, no long-term commitment and can be terminated at any time on a monthly basis.
