To determine what share of your electricity bill can be attributed to the charging of your electric or plug-in hybrid company vehicle, we look at the charging station’s consumption figures (in kWh). These are recorded by a calibrated meter installed within the unit (the ‘consumption’). Only consumption recorded while charging with the public charge card will be reimbursed.

Situation 1: MobilityPlus reimburses the charging sessions
When your employer decides that MobilityPlus will take care of the reimbursement, we apply the CREG rate for Belgian companies in most cases. This rate is the national average electricity price all-in. For Dutch companies, we use the rates of the Centraal Bureau voor de Statistiek.

CREG rate
You can view these rates on the CREG website. At the top of the page, click "Download de boordtabel van MM/YYYY". Then go to page 3. On the 'Gemiddelde commerciële elektriciteitsprijs (all-in)' line in column 'BE' for the month in question, you will find the rate applied.
This rate is updated monthly. -
Rate Centraal Bureau voor de Statistiek (CBS)
Consult these monthly rates on the ‘Centraal Bureau voor de Statistiek’ website. The monthly rate used is the sum of the value at 'Variable delivery rate contract prices' (column 9) + the value at 'Energy tax' (column 12).
MobilityPlus applies the most recent rate available at the time the allowances and expense invoices are issued.
If the CREG rate for the previous month would not yet have been published at the time of calculation, we use the rate of the previous month.
Every month, you will receive an overview of these registered charging sessions and their respective cost by email. This will let you know the amount that will be reimbursed.
MobilityPlus will pay your reimbursement into your personal account on a monthly basis. During your audit, MobilityPlus will request your bank details. For reasons of privacy, your employer will not play any part in these transactions. This means you must submit your payment details to MobilityPlus directly.
In the MobilityPlus app, you can easily monitor your expense notes and their reimbursement. Read more here.
We are not liable for any deviations from this average rate (above or below the average).
Exception: in some situations the employer decides to apply a fixed reimbursement per kWh.
Reimbursement planning
Reimbursements and expense reports are on the 7th day of each month, with the latter document tracking the charging sessions for the previous month. If that day coincides with the weekend or a public holiday, it will be the next working day. When a charging station was temporarily offline / faulty, these sessions are included in the following month's document.
Your employer also receives an invoice on the 7th day. As soon as we have received and processed your employer's payment, we reimburse you. Every 2 days we make this check/reimbursement.
Situation 2: Your employer is responsible for reimbursing the charging sessions
If your employer is responsible for reimbursing the charging sessions, he will receive on the 7th of a new month an overview from us of the charging sessions of the past month. He can rely on this for the reimbursement. If that day coincides with the weekend or a public holiday, it will be the next working day.
Either the CREG rate is used (for Dutch companies, the rate of the Centraal Bureau voor de Statistiek) or your employer opts for a fixed reimbursement per kWh.
