Clever’s charging network
Clever’s charging network

If you find yourself outside of the Danish boarders, you will also find Clever’s charging stations – both in Germany, Sweden and other Nordic countries. By using Clever’s app, you can easily find charging stations on the way by using Clever’s app.

Installation of a charging station at home
Installation of a charging station at home
Clever’s experienced electricians will assess if an at-home-charging-solution is possible at your home, if so, they will ensure a safe and correct installation of the charging station. When the electrician is done, you are free to recharge your electric car as you please.
New energy fee for Complete subscriptions
New energy fee for Complete subscriptions
Europe is facing an energy crisis characterised by historically high electricity prices, and so Clever has been left with no option but to introduce a fee on their subscriptions. Customers with a Clever Complete subscription will now be charged an energy fee which takes fluctuating electricity prices into account and will therefore vary in line with the market rate. This fee is not based on the kWh usage of the company car-user but rather on an average of 500 kWh per month for an electric car and 250 kWh per month for a plug-in hybrid. This means there are only two energy fees to consider – one for electric cars and one for plug-in hybrids.
Intelligent charging directly from the driveway
With intelligent charging enabled on Clever's charging box, car users can easily charge their car when the electricity price is lower and the CO2 footprint is lower. At the same time, charging is pushed outside the grid's busiest hours. The app tells you how much to charge and when to use the car. Then every day the system sets a new intelligent charging plan completely automatically.
Another advantage is the possible profit that one can get on the reimbursement. Intelligent charging ensures that the car user charges in the cheapest hours, while the reimbursement rate is an average of all the hours of the night – including the more expensive ones.
Of course, the car user is always in full control and can start charging immediately if needed.
