Employee charging without a queue or an argument
Workplace charging starts as a perk and becomes a rota. Demand outstrips bays within months, the same cars occupy them all day, and facilities ends up mediating. The fix is allocation and pricing rather than more hardware — most workplace sites are constrained by fairness long before they are constrained by power.
Workplaces & campuses
Does this sound familiar
Where you probably are right now
- 01You run an office park, IT campus, factory or hospital with employee parking.
- 02More employees want to charge than you have bays for.
- 03Cars stay plugged in for the whole working day whether charging or not.
- 04Finance wants the electricity cost recovered or at least accounted for.
What gets in the way
The problems, and what answers each one
Every answer links to the feature that does the work, so you can check the claim rather than take it.
Demand exceeds bays and allocation feels arbitrary
Driver groups and per-driver limits cap how much any one employee can take in a day or a month, and time-based pricing after a threshold makes all-day occupancy expensive without banning it.
Employees should not be paying at a card machine
RFID or app authorisation with no payment step, and consumption accumulated to a monthly statement that can be recovered through payroll or absorbed as a benefit.
The connection cannot support every bay at full power
Site load sharing spreads available capacity across active sessions. A working day is long enough that a shared 7kW gets everyone to a useful state of charge.
Employees with a company car charge at home
Home sessions on a managed charger are recorded with their own meter values and rolled into the same statement, so reimbursement is evidenced rather than estimated.
What changes
What you can do that you could not before
- Bays shared across more employees than a first-come rule allows
- Charging cost recovered or accounted for per employee
- Home charging reimbursed on meter readings rather than estimates
- More connectors installed behind the connection you already have
Commercial shape
Private-network pricing
Workplace charging has no retail payment leg, so the platform fee follows connectors and energy managed rather than a share of driver payments.

Questions
What people in your position ask
Can we cap how much each employee charges?
Yes — per-driver daily and monthly limits on both energy and spend, set per group so a field engineer and an office employee can have different allowances.
Can visitors and contractors use the same chargers?
Yes, at a different rate and optionally in different time windows. Their sessions are separated in reporting so employee cost recovery stays clean.
Do we need one charger per employee who drives an EV?
Almost never. With load sharing and a limit that stops one car monopolising a bay, workplace sites typically serve two to three employees per connector across a working day.
