Points are awarded for participating in equivents. Read on to learn more.
equivents
During equivents, we temporarily pause your EV's charging for 1 hr, when electricity is more carbon-intensive and expensive or when the grid is under significant pressure.
PLEASE NOTE: You must have a smart meter with half-hourly data connected to your equiwatt account to be able to earn points for taking part in an equivent.
Every time your EV participates in an equivent, you will earn points according to the amount of peak energy and CO2 your EV has saved by pausing its charging.
Depending on your chargers power consumption and the make and model of your EV we would expect you to earn between 50 to 105 points per equivent.

As well as rewarding you for saving energy with your EV, equiwatt can also help you earn points for saving energy inside your house.
