Pricing model
E-mobility businesses in India can select any of the following pricing structures despite the fact that flat costs per session and tariffs based only on time spent charging are no longer permitted :
- price per unit of electricity consumed (kWh)
- price per unit of electricity consumed (kWh) + time component
- starting fee + price per unit of electricity consumed (kWh) + time component
- flat rate model based on monthly or yearly payments
- price calculated based on the time spent parking (regardless of time spent charging)
Price transparency
According to the Alternative Fuel Infrastructure Directive (AFID) and MessEG, e-mobility companies also need to communicate charging information to the driver in a transparent way.
For CPOs and EMSPs in the Indian market, this means that they need to keep a detailed record of the amount of energy supplied during each charge session.
This information must be shared with drivers on their invoice, while every effort is made to protect sensitive user data from third parties.
