How Much Does It Cost to Charge an Electric Car? 🤔 HOME vs PUBLIC | go-e

Imagine this: you’re cruising along in your electric car - your drive is quiet, smooth, and emission-free. But here’s the question everyone asks: how much does it cost to charge? And are there big differences between countries in Europe? In this video, we’ll break down the costs of charging - we’ll look at where it’s cheaper, where it’s more expensive, and a few simple ways you can save money. ▬ Video Content ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ 00:00 - 00:37: Intro EV Charging Costs 00:38 - 01:58: Costs of Home EV Charging 01:59 - 04:09: Costs of Public EV Charging 04:10 - 04:54: How to save money when charging your EV? 04:55 - 05:07: EV Charging at Work 05:08 - 06:08: Conclusion ▬ EV Charging at Home ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ EV Charging at home isn’t just the most convenient way - it’s also usually the most affordable. Of course, prices vary depending on where you live, on which tariff you’re on, and even on the time of the day you charge. In the UK, the average household electricity price is between 15 and 30 pence per kilowatt-hour - that’s roughly 17 to 35 euro cents. In Finland, it’s typically 10 to 25 cents per kwh. Across Europe, most people pay between 10 and 30 cents per kilowatt-hour, including VAT when charging at home - again, depending on the country and tariff. If you’re on a dynamic energy plan, you can sometimes charge for as little as 10 cents - or even less during off-peak hours. Electricity is usually cheapest at night, typically between 10 p.m. and 6 a.m., which makes overnight charging the most cost-effective option for many EV drivers. And if you’ve got solar panels on your roof, you can cut your costs even more. On sunny days, your car can run on your own free solar power - or on a smart mix of solar and grid energy. That’s where a smart wallbox really shines - it automatically optimises when and how your car charges to make the most of your self-generated electricity. ▬ Public EV Charging ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Public charging is a lifesaver on long trips, but let’s be honest - it’s also where things can get expensive. We have researched public DC fast-charging prices across several European countries. And trust me - the differences are massive. According to the European Alternative Fuels Observatory, Iceland and Finland are among the most affordable. There, ad hoc DC charging usually costs between 20 and 40 cents per kilowatt-hour. So driving 100 kilometres costs about 8 to 17 euros for a 10-80% recharge. Pretty good, right? Then we move up the scale. The UK comes in at around 45 to 60 cents per kilowatt-hour, which is mid-range. In Denmark, costs are slightly higher at 50 to 70 cents per kilowatt-hour. And then there are the real surprises… Slovenia and Norway. They currently rank among the most expensive countries in Europe for public DC charging. In some cases, prices go up to €1.50 per kilowatt-hour - for just 100 kilometres, you could be paying €60 or €70 for a 10 to 80% recharge. That’s three to four times the amount you’d pay in Finland. Incredible, right? But it’s important to say - these are the highest-end examples. Prices in both Norway and Slovenia can vary greatly depending on the provider, the charging speed, and the chosen tariff. So while there are premium rates at some stations, you can also find more affordable options, occasionally even close to the prices seen in Finland. Across Europe, most people pay between 45 and 70 cents per kilowatt-hour for public DC charging, and a bit more at HPC (high-power) chargers. Here is a tip: If you charge often, consider a subscription plan with your mobility provider - it usually gives you a lower per-kWh price. But if you only charge occasionally, ad-hoc payments might still be the cheaper option. And remember: The final cost per 100 km depends on charging speed, provider, and location. It can easily vary by around 7 euros. ▬ Conclusion ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ So, looking at the numbers for 2025 - across the UK, Finland, Denmark, and much of Europe - one thing is crystal clear: charging at home remains the most affordable way to power your electric car. If you’ve got solar panels, or flexible tariffs, or even tax incentives for home or company car charging, you can reduce your costs even further. Public charging is often convenient and flexible and allows for greater flexibility - but it often costs twice as much as plugging it in at home. So whenever you can, charge smart, charge local - and let your wallbox do the heavy lifting. #evcharging #Wallbox #ElectricCars #EVChargingStation #goe ▬ go-e Blog ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ https://go-e.com/en/magazine ▬ go-e Shop ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ https://shop.go-e.com/ Follow us: ➡️ Website: https://go-e.com/en/ ➡️ YouTube:    / @go-e   ➡️ Instagram:   / goe.official   ➡️ Facebook:   / goe.mobility   ➡️ LinkedIn:   / go-e-gmbh   ➡️ TikTok:   / go.e.official
