CPO business case · smart charging
Someone benefits from smart charging. The only question is who.
The revenue and the support tickets already exist inside your fleet today. Own the smart charging layer under your own brand and both move in your favour. Plug in your own numbers to size the benefit.
Revenue
charge points × adoption × monthly uplift × 12
Share of users on a smart tier. Not optional means not 20%.
Your revenue on the smart tier, per point, per month. The Scopt licence is already built into this price.
Support cost you save
charge points × adoption × tickets × minutes saved × cost per hour
You see the mode, the session and the result. No manuals for ten apps you don't run.
Handling time in your portal is not shorter than blind, so no support saving is counted.
Your annual benefit under your own brand
€462K/yr
That's what the smart charging layer is worth to you each year: €336,000 revenue captured + €126,000 support saved. Don't own it, and it simply isn't yours.
The uplift and the tickets are already there. Own the layer under your own brand and both work for you. Leave it, and someone else keeps the upside.
Illustrative model. Plug in your own ticket volume, handling time and rates to size the real case. Revenue shown is your own revenue on the smart tier.
Let's go through your numbers together.
Thirty minutes. Your chargers, your CPMS, your ticket data. We'll build the case together and show you the platform live.

Frequently asked questions
How is the annual benefit calculated?
It is the sum of two parts. Revenue: charge points × adoption × monthly uplift × 12. Support saved: charge points × adoption × tickets per charge point per year × minutes saved per ticket × support cost per hour.
What is a realistic adoption rate for smart charging?
That depends on your proposition. The simulator starts at 70% as an example. When smart charging is part of your standard tier instead of an option, adoption is higher than when it is an add-on. Use your own figure.
Is the Scopt licence included in the uplift?
Yes. The monthly uplift is your revenue on the smart tier per charge point, with the Scopt licence already built into that price.
Why does smart charging under my own brand lower support cost?
When a driver calls about a third-party app, you cannot see the mode or the session, so tickets take longer. In your own portal you see the mode, the session and the result, which shortens the handling time per ticket.
