The standard (22kW AC) network will continue to be free to use while it is upgraded over the coming months.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How does the new pricing scheme work?<\/strong><br \/>\nUnder the new pricing scheme, there will be two price plans available for the fast chargers, Pay As You Go or Membership,<\/p>\n<p>Pay as you go -Pay As You Go is charged at 33c per kWh.<br \/>\n&#8211; Membership is a \u20ac5 monthly subscription fee and a reduced charge of 29c per kWh. This is designed for drivers who typically use the network more than five times per month: Electric vehicle drivers can avail of an Introductory Offer for a limited time (from 29th October until the end of November) that provides the Membership rate with no monthly subscription for 12 months.<\/p>\n<p><strong>So how much does that actually work out at?<\/strong><br \/>\nOn the current Electric Ireland night rate, charging a Hyundai Kona from 0-100% would cost around \u20ac6.29 ( night rate of 10c). If you were to charge during the day the cost would be \u20ac11.94. By comparison, if you charge on the public fast-charging network it would cost \u20ac21.12. However it&#8217;s worth remembering that most people won&#8217;t charge from 0 \u2013 100% but rather its more likely that they will charge from 20% to 80% and the cost, in this case, would be \u20ac12.67. Also if you opt for the subscription model the cost will be \u20ac11.13. To work out costs for your own electric car or an electric car you might be thinking about buying you simply multiply the size of the battery, eg 64kWh, by the charging rate, 33c for Pay as you go or 29c for the Subscription model.
