Charging without upfront investment

Do you want to implement charging infrastructure without using your investment budget? With our operating model, we take care of the complete implementation and operation of your charging solution. You make the location available; we arrange advice, financing, installation, management and maintenance. This shifts a major investment (CAPEX) to predictable operating costs (OPEX), while your organisation benefits from a future-proof energy and charging solution without operational concerns.

No investment costs


No budget is needed for purchasing or installing charging stations. Instead, you benefit from a predictable operating model that may also offer financial and accounting advantages.

Complete peace of mind


We manage the process from A to Z, including technology, maintenance, faults, payments and user questions.

AC & DC solutions


For both AC and DC charging solutions, we help you with a range of financing options.

A sustainable charging hub, fully managed

Electric driving is growing rapidly, as is the need for reliable charging facilities. With our operating model, we invest in the charging solution, handle the installation and take full responsibility for management and maintenance.

Depending on the location and charging volume, an attractive operating and revenue model can also be created for both parties. Energy costs are automatically credited on a monthly basis.

Depending on the location, energy consumption and charging volume, an attractive operating model can be created for both 50five and the site owner. Examples include logistics sites, business parks, retail environments or real estate locations where a combination of energy consumption, charging traffic and available space creates an interesting business case.

Charging as a Service

From a single charging station to a fully integrated charging hub, without major upfront investment. With Charging as a Service, we handle financing, installation, maintenance, monitoring, management and replacement, while your organisation benefits from predictable costs and reliable infrastructure.

Battery as a Service

In addition to charging solutions, 50five offers battery storage as a service. This enables organisations to limit peak loads, make smarter use of available grid capacity and respond more quickly to challenges such as grid congestion, without investing in battery technology themselves.

How does it work?

Step 1
Introduction

We discuss your location, requirements and target group. We also look at the current use of the car park and the expected charging needs.

Step 2
Tailored proposal

You will receive a tailored proposal covering the technical solution, financing model, partnership and possible compensation, including a comparison with your own investment.

Step 3
Installation

After approval, we install the charging points. We coordinate the planning carefully so that the impact on your daily operations remains limited.

Step 4
Charging and management

The charging points are put into operation. From that moment on, we provide (proactive) monitoring, management, maintenance, support and administrative handling.

Tailored solutions, even for complex situations

We look at the available grid capacity and apply smart solutions where needed, from dynamic load balancing to a complete EMS system. This ensures that the available capacity is used and distributed efficiently and that overload is prevented at all times. 50five always offers a solution that truly works and presents an ambitious yet realistic picture. With more than 160,000 charging points under management and 10 years of experience, we can assure you of this.

This approach is particularly interesting for locations where grid reinforcement is expensive, where lead times for a new connection are long, or where a combination of energy generation, storage and charging infrastructure creates an attractive business case.

Customer Cases

We looked into various providers. After comparing prices and execution speed, it became clear that 50five was the most suitable partner for us. Since the electric vehicles for the Diamant-groep had already been ordered, fast installation of the charging stations was essential.

We preferred a fast charger so people can continue their work without being hindered. What ultimately made the difference was the strong price–quality ratio.

Frequently asked questions

Do we need to invest in the charging stations ourselves?

No. Within this model, 50five covers the investment. You provide the location, and we take care of the financing, installation, and operation.

Who manages the charging stations after installation?

We manage the charging stations. This means we are responsible for monitoring, maintenance, malfunctions, payments, and user support.

Will we receive compensation?

You will always be reimbursed for the energy costs when we use your grid connection. This means your organization never loses money from visitors using the charging stations. In addition, there may be an additional revenue model for your organization, either in the form of a fixed or variable compensation per kWh. This depends on the location, charging volume, and the agreements within the partnership.

Is this suitable for a single charging station or mainly for larger locations?

Both are possible. We assess each location individually to determine what makes the most sense technically, commercially, and operationally.

What if there is limited grid capacity available?

In that case, we investigate smart solutions such as load balancing, phased expansion, or a tailored charging plan. The starting point is always a reliable solution that fits within the possibilities of your location. In our consultancy, we always take your specific situation and contracted power capacity into account.

What is the difference between investing yourself and Charging as a Service?

With your own investment, your organisation finances the infrastructure itself and is responsible for management, maintenance and replacement. With Charging as a Service, 50five takes over these responsibilities. This means you do not have to make a major upfront investment and you benefit from a fully managed solution.

Does an operating model offer financial advantages?

For many organisations, an operating model offers greater financial flexibility because investment costs are replaced by predictable operating costs. The advantages this provides vary depending on the organisation and financing structure.
