Authorisation

General

By granting this authorisation, the client authorises Compliance2Cash B.V. (hereinafter "Compliance2Cash") to register the electricity consumption of the client's charging point(s) in the Energy for Transport Register of the Dutch Emissions Authority (NEa) on the client's behalf.

This registration enables the administrative processing of charging consumption within the official system. The authorisation is granted for a minimum of one full calendar year and applies exclusively to electricity charged during that calendar year.

How it works

To register electricity, data is required regarding the connection, the charging point and the electricity charged, among other things. The client provides this data, after which Compliance2Cash verifies whether everything meets the legal requirements and administrative criteria. Compliance2Cash then registers the charged kWh in the NEa register.

Compliance2Cash will use its best efforts to accept submitted data and supporting evidence for registration.

Declarations and authorisations

The client hereby declares and authorises:

1. Electricity registration — Compliance2Cash to register electricity in the Energy for Transport Register on behalf of the client for the agreed calendar year.
2. NEa authorisation — The Dutch Emissions Authority (NEa) to request data about the relevant connection from the grid operator, if necessary, for the purpose of registration.
3. Charging point verification — The registration verifier of Compliance2Cash to verify whether the charging point and charging location meet the legal requirements for electricity registration. This verification may take place remotely or on-site, if necessary.
4. Exclusivity and prevention of double registration — The client declares that during the validity of this authorisation, no other registration service provider will be authorised for the same connection, and no consumption data will be provided to another party for the purpose of registering the same electricity consumption elsewhere in the Energy for Transport Register.
5. Data submission and assessment — Registration of electricity can take place after the data and supporting evidence requested by Compliance2Cash have been submitted correctly and completely and have been assessed and approved by Compliance2Cash.
6. Validity of the authorisation — The authorisation is valid for one full calendar year and is tacitly renewed thereafter.

• Client — The legal entity or natural person acting in the exercise of a profession or business that uses the services of Compliance2Cash.

• NEa — The Dutch Emissions Authority, being the government body that supervises the Emission Reduction Unit system.
• Certification body — The independent body that certifies and audits Compliance2Cash in accordance with applicable legislation and regulations.
• Service — The service consisting of registering charging consumption on behalf of the client and distributing the corresponding remuneration.

Article 2. Applicability

2.1 These General Terms and Conditions apply to all agreements and legal relationships between Compliance2Cash and the client.

2.2 Deviations from these terms are only valid if agreed in writing.

Article 3. Services

3.1 Compliance2Cash shall use its best efforts to register the charging consumption submitted by the client as Emission Reduction Units (ERE's) on the client's behalf.

3.2 Compliance2Cash provides a best-efforts obligation, not a guarantee of results.

3.3 The ultimate yield depends on market prices, regulations and acceptance by competent authorities and may therefore vary.

3.4 Registration of charging consumption takes place on the basis of data provided by the client and exclusively subject to acceptance by competent authorities. Compliance2Cash does not guarantee that submitted charging consumption will actually result in the allocation of ERE's.

Article 4. Authorisation and exclusivity

4.1 The client grants Compliance2Cash an exclusive authorisation to register the relevant charging consumption on the client's behalf.

4.2 The authorisation is entered into for a minimum duration of one (1) year and is tacitly renewed for one (1) year at a time. Termination may be effected with a notice period of one (1) month before the end of the current contract period.

4.3 The client is not permitted to have the same charging consumption registered or claimed simultaneously through another party.

4.4 The client shall indemnify Compliance2Cash against all damage, costs and claims from third parties arising from any breach of clause 4.3.

Article 5. Remuneration and costs

5.1 The client receives a remuneration per registered kWh, based on the yield of Emission Reduction Units (ERE's).

5.2 Compliance2Cash charges a commission of twenty percent (20%) on the gross yield of the realised ERE's. This commission covers, among other things, administration, registration, verification, certification and settlement. The commission is exclusive of VAT, insofar as VAT is applicable.

5.3 The net remuneration paid to the client is the gross yield minus the commission referred to in article 5.2.

5.4 Payment to the client takes place after the buyer of the ERE's has paid the relevant yield to Compliance2Cash.

5.5 Payment generally takes place in the first quarter (Q1) following the year in which the charging consumption took place.

5.6 If the client indicates upon submission of the charging consumption that earlier payment is desired and sufficient volume is available to enter into short-term contracts with ERE buyers, payment may take place earlier. Earlier payment constitutes a best-efforts obligation, not a guarantee.

5.7 The level of remuneration depends on market prices, acceptance by competent authorities and applicable legislation and regulations and may therefore vary.

5.8 Compliance2Cash reserves the right to adjust remunerations, commission, calculation methodology and payment moments if market conditions or regulations give cause to do so. Changes will be communicated in a timely manner via the client portal and/or by email. If the client does not agree with a change, the client may terminate the agreement in observance of the applicable notice period.

9.3 Upon termination of the agreement, the client remains entitled to payment of the remuneration for charging consumption already registered, in accordance with the conditions applicable at that time, unless the provisions of article 9.2 apply.
