Setting public opening hours for your Locations

Updated

This article will guide you in setting public opening hours for your Locations.

 

Set opening hours for a Location

If you have charge points at locations you want to keep open to the public at certain times but closed for specific users at another time, you can do so with the opening hours feature.

This feature gives you the opportunity to define hourly intervals of the week during which charge points at a given Location can be viewed, accessed, and utilized by all end-users.

Outside of opening hours, only specified users can access and use the location.

This enables you to reserve specific times of the week where your own fleet of users can be guaranteed a spot for charging, and to use the Location to earn revenue through public charging the rest of the time.

Navigate to Location:

    1. Go to the Opening Hours tab
    2. Click Edit Opening Hours
    3. Set the Location for public sharing
    4. Choose which days of the week and at what time each day the Location should be open to the public
      1. You can add multiple time intervals to a day (e.g. “8:00 - 16:00” and “20:00 - 23:00”)
    5. Click Save

 

Specifying users who are granted charging access outside of opening hours

A user has access to the Location at all times if:

  1. The user has an active charge key with the Location attached to its group
  2. The user has an active voucher with the Location attached to its group
