Turn EV Charging Data into Revenue
Maximize Your ROI with Automated Fuel Credit Management
Operating EV chargers does more than support sustainability—it turns kilowatt-hours into tradable clean fuel credits. Across several states and provinces, regulatory programs reward EV site hosts for dispensing low-carbon fuel. However, measuring compliance, managing regulatory reporting portals, and monetizing credits can be an administrative burden.
Liberty Plugins handles the heavy lifting. Our advanced metering automatically captures utility-grade session data, organizes your quarterly filings, and coordinates with registered market brokers to monetize your credits—returning 100% of net proceeds directly to you.
Why Partner with Liberty Plugins for Fuel Credits?
- Turnkey Data Collection: Our smart metering tracks precise kilowatt-hours dispensed, charger types, and session metrics required by clean fuel regulators—no manual meter reading or spreadsheets.
- Quarterly Regulatory Filing: We format, validate, and submit your dispensing data to regional regulatory tools every quarter, ensuring your reporting is compliant and on schedule.
- Broker Coordination: Through registered broker partners, your verified credits are bundled and sold on the market at competitive clearing prices.

You receive 100% of net proceeds – we do not participate in the financial returns
* Net proceeds are returned only where all prior steps are satisfied — including CARB acceptance of submitted data, successful credit issuance, and availability of funds after applicable transaction costs. No distribution is guaranteed in any period. While illustrated using California’s LCFS model, this step-by-step process is functionally identical for clean fuel programs in OR, WA, and Canada.
