EVSE AC 22 kW — Schneider EVlink Pro AC EVB3S22N4A — Finland Hotel Destination Charger — TCO & Landed Cost (Illustrative)

Verdict. On the bounded scenario computed here, the 20-year PV of benefits is EUR 53,410.72 (NPV), with EV TCO of EUR 0.0800/km versus ICE TCO of EUR 0.2660/km — a saving of EUR 0.1860/km, scaling to EUR 148,800.00 over the horizon. Simple payback and discounted payback both compute to 0.0 years (an artefact of the bounded zero-cost default; not a forecast). Proceed to RFQ only after confirming the EU TARIC national line for Finland, the EU duty rate, the Finnish VAT rate, and the OEM manual-revision lock on torque / SOC / voltage limits. Modelled asset: one (1) Schneider EVlink Pro AC / AC Metal 22 kW three-phase Type 2 socket (reference EVB3S22N4A) at a Finnish hotel destination site. Route: China → Finland. Horizon: 20 years. Discount rate: 8.00 %. Evidence date: 2026-09-22.

ILLUSTRATIVE — NOT A QUOTE. The computations below are reproduced verbatim from the scenario model. They are not a Tradvolt quotation, not an OEM price list, and not a customs ruling. All CapEx line items, wholesale kWh, monthly fixed OpEx, EU duty, and Finnish VAT remain PENDING and must be confirmed before procurement.

1. Equipment being modelled

Procedural SOP with limits is N/A — modelling is TCO only. Torque settings for terminal blocks, SOC window for connected EVs, and supported grid voltage tolerances are defined in the OEM installation manual for EVB3S22N4A (revision to be locked at RFQ). The scenario model did not consume those procedural limits; the TCO is unit-economic and does not depend on installer torque, vehicle SOC, or grid-voltage tolerance bands. Reproduce the OEM manual title and revision in the RFQ reply before procurement.

6. Computed TCO — summary (verbatim from scenario model)

TCO summary
Metric	Value
Currency	EUR
Horizon (years)	20
Discount rate	8.00 %
Total undiscounted cost (EUR)	0.0000
Total discounted cost / PV of costs (EUR)	0.0000
Total undiscounted benefit (EUR)	108,800.00
Total discounted benefit (EUR)	53,410.72
NPV (EUR)	53,410.72
IRR	n/a
Simple payback (year)	0.0000
Discounted payback (year)	0.0000
TCO per km — EV (EUR/km)	0.0800
TCO per km — ICE (EUR/km)	0.2660
Savings per km (EUR/km)	0.1860
Savings over horizon (EUR)	148,800.00

All numbers above are reproduced verbatim from the scenario model. They are derived from bounded model defaults (see §8) because the operational invoice (CapEx line items, wholesale kWh, monthly fixed OpEx, EU duty, Finnish VAT) was not provided. Simple payback = 0.0 and discounted payback = 0.0 are a direct consequence of the bounded default that total cost = 0 in every modelled year; treat as a model artefact, not a forecast.

9. Frequently asked questions

Q1. What HS code applies to AC EVSE imported into Finland?

The HS classification for the EV charging equipment must be verified against the official EU TARIC database for Finland at the time of import. Treat the HS national line as PENDING — perform the lookup before any quotation. Lookup tool: https://ec.europa.eu/taxation_customs/dds2/taric/taric_consultation.jsp?Lang=en.

Q2. Which compliance marks should a 22 kW AC charger carry for the Finnish market?

Confirm CE marking under Low Voltage Directive 2014/35/EU (EUR-Lex), EMC Directive 2014/30/EU (EUR-Lex) and — if wireless / cellular present — Radio Equipment Directive 2014/53/EU (EUR-Lex). Confirm IEC 61851-1:2017 compliance (IEC Webstore) and IEC 62196-2:2022 ed. 3 Type 2 connector compatibility (IEC Webstore) by serial-number-matched certificate bundle from the OEM.

Q3. What does this TCO actually say?

On the bounded default inputs, the 20-year PV of benefits is EUR 53,410.72 with no modelled cost, yielding NPV = EUR 53,410.72. Per-kilometre basis: TCO EUR 0.0800/km (EV) vs EUR 0.2660/km (ICE) → saving EUR 0.1860/km. Simple payback and discounted payback both compute to 0.0 years on these defaults; that is an artefact of the bounded zero-cost default and must not be quoted as a forecast. Replace the bounded defaults listed in §8 with verified values before quoting a payback figure.

Q4. Can EVSE be imported under a special customs procedure in Finland?

Possible procedures include inward processing, end-use, or ATA Carnet, depending on use case. Eligibility and conditions must be confirmed with Finnish Customs (Tulli) and EU TARIC at the time of import. Reference: https://tulli.fi/.

Q5. What OpEx line items should a hotel budget for?

Electricity wholesale cost, cellular / network connectivity, OCPP 1.6 JSON backend subscription, preventive maintenance, insurance allocation, and a depreciation reserve (useful life assumed 8 years; confirm against the OEM manual revision at RFQ).

Q6. How do I get the OEM datasheet and certificate copies?

Submit an RFQ via tradvolt.com/rfq/ and request the OEM certificate bundle (model EVB3S22N4A, serial range, manual revision) as a reply attachment.
