Make the car park part of the stay.

What does De Energy Hub do for a hotel or guesthouse?

De Energy Hub is a booking app for EV charging and parking. A hotel, B&B, guesthouse, hostel or resort lists its chargers, its car park or both, sets its own rates and hours, and drivers book through the app. Reception can book a bay for a guest, guests can book ahead themselves, and a promo code from De Energy Hub can make charging a guest perk. Every booking shows who made it. It works with the EV chargers you already own.

Who it is for
Hotels, B&Bs, guesthouses, hostels and resorts
What you list
A Charging Hub, a Parking Hub, or both linked as Park & Charge
Guests
Book ahead or scan the QR code at the bay. They need the app and an account to check in, or reception can book for them.
Your earnings
You keep 100% of the rate you set on full-price bookings. A 15% service fee and VAT are added on top and shown before the guest pays.
Set-up
Create a host account, add your hubs and print your QR codes. Typically under an hour. See every setup screen
How it works
Booking, hubs, promo codes and QR codes are explained once, with screenshots. See the app features
One car park, four guests

Same car park. Four very different guests.

Without a booking system, chargers are first come, first served and the bays cause arguments. With one, each guest books what they need and you see who booked what. Pick a guest to see how it works.

A guest wants to charge overnight

They book a bay ahead of their stay, or scan the QR code at the bay on arrival. Link your Parking Hub and Charging Hub and one booking covers the space and the charger, with one payment and the breakdown shown. They book the time they need to charge fully at that charger's speed, see the total before they confirm, and check in through the booking.

Reception books the bay for a guest

You book a bay or charger for a guest, or for yourself, in the app. The guest and the host both receive a booking confirmation email. The guest needs De Energy Hub app and an account to check in, and the email or phone number on their account must match the booking details. You are notified at check-in and check-out, and every booking shows who made it.

A wedding or event fills the car park

List a Parking Hub, set the days and hours it is available, and state the event dates in the hub's rules and instructions. Guests book a space ahead, priced per 30-minute slot at your weekday or weekend rate. Reminders go out shortly before a booking ends, at the end time, and shortly after if the guest has not checked out.

A driver on the road finds your charger

Every hub is public, so any driver, including company vehicles and fleets, can find your charger or car park on the map and book before they set off. You set the rate and the hours, and you see every booking and who made it.

Six things a hotel car park gets asked, and the fix

Each one links to the full walkthrough on the features page.

1

"Can I charge overnight? The charger is always taken."

Guests book ahead. They pick a charger and a time in the app, or scan the QR code at the bay, so they know before they arrive that it is booked for them.

How booking works →
2

"Can reception sort a bay for me when I arrive?"

Yes. Reception can book for a guest, or the guest books themselves. Every booking shows who made it.

Host screens →
3

"A wedding party has filled the car park."

Open it as a Parking Hub with the event dates in your rules and instructions, so guests book a space ahead at your weekday or weekend rate.

Parking Hubs →
4

"Drivers passing through keep asking to plug in."

List the chargers as a Charging Hub. Set the days and hours you offer, or name a hub "Guests Only" to say who it is for.

Hubs →
5

"Can charging be a perk of the stay?"

Share a promo code at reception, by text or in the confirmation email, complimentary or discounted. On a complimentary code the hotel covers the electricity.

Promo codes →
6

"Nobody at the desk can watch the car park all night."

A QR code on every charger and space, in your colours. You are notified at check-in and check-out, and guests message you in the app.

Hotels & Hospitality FAQ

Does De Energy Hub work for B&Bs, guesthouses and hostels, not just hotels?

+
Yes. A single charger at a B&B and several chargers at a resort are listed the same way. Add a Charging Hub, a Parking Hub or both for each property, set your hours and rates, and print the QR codes. One account can run several sites, with one Charging Hub and one Parking Hub per Eircode.

Can reception book a bay or charger for a guest?

+
Yes. You can book for a guest or for yourself in the app. Both the guest and the host receive a booking confirmation email. The guest needs De Energy Hub app and an account to check in, and the email or phone number on the account must match the booking details.

Can a hotel offer free or discounted charging to guests?

+
Yes. Request a promo code from De Energy Hub. It is set up in advance with a number of uses, including per person and per month, an expiry date, and whether it covers parking, charging or both. Share it at reception, by text or in a confirmation email, and the guest types it into the promotional code field when they book. A complimentary code skips the payment screen and the hotel covers the electricity. A discounted code takes a percentage off and the guest pays the balance.

How do we say our chargers are for guests?

+
Name your hub or charger, for example Acme Guests Only, and write your policy in the Parking Hub rules and instructions. When a Parking Hub is linked to a Charging Hub, the rules show on the overview of both. The name and rules tell drivers who a hub is for.

Can we take parking bookings for weddings and events?

+
Yes. List a Parking Hub, set the days and hours it is available and the booking length, and state the event dates in the hub's rules and instructions. Parking is priced per 30-minute slot with a weekday rate and a weekend rate, so guests can book a space ahead.

Can other drivers use our charger and car park?

+
Yes. Every hub you list is visible in the app to any driver, including company vehicles and fleets travelling across Ireland. You set the rates, the opening hours and the booking length, and on full-price bookings you keep 100% of the rate you set.

Does this work with the chargers we already own, and what does it take to run?

+
Yes. De Energy Hub works with the EV chargers you already own. Describe each charger in the app with its name, maximum speed, connector type and brand, print the QR code for each charger or space, and go live. Set-up is typically under an hour. A member of staff sets up the hubs and answers driver queries through the app, while guests book, pay and check in themselves. You are notified when they check in or out, and every booking shows who made it. Guests pay by card and receive an invoice for each paid booking, and payouts are made daily, at the end of the day, when there is something to pay out. The steps are on the app page.

Hospitality features current as of October 2026. More answers in the app FAQ and the features FAQ, or get in touch.

Open your car park and chargers to every road user: guests, wedding parties and drivers passing through.
