Not quite. To get a green tick in the CO2 advantage box, you have to consistently charge the fleet with green energy. In everyday company car use, for example, this is done with the Charge&Fuel card and app at IONITY charging stations. Here, you will always charge your vehicle with 100% green electricity with no exceptions. And even with a sensible and sustainable charging infrastructure at the company location, big steps can be taken in the right direction. That just leaves charging at home. Here too, fair regulations between company car users and companies can achieve major reductions in emissions.

In principle, we can cover almost all areas of application in the fleet electrically with our model portfolio – from management vehicles, to traditional field service with high annual mileages, to pool vehicles that are predominantly driven in city centres. But that’s just the hardware: we also advise companies on adapting their car policy, help to analyse driving profiles and, of course, take care of important issues such as charging infrastructure at the company site or wallboxes for users at home. In combination with the nationwide dealer and service network and in cooperation with our local partners and experts, this holistic approach is probably unique on the market.

In Germany we pool together these services under the claim “Fleet.Electrified“; internationally we refer to “Electrification-as-a-Service“. By the way, we don’t just focus on the classic company car: At the start I talked about the emissions caused by commuting employees. In Germany, we will soon be launching an exciting pilot project for gross salary conversion. In other words, even employees who are not authorised to use company cars will be able to use it to obtain electric vehicles with zero local emissions at attractive conditions. This in turn would also have a positive impact on the company’s Scope 3 emissions.
