Smart EV charging solutions provider NewMotions has been selected by fleet management company LeasePlan as its preferred charging supplier for Europe.
This latest partnership aims to support the Shell owned company in its global ambition to operate more than half a million charge points for businesses, fleets, at retail sites and customer’s homes by 2025.
Under the deal, NewMotion will provide LeasePlan customers with EV charging solutions at home, the workplace, and on the go. Earlier this year, NewMotion reached its 200,000 charge point milestone in 35 European countries, doubling the number of charge points across its public charging network in just two years.
Now, with NewMotion as a partner, LeasePlan customers will have access to one of the largest charging networks in Europe. The partnership said this will enable a seamless and care-free charging experience on-the-go.
The collaboration will include charging points, including ultra-rapid chargers, at hundreds of Shell service stations and locations with destination charging all over Europe.
Melanie Lane, CEO at NewMotion, said: “We’re really excited to support LeasePlan, one of Europe’s largest players in leasing, in their efforts to scale up e-mobility.
“Over the past ten years, we have seen more and more people switching to EVs, along with an increased interest from companies to facilitate this. To make the transition seamless for both businesses and their employees, companies need a smart charging ecosystem that helps them to monitor and control their charging. We’re proud to support LeasePlan in achieving its net zero target for its fleets by 2030.”
LeasePlan added customers will also benefit from having access to online tools that provide real-time information on availability, as well as the charging speeds of public charge points.
