ZES and electrip, ventures of Zorlu Enerji & WrenHouse established under Electrip Global Ltd, have teamed up with Hubject, the global leader in electric vehicle (EV) charging networks, to advance e-roaming solutions for an interconnected future.
AMSTERDAM, Netherlands, 5th April 2024 – In a move that promises to reshape the landscape of electric vehicle charging, ZES, a leading Turkish charge point operator, and electrip, an emerging player in the European CPO market, have formalised a partnership with Hubject, the largest provider of EV charging networks worldwide. This collaboration, officiated on 21st March by İ. Sinan Ak of Electrip Global Ltd and Christian Hahn of Hubject, will see the integration of about 4000 ZES stations in Turkey and electrip’s network across several European nations, such as Italy, France, Bulgaria, Greece, Croatia, Montenegro, and Poland, into Hubject’s extensive e-roaming network. This strategic alliance aims to streamline the charging process for EV drivers across Europe, offering them access to a myriad of e-mobility service providers.
İ. Sinan Ak, CEO of Electrip Global Ltd, shared his perspective on the partnership: “We launched ZES in 2018 to support electric vehicle owners in Turkey with our intra and intercity charging stations, and recently introduced “electrip” in Europe to speed up the electric vehicle revolution. As state-of-the-art brands, we are glad to sign this valuable partnership with Hubject. This collaboration will help us to make electric vehicles more accessible and usable throughout Turkey and European countries. This is an essential part of our overall plan to reduce carbon emissions and protect our planet with our contribution to the expansion of e-mobility ecosystem.”
Christian Hahn, CEO of Hubject, also commented: “We’re happy to welcome ZES and electrip into the inter-charge CPO network. This partnership will help them to strengthen their infrastructure in the countries where they operate. It means thousands of EV drivers will be able to easily find and use ZES and electrip charging stations and others that are part of Hubject’s e-roaming network, which in turn is a big step in the right direction of encouraging drivers to switch to electric.”
This innovative partnership is set to enhance the accessibility and efficiency of EV charging, fostering a more connected and sustainable future for electric mobility.
