In a landmark move for electric vehicle infrastructure, ZES and electrip, joint ventures of Zorlu Enerji & WrenHouse under Electrip Global Ltd, have entered into a strategic collaboration with Hubject, the globe’s leading EV charging network provider, to amplify e-roaming solutions.
ZES, Turkey’s acclaimed charge point operator, and electrip, a nascent force in the European CPO landscape, have proudly announced their partnership with Hubject, the titan of the global electric vehicle charging network. The alliance, sealed on 21st March by İ. Sinan Ak of Electrip Global Ltd and Christian Hahn of Hubject, integrates around 4000 ZES stations in Turkey and electrip’s footprint in Italy, France, Bulgaria, Greece, Croatia, Montenegro, and Poland with Hubject’s robust e-roaming network. This integration promises a frictionless charging experience for EV drivers across Europe, linking them with a wide range of e-mobility service providers.
Reflecting on the partnership, İ. Sinan Ak, CEO of Electrip Global Ltd, stated: “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 shared his enthusiasm: “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 partnership underscores a significant leap forward in connecting and enhancing the EV charging network on a global scale.
