ABB E-mobility Adds UK DC Fast Charging Partner

ABB E-mobility has named SaveMoneyCutCarbon a certified UK channel partner for DC fast charging, giving fleet and site operators design, grid connection, installation, software, financing, and maintenance through a single contract.

ABB E-mobility has named SaveMoneyCutCarbon (SMCC) a certified channel partner for DC fast charging in the UK, pairing more than 15 years of ABB DC charging experience with SMCC’s in-house project delivery and managed services. UK fleet and site operators can now source the charging portfolio through a single contract covering design, grid connection, installation, commissioning, software, and long-term maintenance. ABB E-mobility says the arrangement responds to demand for high-power charging that serves both fleet electrification and high-traffic public sites.

Highlights

  • SMCC is certified to commission, service, and maintain ABB E-mobility chargers after completing a structured onboarding and certification program
  • Delivery scope covers in-house design, grid connection management, installation, commissioning, software and back-office management, maintenance, and ongoing operational support
  • Flexible financing options spread deployment cost across the operational life of the assets
  • Target sectors include hospitality, healthcare, education, retail, logistics, commercial fleets, and the public sector

Single-Source Delivery for UK Operators

The partnership consolidates what is typically a multi-vendor process — hardware supply, electrical contracting, grid application, software, and service — into one commercial relationship. SMCC handles each stage internally rather than subcontracting, and layers financing on top so that operators can align capital outlay with the asset’s working life rather than paying up front.

That structure is aimed at organizations where charging is an enabling investment rather than a core business. ABB E-mobility identifies hospitality, healthcare, education, retail, logistics, commercial fleets, and the public sector as the sectors the model is intended to serve.

“We now deliver every stage of a charging infrastructure project in-house – from design and grid connections through to installation, software management and maintenance,” said Simon Blaaser, Head of Product & Partnerships at SaveMoneyCutCarbon. “Combined with flexible funding options, we’re helping organizations accelerate their transition to electric mobility with greater confidence and less complexity.”

Which Chargers Are Included?

SMCC customers gain access to the full DC fast charging portfolio, including the A400 All-in-One charger. The A400 has been recognized with an iF Gold Award and a Red Dot Award for its design.

Why Does ABB Use Certified Channel Partners?

ABB E-mobility works with a selected group of channel partners across Europe rather than distributing openly. Each partner completes structured onboarding and certification before being approved to commission, service, and maintain the company’s chargers — a gate the company frames as a consistency mechanism across markets, ensuring installation and support quality does not vary by territory.

“Bringing our DC fast charging portfolio to the UK through SaveMoneyCutCarbon gives operators a fully managed solution, from site design through to long-term operation and maintenance, backed by chargers engineered for reliability and uptime,” said Navin Smart, Channel Account Manager at ABB E-mobility UK Limited. “That removes the barriers that often slow EV infrastructure projects.”

ABB E-mobility reports approximately 1,400 employees worldwide, more than 68,000 high-power chargers sold, and over 10,000 sites electrified globally.
