What’s Happening
Fisker Inc., known for its sustainable and compelling electric vehicles, reinforces its commitment to sustainability via a renewable-energy charging partnership with Allego B.V. (“Allego”). The alliance allows European drivers of Fisker Ocean electric vehicles to charge their cars using 100% renewable energy sources, dramatically cutting down the CO2 footprint over the vehicle’s lifespan.
Why It Matters
With the growing global focus on environmental sustainability, the sources of electricity used for charging electric vehicles have become a significant concern for consumers. By investing in “green charging” operators who power their public charging networks with renewable energy sources, such as Solar, Wind, Hydro, Geothermal, Ocean movement, Hydrogen, and Biomass, Fisker not only leads the electric vehicle industry in Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) practices but also sets the bar for all industries to commit to a cleaner future.
Key Points
Fisker’s partnership with Allego, a leading EV charging network in Europe, provides Fisker Ocean drivers with easy access to renewable-energy charging. Allego’s charging stations supply 100% renewable energy, certified by Guarantee of Origin Certificates (GOs), thus aligning with Fisker’s dedication to transparency and sustainability.
Fisker Ocean drivers can locate Allego stations and access one year of free charging at over 27,000 eligible charging ports, using the Fisker Ocean’s navigation system and the FISKER FLEXSM Charge app.
The company’s commitment to sustainability doesn’t stop at green charging. Fisker’s mission extends to all phases of a vehicle’s life cycle, including upstream sourcing of materials, manufacturing, logistics, use phase, and end of use/recycling. The Ocean Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) report, to be published later this spring, will provide more insight into Fisker’s sustainability efforts.
Bottom Line
Fisker is redefining the automotive industry by aligning individual mobility with nature. The partnership with Allego highlights Fisker’s ambitious commitment to sustainability and its pledge to provide customers with the most sustainable choices in the EV market. The Fisker Ocean, their groundbreaking all-electric SUV, promises not only a significant reduction in CO2 emissions but also an impressive WLTP range of up to 707 km/440 UK miles, marking a significant stride in electric vehicle technology.
