Technology firm Siemens and the electric vehicle (EV) charging platform provider Monta have partnered on expansion of charging infrastructure across Europe.
Siemens will use Monta’s Charge Point Management System (CPMS) to manage its own fleet and charging points, accessible to over 11,000 Siemens employees in the UK.
The partnership will also serve customers with a full solution for EV charging at work, in public and at home. It also enables Siemens to become a one-stop-shop solutions provider of e-mobility services to corporate fleet operators. By using Monta’s CPMS as an operating system, Siemens can accelerate its ambition to make e-mobility part of everyday life by building up a pan-European infrastructure for corporate fleet and facility managers, offering charging services for their company car drivers, pool car drivers and employees.
The CPMS supports charge point operation, including load balancing, charger availability, charger accessibility, and pricing.
The operating system includes fleet management, smart access rights, and automatic home reimbursement. It also offers multiple payment options including Apple Pay and Google Pay for drivers.
Markus Mildner, CEO eMobility at Siemens Smart Infrastructure, said: “We’re excited to be working together with Monta, integrating their innovative, feature-filled software into our offerings. This supports our ambitions to further expand EV charging infrastructure.”
Monta’s CEO, Casper Rasmussen, said: “We’re proud to be working together with a well-renowned company like Siemens who has been making a long-lasting positive impact on our society for decades. Together, we can accelerate the buildout of a pan-European charging network where EV drivers and charging point owners alike experience a smooth EV charging experience.”
