On its way to becoming CO2e neutral by 2027, CANCOM is focusing on e-mobility. Therefore, the hybrid IT service provider is expanding its fleet of electric vehicles together with the necessary charging infrastructure at all locations across the Group with the suitable conditions. The aim is to electrify around 90 percent of the entire vehicle fleet within the next five years. This corresponds to approximately 1,350 vehicles.
The CANCOM owned site Jettingen-Scheppach site is leading the way in the expansion of the infrastructure for e-mobility. In recent months, CANCOM has expanded the charging stations for electric vehicles there to 18 charging points and added ten fully electric pool vehicles to the fleet. At the other branches, too, all new pool vehicles are to be ordered as e-models in the future and a corresponding cross-location infrastructure is to be set up for this purpose – provided that the landlords give the opportunity to do so and the technical requirements are met on site. In addition, the switch to fully electric vehicles will also be pushed for company cars from January 2023.
The core of the cross-location infrastructure will be a uniform hardware and software system that offers numerous advantages, such as uncomplicated and flexible booking of charging stations and charging of vehicles.
"In line with our goal of becoming CO2e neutral by 2027, and with sustainable corporate development and management, we are taking care to make our business processes more sustainable and also to reduce our own consumption of resources as much as possible," says Thomas Stark, CFO and ESG officer at CANCOM. "Among other things, we already procure green energy for the most part at our sites. The expansion of e-mobility is another important milestone in reducing our emissions."

* CO2e includes not only carbon dioxide but also CO2 equivalents that have a greenhouse gas effect, such as methane emissions.
