ROME – Accelerate the development of electric mobility, combine decarbonisation, digitalisation and electrification. These are the main objectives on which Enel X Way is born, the new global business line of the Enel Group entirely dedicated to sustainable mobility with electric traction. The official launch came during the Roman Formula E Grand Prix which was attended by over 20,000 people with 40 million viewers from around 180 countries.
The initiative was presented by Elisabetta Ripa, CEO of Enel X Way who, together with her team, talked about programs and strategies. “The future leads us towards greater electrification of transport – said the manager – which guarantees an effective and sustainable mobility solution that is increasingly competitive and comfortable.” The car will naturally do its part since within the next ten years it will be precisely electric traction. “There are about 20 million electric cars in circulation all over the world. A small number if compared to the whole car fleet – added Ripa – but with a very important acceleration, especially in recent years, in the countries of Northern Europe and in particular in China. We are a global entity and we can make all possible innovation available to our country and enable the energy transition “.
With the experience gained in electric mobility, Enel X Way is already active in 17 countries in Europe, America and Asia, managing 320,000 public and private charging points both directly and with interoperability agreements. Priority will be the development in the European markets including, above all, Italy, Spain and Romania. In the United States, the company is among the top operators in the domestic top-up market, while in Latin America it is the leader in Chile in public transport services and in Brazil in private car parks.
