AMPECO’s Sustainability Strategy
AMPECO is an innovation-driven enterprise dedicated to enabling the EV charging infrastructure of the future. Our business model inherently benefits the environment by facilitating electric mobility, while our early adoption of a sustainability mindset has significantly fostered our growth.
Our sustainability approach
Sustainability at AMPECO is not a separate function or a reporting obligation. It is the architecture of how we make decisions. As the digital foundation for large-scale EV charging networks, the connection between our business model and climate outcomes is direct and measurable. Our strategy is organized around three pillars:
Sustainable e-mobility
Our primary lever. The climate outcomes that flow from platform scale are by far our most significant contribution to a net-zero future. With 230,000 charging ports managed by the close of 2025, the clean energy delivered through those networks enabled the avoidance of 434,180 tonnes of CO₂e – savings we categorise as Scope 4 (avoided emissions).
People and community
Building transformative infrastructure requires exceptional, purpose-driven people, embedded in communities whose wellbeing we have a responsibility to consider. AMPECO closed 2025 with nearly 200 employees, having grown through more than 60 new hires and 27 newly created roles.
Trust and equity
A platform managing critical energy infrastructure must operate with unimpeachable integrity – in its security posture, its data governance, its supplier relationships, and its commercial conduct. In 2025 this included meetings with US Congress representatives, Members of the European Parliament, and the European Commission on AFIR implementation.
Across all three pillars, resilience serves as the connective thread. Resilience is not a fourth pillar – it is the condition that allows the other three to hold under pressure.
Climate Transition Plan: goals and progress
AMPECO published its first Climate Transition Plan (CTP) in 2024 and updates it annually. The CTP outlines the levers through which AMPECO intends to reach its SBTi-verified net-zero target by 2030, using 2022 as the baseline year. The plan addresses four primary areas of action:
Cloud and infrastructure optimization
Applying the AWS Well-Architected Sustainability Pillar principles3 to reduce the carbon cost of software delivery, tracked through our Cloud Service Intensity metric. In FY2025, Cloud Service Intensity improved by 40%.
Business travel reduction
Managed through carbon-aware booking guidance, a 15% intensity reduction target per km by 2026 vs. 2023, and favoring virtual engagement where equivalent. AMPECO teams traveled to 83 cities across 62 countries in 2025.
Employee mobility
Supporting low-carbon commuting through our company EV fleet, shared mobility allowances, and office location choices.
Supplier and value chain engagement
Governed by AMPECO’s Supplier Due Diligence Policy. Material suppliers are proactively assessed against responsible procurement standards, and we are progressively improving Scope 3 data quality for purchased goods and services.

Decoupling platform growth from emissions
One of the clearest tests of a scaling technology company’s sustainability credibility is whether its environmental footprint grows proportionally with its business, or whether it has found ways to deliver more impact with proportionally less. At AMPECO, decoupling is not a theoretical ambition. It is a measurable outcome we track consistently and report with transparency.
In 2025, the platform grew substantially. Active charge points increased by approximately 35%, reaching about 230,000 by year end; charging sessions surpassed 28.4 million; energy delivered exceeded 750 GWh for the first time; and the energy flowing through those networks enabled the avoidance of 434,180 tonnes of CO₂e, a 141% increase year-on-year. Yet our operational carbon intensity tells a different story – every intensity metric we track improved meaningfully.
AMPECO’s model sits at a different point in the EV charging value chain than infrastructure operators: we own no stations, deploy no hardware, and consume none of the energy delivered through the networks we enable. As the platform scales, the marginal environmental cost of that growth approaches zero, because shared infrastructure, multi-tenant architecture, and cloud efficiency gains mean each additional unit of platform capacity is delivered at a fraction of the footprint required by the first. The 781x leverage ratio is the clearest single expression of what that model produces.
Architectural efficiency
AMPECO’s multi-tenant platform design means each new operator onboarded shares infrastructure rather than requiring dedicated resources, compounding the efficiency gain as the network grows.
Operational discipline
Active management of cloud resource utilization in line with AWS Well-Architected sustainability guidance ensures compute capacity tracks workload demand. Here, optimizing costs means cutting emissions.
Measurement rigour
By tracking intensity metrics rather than relying solely on absolute figures, we hold ourselves accountable to a standard that does not allow growth to mask inefficiency.
We acknowledge that a change in carbon accounting vendor during 2025 means absolute year-on-year comparisons carry a degree of methodological divergence. Intensity-based metrics, calculated consistently under both methodologies, are the more reliable basis for assessing progress – and they point in the right direction.
Materiality and readiness for change
AMPECO’s sustainability reporting is anchored in a double materiality lens, assessing both the impact our business activities have on the environment and society, and the ways in which ESG factors could affect our financial performance and long-term resilience. The topics identified as highest priority in our 2024 assessment – including climate change mitigation, consumer privacy, and secure employment – continue to shape our strategy, targets, and disclosure approach. Three readiness dimensions frame how we act on these findings:
Regulatory readiness
While AMPECO is not yet subject to mandatory CSRD reporting, alignment with ESRS disclosure expectations – double materiality, Scope 3 transparency, and digital responsibility – positions us ahead of the curve. Our active engagement in EU and US regulatory processes ensures our compliance posture evolves in step with the policy environment, not behind it.
Technology readiness
Our AI-native development model showcased our capacity to respond to technology change at the speed the market requires, without compromising the stability that mission-critical infrastructure demands.
Market readiness
Certifications, verified targets, and transparent reporting are transitioning from trust signals to qualification criteria. New enterprise customers in 2025 – Swisscharge (DACH), AGL Energy (Australia), E.ON Czech Republic, Eleport and Ignitis ON (CEE and Baltics), and Flexis (France) – reflect growing market confidence in AMPECO’s reliability and governance.
AI-native company approach
AMPECO is an AI-native company – not in the sense that AI is our product, but in the sense that AI is embedded in how we build, operate, and improve it. By mid-2025, we had rebuilt our entire development workflow around AI agents. The result is the CoOperator Dev Agent, a workflow management system in which AI handles code execution while engineers direct architecture, validate quality, and exercise the human judgment that mission-critical infrastructure demands.
We are deliberate about this. Accelerated capability without governance is a risk, not an advantage. Our approach to AI use is shaped by four principles:
- Efficiency by design. We evaluate AI tools not only for output quality but for their computational and energy cost – selecting appropriately sized models, avoiding redundant processing, and monitoring usage patterns.
- Security and privacy by default. No customer data, personally identifiable information, or commercially sensitive content enters external AI systems without explicit policy authorisation, governed by our ISO 27001-certified ISMS.
- Human accountability. AI-generated outputs are reviewed by qualified humans before use. We treat AI as a capability multiplier operating under human oversight, not a decision-maker.
- Quality assurance. Testing, review, and deployment standards apply regardless of whether code was AI-assisted or human-authored. AI tooling has not reduced our quality bar – it has changed how we reach it.
In that spirit, AMPECO became an active member of the Coalition for Sustainable AI4 – a global initiative coordinated by France, the UN Environment Programme, and the International Telecommunication Union. As a signatory, AMPECO commits to measuring, reporting, and continuously reducing the environmental footprint of any AI technologies we develop or deploy.
