Sustainable e-Mobility

Our approach to sustainable e-mobility is rooted in the inherent environmental benefits of our core business model: harnessing technological innovation to decarbonize transportation.

We create software that prioritizes renewable energy integration, optimize our digital infrastructure to minimize the indirect footprint of our SaaS operations, and integrate environmental stewardship into our internal operations and broader value chain – with a clear roadmap toward net-zero emissions.

EV charging in an urban setting

Platform-enabled emissions reductions: Scope 4

The global EV charging landscape is undergoing a structural transformation. Publicly accessible charging points surpassed 5 million worldwide by the end of 2024, and the IEA projects that public charging capacity would need to grow almost ninefold by 2030 to support projected EV sales.56 For a software platform operating at the intersection of clean mobility and energy infrastructure, this trajectory is the core of AMPECO’s climate thesis: every charge point that comes online represents a potential avoided emission, and the software layer determines how much of that potential is actually realized.

CO₂e avoided for others · Scope 4

The CO₂e not released because electric kilometers displace internal combustion kilometers – a supplementary disclosure category outside the GHG Protocol’s Scope 1-3 framework.

Our avoided emissions methodology is developed in-house and aligned with Verra’s VM0038 methodology for EV charging systems.7 We apply it conservatively: a global average grid emissions intensity factor across all markets, no claims where the required data is unavailable, and no optimiztic displacement assumptions. Our aim is to report figures that are defensible, auditable, and meaningful – approximately 15 kg CO₂e avoided per charging session in 2025. As a near-term goal, AMPECO intends to pursue third-party limited assurance on our Scope 4 calculation.

The positive impact of AMPECO-backed chargers is growing. While charge points grew by 35% year-on-year, the volume of charging sessions more than doubled and energy delivered surged by 122%. This divergence reflects growing utilization: existing charge points are being used more intensively, more reliably, and more efficiently. AMPECO-backed operators are not just deploying more infrastructure – they are extracting more value from every charge point in their network. This is the leverage of software at work: smart charging, dynamic load management, roaming interoperability, and white-label customer experience turn a hardware asset into a consistently performing revenue source.

What the Scope 4 figures reflect. The 141% increase in avoided emissions is not simply a function of more charge points. It reflects a compounding effect: more sessions per charge point, more energy per session, and continued growth in EV adoption among the CPOs AMPECO serves. The avoided emissions figure is not a marketing number – it is the output of a disciplined calculation, grounded in real session data, applied conservatively, and reported with full transparency about its boundary conditions. Many AMPECO clients also leverage their charging sessions on carbon markets to obtain renewable energy certificates, increasing the additionality of EV charging.

Carbon footprint and climate progress (Scopes 1-3)

AMPECO’s operational carbon footprint is measured and reported across Scopes 1, 2, and 3, in line with the GHG Protocol and our ISO 14001-certified Environmental Management System. From FY2025 onwards, emissions accounting is managed by Atlas Metrics (part of Novata)8, our new carbon accounting vendor. Scope 1 emissions remain minimal, arising solely from fugitive refrigerant sources in office cooling. Scope 2 emissions reflect purchased electricity at our Sofia office, including electricity used to charge our company EV fleet, reported at 48.09 tCO₂e.

Scope 3 represents the largest share of our footprint, as is typical for a software-first business. The dominant categories are purchased goods and services (Category 1, at 274.34 tCO₂e, including cloud infrastructure, event sponsorships, and consulting) and business travel (Category 6, at 146.07 tCO₂e). Where supplier-specific carbon data is not available, a conservative general emissions factor is applied – and this limitation is disclosed explicitly rather than omitted.

Employee mobility: leading the transition we build. In 2025, AMPECO employees had at their disposal a fleet of 15 electric vehicles with a corporate recharging subscription through our partners Eldrive and EVPoint. By powering the fleet with 60,900 kWh of electricity, AMPECO avoided 47 tonnes of CO₂e compared to equivalent fossil-fuel travel – of which 30.4 tonnes are directly attributable to employee commuting and reported under Scope 3 Category 7, with the remainder conservatively excluded from our operational reporting boundary.

Net-zero journey

AMPECO’s net-zero target – a reduction of Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions to net zero by 2030 using 2022 as the baseline year – was validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) in 2024. It represents one of the most rigorous voluntary climate commitments available to a company of AMPECO’s scale. Progress is governed through three interlocking mechanisms:

Improving supplier-level data and embedding climate expectations into procurement decisions across our supply chain.

Business travel. 2025 was a year of intensive market engagement, with AMPECO teams present across 83 cities in 62 countries for customer meetings, regulatory participation, and industry events. Managing the associated emissions remains an active priority under our Climate Transition Plan, which supports employees in selecting lower-carbon options where these do not compromise business outcomes.

Air quality and electric mobility. Through our shared company EV fleet and mobility partnerships, employees avoided 32 tCO₂e through electric commuting in 2025, a 39% increase on the prior year. Beyond carbon, every fossil-fuel journey displaced is a direct reduction in the local pollutant load – carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides, particulate matter – that affects the health of the communities our employees live and work in.

Sustainable procurement. AMPECO maintained 100% sustainable spend across employee merchandise, gifts, and office supplies in 2025. We also reused 45 work laptops, a fourfold increase compared to the 10 reused in 2024, achieving a 100% laptop reuse rate and extending the useful life of hardware that would otherwise contribute to electronic waste.

Environmental Management System

We are committed to systematically managing our environmental responsibilities. In 2025, we performed a successful surveillance audit for our active Environmental Management System (EMS), meeting the requirements of the ISO 14001:2015 international standard. This framework allows us to identify, manage, monitor, and control our environmental impact in a holistic and transparent manner.

The scope of our EMS covers all AMPECO business activities – software development, customer support, and administrative operations – and is aligned with our broader Information Security Management System. To review our ISO 14001 certificate, visit ampeco.com/iso-14001.

Product spotlight: charging as flexibility

AMPECO occupies a distinctive position in the energy transition: not as an energy producer or infrastructure owner, but as the software layer that determines how existing infrastructure performs. Unmanaged charging imposes significant strain on grid infrastructure during peak periods. Managed charging transforms electric vehicles from passive loads into active grid assets – capable of absorbing excess renewable generation, deferring demand during peaks, and participating in flexibility markets. In 2025, energy flexibility moved from theory to operational reality across AMPECO’s customer base.

Charging circuits function as resources that respond to signals from grid operators, energy markets, or aggregators – with 15-minute time-series forecasting designed for direct integration with flexibility markets via AMPECO’s API and OpenADR protocols.

01

SWITCH (E.ON Sweden)

Brings grid-side demand response directly into AMPECO’s flexibility ecosystem. Using OpenADR 3.0, SWITCH sends power limitation events that AMPECO acknowledges and executes as scheduled periods – positioning AMPECO as a real-time participant in grid balancing.

02

DREEV

Connects AMPECO with the leading flexibility operator for electrical depots in France and Europe. DREEV applies charging profiles optimized against electricity market prices, while AMPECO retains full platform and OCPP-level control.

Real-time schedule recalculation. For smart charging modes with a target energy amount, the platform monitors actual meter values against the scheduled profile on each 15-minute interval. If delivered current deviates – due to grid instability, solar fluctuation, or hardware behavior – the system automatically recalculates and pushes updated charging profiles so the vehicle still meets its target by departure time.
