DKV acquires SET Ventures portfolio company GreenFlux
RATINGEN, GERMANY – June 10th, 2021 – European mobility service provider DKV acquires GreenFlux, the leading European software platform provider for electric vehicle (EV) charging. This represents a further step in DKV’s efforts to support fleet drivers and their organisations as they switch to lower-carbon transport and provides strong synergies with DKV’s existing mobility support applications. This acquisition marks DKV’s further expansion into the fast-growing e-mobility charging market and will provide critical competencies, helping DKV to further scale their overall EV charging offer across Europe.
“I am very proud that we have expanded our EV capabilities to this extent and thus provide more services to our customers’ e-fleets throughout Europe”, says Marco van Kalleveen, CEO at DKV Mobility. “This dynamic growth shows that electromobility is developing at a rapid pace throughout Europe. In this context, we want to drive the transition towards a more sustainable future of mobility”.
