Abu Dhabi, UAE – [09.12.24] – GIGATONS, a global leader in sustainable mobility, announced the plan to partner with ABB E-mobility, a world leader in high-power electronics and EV charging technology. This collaboration will enable GIGATONS’ worldwide rollout of EV charging solutions for its partners, providing groundbreaking and innovative designs for the growing EV ecosystem.

The partnership will leverage GIGATONS’ extensive expertise, including insights gained from managing GRIDSERVE’s successful EV charging infrastructure deployment in the UK, alongside ABB E-mobility’s decade of experience deploying and servicing thousands of fast chargers globally. Together, the two companies will create solutions for a wide spectrum of electric charging use cases, including passenger vehicles, taxis, buses, heavy goods vehicles (HGVs), marine, and aviation solutions. This work will also support GIGATONS’ contribution under its partnership with SAVI (Smart Autonomous Vehicle Industry), a cluster formed by Abu Dhabi Investment Officer (ADIO) in Masdar City, Abu Dhabi, to focus on smart e-mobility solutions across land, sea, and air.

Toddington Harper, co-CEO of GIGATONS, and CEO of GIGASERVE & GRIDSERVE GLOBAL, highlighted the significance of this collaboration:

“I have been on an incredible journey with ABB since we opened GRIDSERVE’s first Electric Forecourt in Braintree in 2020. Since then we grew the business to charging almost 250,000 electric cars, vans and trucks, each month, supplying over 6 million kWh’s of energy. Most of these charging sessions have utilised ABB chargers, and I am delighted to now moving forwards with a GIGATONS partnership with ABB, to utilise the latest technologies now available so we can deliver world class EV charging solutions to Partner Networks across the world, serving multiple vehicle types and modes of transportation”

ABB E-mobility’s Chief Commercial Officer, Florian Nägele expressed enthusiasm about the collaboration: “We are excited to join forces with GIGATONS in this strategic partnership, combining our expertise in EV charging technology with their innovative approach to sustainable mobility. Together, we will deliver world-class charging infrastructure to support the growing demands of a diverse e-mobility ecosystem. This collaboration is a testament to our shared vision of driving the global transition to smarter, cleaner transportation.”

This partnership will offer GIGATONS’ Partner Networks a fast and reliable charging service, local, regional, and global teams of experts, and a charging infrastructure which operates with the highest utilization and lowest downtime.
