EVBox, together with other leading Dutch companies, has committed, with the support of the Science Based Targets Initiative (SBTi), to eliminate greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. The companies will set short- and long-term targets for emission reduction in order to achieve climate neutrality across their entire value chain and to halve emissions by 2030, it is reported. The charging solutions specialist will set science-based targets to align with SBTi’s Corporate Net Zero Standard. In this way, they aim to achieve the Paris Agreement goal and follow the scientific findings necessary to reduce the damages of climate change.

The ten participating companies are determined to set short- and long-term targets to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and achieve climate neutrality across their entire value chain, which will be independently verified by SBTi's technical experts, it continues. This requires a rapid reduction in emissions, halving them by 2030. By 2050, these companies aim to cause almost no emissions and neutralize any remaining emissions. The SBTi Net-Zero Standard is currently the most ambitious climate regime for companies and covers a company's emissions across the entire value chain. Most companies will need comprehensive decarbonization of at least 90% to achieve climate neutrality by 2050.

"The latest IPCC report is the most urgent warning yet that only immediate, large-scale action can prevent a total climate collapse. It is encouraging that these companies today commit to credible, measurable, and science-based targets to mitigate climate change as much as possible. Their call for the participation of all companies that have not yet set credible, science-based targets, and their call to governments to make ambitious corporate climate protection measures the norm, I strongly support," urged Paul Polman, Vice Chair, United Nations Global Compact.

Remco Samuels, CEO of EVBox, explained that the commitment to a carbon and emissions-low future goes beyond the products. They want to take a leading role and must make sustainability an important part of their business strategy.

Ready for Integration into Households via EEBUS

Additionally, the provider announced that its solutions are now ready for integration with Energy Management Systems (EMS) via EEBUS, the universal language for smart home management. With EEBUS, EVBox Livo and Livigo, the company's latest AC charging stations, can be seamlessly integrated with other smart electrical devices in households and buildings, enabling more efficient energy utilization. EEBUS aims to facilitate better communication between various devices at the same location and aligns power consumption with available renewable energies. By managing charging processes with an EMS, owners of charging stations can improve and extend energy consumption by connecting electromobility with renewable energy sources. Since 2019, the provider has been a member of EEBUS, a transparent and publicly accessible standard that enables devices to communicate through cross-industry energy-related use cases.
