ABB has been electrifying its fleet since 2018 and is now one of the most experienced corporate users of electric vehicles in Slovakia. A new SEVA case study shows how this approach works in practice—with the support of Kia Sales Slovakia, a Gold Partner of the Biznis Hub for Electric Vehicles in Companies.
The case study provides a detailed look at how ABB built its fleet step by step, from the first vehicles to its current share of electric vehicles, why it chose Kia models specifically, and how it leveraged its own infrastructure to optimize costs. The text captures the real-life daily operations of employees, the most common concerns prior to the transition to BEVs, and how company culture is changing in practice when company electric vehicles are used by employees with high daily mileage. Kia Sales Slovakia plays an important role here not only as a vehicle supplier but also as a partner in setting up the entire electrification process.
Interested parties will learn about the real-world impacts of the transition to BEVs on costs, maintenance, employee comfort, and the fulfillment of ESG goals; how ABB addressed internal rules for vehicle use; how its own DC/AC charging infrastructure works; and why the company recommends starting with a smaller pilot fleet. The case study answers practical questions that nearly every company entering the world of electric mobility faces: what range is needed, how to charge off-site, what happens in the winter, what the actual savings are, and what internal processes you need to set up.
ABB, as a holder of the SEVA ELF Champion certification, presents a model worth exploring even before making your first decision to purchase a BEV.
