Energa launches the first electric car sharing in Olivia

Olivia Business Centre is a partner of an innovative solution – car sharing. We are supporting our Resident, the Energa Group, which has introduced an innovative electric car rental service at OBC today. This is the first such service in Poland. At the moment, carsharing of electric vehicles is available only to employees of companies located in Olivia Business Centre. The price for renting an electric car depends on the model and ranges from 27 to 35 PLN per hour – with no limit on the number of kilometers traveled. Energa has announced that it will open four more such carsharing hubs within two years.

One of the objectives of the Energa Group is to develop and popularise electromobility. In recent years, the company has launched a charging network in the Tri-City, currently comprising seven stations (including those located in Olivia Business Centre) and was the first in Poland to conduct a comprehensive study of Polish electric car users. The launch of carsharing is the next step that will enable Tri-City drivers to test electric cars. This will translate into an increase in their popularity, and will allow the company to collect new data to offer products and services tailored to the real needs of electromobility users in the future.

Energa’s short-term electric car rental (carsharing) is a service addressed to business and institutional customers. The rental is available to employees of companies that sign an agreement with Enspirion (the operator of this service), which belongs to the Energa Group. Settlements will be made between the service operator and the service’s clients. On the other hand, each customer will decide on the formula in which they will make the car available to their employees. Energa’s carsharing is currently available to resident companies in the Olivia Business Centre office complex, which houses about 200 companies employing over 5,000 people. By the end of this year, two more HUBs will be built, and by the end of 2018 there will be a total of five.

Fig. Energa materials

We are starting in Olivia Business Centre, where our headquarters are located, but we want our carsharing to be able to be used by every interested company in the Tri-City soon. Our service works similarly to a work mobile phone. Each company can make it available to its employees and set its own rules for using it – says Tomasz Bogucki from Enspirion, which deals with electromobility and innovation in the Energa Group.

Simplicity and ecology

The car rental interface is intuitive to use. Users only need three clicks to select the car model and specify the preferred rental time. Cars can be rented by the hour, on weekdays from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. There is also an option to rent a car for the rest of the day and for the whole weekend. The price will depend on the model and the time of day and week.

For an hour of driving the Volkswagen e-UP between 8 and 16 we will pay 27 PLN. Renting it for the rest of the day (16 hours) will cost 96 PLN, and renting a car for the weekend will cost 192 PLN. The electric Renault Zoe will cost PLN 30 per hour, PLN 108 for 16 hours of afternoon and night and PLN 208 for the weekend, respectively. On the other hand, C Premium cars, i.e. VW e-Golf and Nissan Leaf, cost PLN 35 / 128 / 256 respectively.

Renters will not be charged any additional costs. Charging cars at terminals owned by Energa is free of charge. The company currently has seven charging terminals in the Tri-City, their locations can be found at: emobility.pl
