About Skanksa

The Brief

Skanska wanted to enable employees to drive electric both at home, at work, and on the road. Given the extensive administrative tasks associated with managing a large fleet and the myriad of charging solutions available—including considerations for hardware, payment systems, and support—the business sought a comprehensive and streamlined charging solution.

The Solution

Mer helped Skanska implement a holistic charging solution; home charging, workplace charging, and access to Mer’s public charging network. Mer assumes full responsibility for the charging infrastructure, including customer service and charger maintenance, ensuring a consistently functional system.

Mer also provides automated reports for all types of charging, facilitating accurate management of costs and monitoring of environmental impact.

Skanska has streamlined its operations with Mer’s support. By simplifying operations, Skanska is focusing on what matters most and boosting its sustainability efforts. This new infrastructure has improved employee experience, increased EV uptake, and provided the convenience of home charging.

“Given the size of our vehicle fleet and the administrative work involved, it was important to find a simple and flexible overall solution for charging. With Mer as our partner, we got just that. Now we have one and the same supplier who solves everything, charging at home, at work, and along the road, and who takes overall responsibility for the charging solution.” – Mikael Telerud, Fleet Manager, Skanska

Key features include; scalable charging infrastructure, flexible payment options, 24/7 operation and customer support, and dynamic load balancing.
