Fisker Inc., driven by a mission to
create the world's most emotional and sustainable electric
vehicles, reaffirms its commitment to sustainability through its
renewable-energy charging partnership with Allego B.V. Fisker Ocean
drivers can charge their EVs with 100 percent renewable energy in
Europe through Fisker's partnership with Allego. Recognizing that
use of renewable energy significantly reduces CO2 footprint over a
vehicle's lifetime, Fisker prioritizes "green charging" operators
that power their public charging networks with renewable energy.

preferred), Geothermal, Ocean movement, Hydrogen and Biomass (from

Fisker Ocean drivers can charge their EVs with 100 percent
renewable energy in Europe through Fisker's partnership with
Allego. Recognizing that use of renewable energy significantly
reduces CO2 footprint over a vehicle's lifetime, Fisker prioritizes
"green charging" operators that power their public charging
networks with renewable energy. Preferred energy sources are:
Solar, Wind, Hydro (small hydro preferred), Geothermal, Ocean
movement, Hydrogen and Biomass (from renewable feedstock). By using
green charging, Fisker estimates a 40% or more reduction in CO2
footprint during an EV's use phase1.
"Charging matters: it's a significant part of an EV's carbon
footprint over its life cycle. Customers are placing greater
importance on the sources of electricity they use to charge their
EVs, and Fisker will continue to lead the industry in ESG practices
and give customers the most sustainable choices," Chairman and CEO
Henrik Fisker said. “We challenge brands in all industries to do
the same to help provide a clean future for all."
Fisker partners with Allego, a leading pan-European EV charging
network, to provide Fisker Ocean drivers in Europe easy access to
renewable-energy charging at all Allego charge points. Every kWh
supplied by Allego's charging stations is 100 percent renewable,
certified by Guarantee of Origin Certificates (GOs). Through its
energy platform, Allego powers its chargers with renewables
generated from wind or PV (photovoltaic) farms with long term power
purchase agreements.
Using the Fisker Ocean's navigation system and the FISKER FLEXSM
Charge app, drivers can seamlessly locate Allego stations and
access one year of free charging2 at over 27,000 eligible charging
ports.
Fisker's focus on green charging in an EV's use phase is just
one aspect of Fisker's overall commitment to sustainability across
all phases of a vehicle's life cycle: upstream sourcing of
materials, manufacturing, inbound/outbound logistics, use phase,
and end of use/recycling. Aligning with Fisker's commitment to
transparency, the company will publish the Ocean Life Cycle
Assessment (LCA) later this spring. To learn more about Fisker’s
commitment to ESG, find our ESG Impact report at

1 Fisker calculates CO2 footprint of our vehicles over five
distinct phases: 1–Upstream sourcing of materials; 2–Manufacturing;
3–In/outbound logistics; 4–Use phase; 5–End of use/recycling.
Calculations of use phase consider 60/40 split of home/public based
charging. Grid calculations are based on EU Sphera (GaBi dataset
EU28).
2 Fisker customers have access to one year free charging on
eligible Allego charge ports only if a new Fisker Ocean car is
registered and delivered during the period commencing 2023 and
ending on March 31st, 2024. The Allego free charging period will
start after the customer has subscribed to the 'Allego 1 year free
charging' subscription package within the FISKER FLEX app.
3 This WLTP range number applies to Fisker’s European markets.
WLTP measurements conducted on Fisker Ocean Extreme with standard
20” wheels. Actual range will vary with conditions such as external
environment, vehicle configuration, wheel size and diameter, and
vehicle use. Fisker expects EPA range figures for the U.S. market
to follow shortly.
