The acquisition announced in August has now received all necessary regulatory approvals. Following this completion, SBRS GmbH becomes a wholly owned subsidiary of Shell, within its Downstream Mobility division.

SBRS GmbH, headquartered in Dinslaken, Germany, has a client base that includes municipalities, public transport operators, Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) and corporate partners in cities such as Cologne, Vienna and Brussels. The acquisition brings significant experience in electric bus charging and a material pipeline in electric truck charging and will expand Shell鈥檚 portfolio of lower-carbon solutions for fleet solutions and commercial road transport customers.

Istv谩n Kapit谩ny, Global Executive Vice President of Shell Mobility, said: 鈥淭his acquisition will enable us to offer more charging solutions to business customers who need to electrify and decarbonise their fleets or improve their depot charging capabilities. These include end-to-end charging solutions, customised hardware, specialised software, operations and maintenance at business premises, homes and on the go. This deal is in line with Shell鈥檚 strategy to support our customers in the sustainable growth of their businesses, and achieve our goal of becoming a net-zero emissions energy business by 2050.鈥�

SBRS GmbH joins a broad suite of companies that Shell has acquired in recent years, including , , Cable Energia, , sonnen and LimeJump. These companies support our ambition to play a key role in decarbonising the passenger and road freight transport sectors, while building a leading global position in EV charging.

This latest acquisition further expands the range of solutions we are able to provide fleet customers, which also includes Shell BioLNG and Shell Renewable Diesel currently in selected European markets.
