GREEN MOBILITY
Accelerating the transition to green mobility
Transportation is a major contributor to climate change, accounting for approximately one-sixth of global emissions. Although the sector is decarbonizing at a fast pace (battery electric vehicles account for nearly 20% of new car sales), substantial and swift changes are necessary throughout the entire value chain for the sector to reach net zero.
Advancements in technology and commercial models are transforming the entire mobility ecosystem, but significant challenges remain. Widespread zero-emission vehicle adoption is hindered by insufficient charging/fueling infrastructure, high upfront costs due to expensive batteries and other key powertrain components, limited range, lengthy charging times, grid capacity constraints, and the need for greater consumer awareness and acceptance.
From charger manufacturers, automotive manufacturers, and charge point operators, to e-mobility software providers, energy companies, and investment firms, all stakeholders need to strategically position themselves and appropriately allocate capital to benefit from the transition to green mobility.

We blend strategy consulting, commercial due diligence, and financial advisory to help you succeed in the fast-moving green mobility space.”
Clients who have benefitted from our green mobility expertise
“We couldn’t have made a better choice, and the value add was tangible.”
“Apricum combines a truly differentiating understanding of the new technologies driving the energy transition with the best-in-class quality of legacy consulting firms. We have recently worked together on a capital raise in the mobility space where one of our clients hired Apricum to prepare a vendor commercial due diligence, and they proved professional, knowledgeable, and effective. We couldn’t have made a better choice, and the value add was tangible. In the past, before learning about Apricum, we hired some of the traditional consulting firms for our processes, but they lacked the flexibility and speed to ramp-up their expertise in new industrial verticals, and that came at the cost of our clients and processes. Going forward we will continue recommending Apricum as our top 1 pick for any of our clients seeking to hire a commercial advisor for maximizing the success of its process..”

“Working together with Apricum in the field of smart charging was definitely the right decision! Alongside the great expertise, always being well-structured, finding realistic solutions and the willingness to go the extra mile, it was the relaxed mood even under pressure that made the project successful.”
“It’s not obvious to me if there are any areas you could have done better… we definitely picked the right advisor.”
“Apricum struck the right balance of a structured and thoughtful approach, while remaining flexible to pivot and modify when necessary. It was clear to me that the Apricum staff had a good command of the vehicle-grid integration space (both technical and business), and the rigor that you brought in the overall approach and process was exactly what we needed. The Apricum team was extremely professional, personable and delivered the objectives”
