Sustainability and innovation are crucial in today's business world. Recognising this trend, Grundfos has taken another step towards a greener future by switching to electric vehicles. With the help of Parkl, Grundfos efficiently operates and charges its electric fleet while providing a convenient and easily accessible charging infrastructure for its employees.


By establishing the right system, electric vehicles can be efficiently charged in both office and home environments. With Parkl's smart system, the transition of the vehicle fleet to electric and the availability of convenient charging solutions have become easier.


"Switching to electric vehicles was our first step towards sustainable mobility. Thanks to Parkl's smart parking and charging system, our fleet has become more efficient, and our ecological footprint has decreased," stated Balázs Keszei, Projects Senior Facility Manager at Grundfos.

The previous successful cooperation between Eiffel Square Office Building and Parkl will allow Parkl to integrate its full range of services in the office building, located next to Nyugati Square.


The modern parking system of the building, developed and operated by Parkl, enables Grundfos to efficiently manage dozens of parking spaces through an integrated reservation system.


"Parkl has made the management of the Eiffel Square office building's parking spaces more efficient, while the installation of the EV chargers made it more convenient for our tenants to use electric vehicles," said Gábor Gáborjáni-Szabó, Head of Eiffel Square Real Estate Management, who is responsible for the office building’s operation.

In addition to the "A+" category certification of the office building, Parkl also provides the infrastructure needed for charging electric vehicles. The electric chargers installed in the building's car park make it much easier for employees to charge their vehicles during working hours. Using the Parkl app, employees can easily initiate charging and/or reserve a parking space, while the admin interface allows all charging transactions to be tracked, ensuring complete transparency and efficiency.


Grundfos also felt the need to establish electric charging infrastructure at its Törökbálint site. With the installation of 150 kW DC ultra fast chargers and AC fast chargers, the company's vehicles are always ready for longer trips or daily activities.

Through Parkl's services, Grundfos also ensured that employees could easily and seamlessly charge their electric vehicles at home, catering to employees' comfort and individual mobility needs. Parkl has already installed over 20 home chargers for Grundfos employees and plans to install more than 100 additional home charging points in the coming period.


As a result of the project, both fuel costs and greenhouse gas emissions are expected to decrease, which not only strengthens the company's sustainability profile but also increases employee satisfaction and commitment. With the mobility solutions provided by Parkl, Grundfos is rapidly advancing on the path to sustainable mobility.
