This effort focuses on such goals as reducing the company\u2019s use of resources and minimising its CO\u2082 emissions. One highly effective way to achieve these objectives is to convert the company\u2019s fleet to fully electric vehicles (BEV) \u2013 a class of vehicles that could significantly reduce a company\u2019s overall emissions. That is why Audi is focusing on the charging current of its electric fleet as a key lever for reducing CO\u2082.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column]\n\n<div class=\"article_paragraphimage article_paragraphimage_left ap_with_subline\" style=\"width: 40%;\">\n\t<div class=\"ap_img_wrapper mylightbox_hover\">\n\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"453\" src=\"https:\/\/www.groupfleet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/a223237_large_1080-640x453.jpg\" class=\"attachment-vw_small size-vw_small open_mylightbox\" alt=\"\" data-full=\"https:\/\/www.groupfleet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/a223237_large_1080.jpg\" data-desc=\"\" \/>\t<\/div>\n\t<div class=\"article_paragraphimage_text\">\n\t\tThe solar park in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania is the first German project for the expansion of the green electricity supply.

Once in operation, these units will be capable of generating a total of approximately five terawatt hours of additional green power.
