"In recent years, several European countries have adopted models similar to FaaS, supported by infrastructure funds, green bonds and public guarantees. These initiatives, which have enabled the financing of electric buses and fleets, trams, digital ticketing systems and MaaS platforms, confirm that FaaS is one of the most successful solutions for fleet decarbonisation. However, many providers of this model focus on individual aspects of the transition: some on electric vehicles, others only on infrastructure."
"Unlike partial approaches focused only on vehicles or infrastructure, the Italian company offers an integrated ecosystem: electric buses, depot electrification, mobile charging, digital services, financing, and battery lifecycle management. Operators access the service through a flexible monthly fee, with no upfront investment, while E-GAP assumes operational risk and ensures asset performance. The first Italian Fleet-as-a-Service project, launched by E-GAP in Rome, confirms the technical and financial viability of the model."
The shift to zero-emission public transport in Europe is accelerating due to regulatory pressure and new financing tools. E-GAP offers a turnkey Fleet-as-a-Service model that integrates electric buses, depot electrification, mobile charging, digital services, financing, and battery lifecycle management. Operators access the full ecosystem through a flexible monthly fee with no upfront investment, while E-GAP assumes operational risk and guarantees asset performance. The first Italian project in Rome supplies over 250 electric buses and more than 100 high-power charging points, delivering fast charging powered entirely by certified renewable energy. The model targets comprehensive fleet decarbonisation rather than partial solutions.
