Working towards net zero shared mobility

Shared transport can transform our cities by lowering emissions, reducing congestion, and the demand for parking spaces. Our long-term environmental goal is to offer 100% carbon net zero shared mobility solutions by 2040.

Bolt’s Green Plan and our environmental targets

In 2023, we committed to our carbon net zero goal for 2040, which is now at the centre of Bolt’s Green Plan.

Our environmental goals:

Net-zero carbon emissions by 2040.
100% renewable electricity in Bolt-controlled offices, warehouses, charging docks and Bolt Market premises by 2025.
90% of waste directed into circular economy solutions by 2030.

Expanding our zero-emission fleet

We focus on partnerships that facilitate the expansion of zero-emission (i.e. fully-electric) vehicles on our ride-hailing, car sharing, and delivery platforms.

Malta

We deployed an electric 3-wheeler ride-hailing service in partnership with Buzzz Electric.

1/6

All of Bolt’s electric scooters and e-bikes are zero-emission vehicles with no tailpipe emissions.

We offset the emissions created during the manufacturing, operating, maintenance, and disposal of these vehicles via various funding projects, making them certified CarbonNeutral®.

Powered by renewable electricity and the circular economy

We aim to use 100% renewable electricity for Bolt-controlled sites by the end of 2025.

We plan to direct at least 90% of the waste we produce back to the circular economy by 2030.

Focusing on sustainable product design

~80% of our scooters are designed in-house. Which gives us better control over the materials, maintenance and utilisation.

70% of the aluminium parts on the Bolt 6 come from recycled sources and it has an expected lifespan of eight years compared to five years of the previous model.

This means less time being repaired and charged, more shared rides per scooter, and ultimately, less emissions during the scooter life cycle.

Encouraging sustainable modal shift

Our pilot programs ↗ in 10 European cities have proven that, when encouraged, riders will opt for scooters or e-bikes instead of cars if their planned trip is under 3 km.
