Electric mobility increases the air quality of our cities and reduces noise pollution. To fast forward the transition towards sustainable mobility Allego believes that anyone with an electric vehicle should be able to charge whenever and wherever they need. That’s why Allego and its partners are working towards providing simple, reliable, and affordable charging solutions.

Allego was founded in 2013 in the Netherlands as part of grid operator Alliander. They have been independent in advice, service, and operation of charging solutions ever since. In 2018 Allego became part of Meridiam and rapidly expanded its network throughout Europe. In March 2022, they became a publicly listed company on the New York Stock Exchange.

Allego offers smart charging solutions for electric cars, motors, buses, and trucks. For consumers, businesses, and cities. Its end-to-end charging solutions makes it easier for businesses and cities to deliver the infrastructure drivers need, while the scalability of the products makes them the partner of the future.

Allego is also building an international charging network with already 28,000+ charge points operational throughout Europe. Its charging solutions are always connected to the EV-Cloud platform. It gives the customers and themself a full portfolio of features and services, created to give you the flexibility to meet and exceed your needs. Allego does this independent, reliable and safe. That’s how they can ensure that its customers can always charge, regardless of which charge station they are at or with which car, motor, bus, or truck they want to charge.

Company culture

Allego’s company culture is described as innovative and reliable, ambitious yet realistic. As a colleague, they expect you to make mistakes, and that you will all learn from them, but also that you will excel yourself and take the rest with you. Allego performs best in collaboration with others: clients, partners, and the e-drivers themselves. And, of course, with their own colleagues. Next to the advantages experienced from working together at the spacious office in Arnhem, they also acknowledge the benefits of working from home. That is why Allego encourages hybrid working.
