Monta will welcome 30 employees to its US headquarters in Miami by the end of 2025. The company’s US expansion plan includes connecting 25,000 commercial charge points to its platform by the end of 2025 and 1 million charge points by the end of 2030.
In the UK, Monta has established a strong presence with partnerships with Rolec, Egg, and SyncEV which are all using the Monta platform’s capabilities to manage their fleets, home and work charging needs, as well as Monta’s extensive roaming network consisting of over 600,000 charge points.
The EV market in the US continues to grow rapidly, following in the footsteps of European adoption rates. BCG estimates that nearly half of all new car sales in the US will be electric by 2030 , with 38 percent of Americans saying their next vehicle purchase will be an EV . Consumer demand is also supported by the necessary investment in charging infrastructure, with the goal of half a million public chargers in place in the next five years.
Yet significant challenges remain within the charging experience in the US, with a quarter of all charges still unsuccessful, and an additional 12 percent successful but with reduced power, according to ChargeHub.
This is due to various issues ranging from user interface problems, deficient software glitches, and complex payment processes on several mobile apps and credit card readers. Software tools are needed to enable a smoother, better-optimised charging experience and unlock EV adoption at scale in the US
“EV and charging infrastructure are a cornerstone of the global shift towards decentralised electrification, and Monta’s software platform is the backbone enabling this critical transition in energy and mobility” said Casper Rasmussen, CEO and co-founder of Monta. “With over 1.2 million EVs now on UK roads, and the number is rapidly increasing, Monta is helping to ensure that both drivers and businesses have the seamless charging experience needed to support this unprecedented growth in the adoption of clean transportation solutions. The success we have and will keep having in the UK and Europe is the fuel of our experience and US expansion. As EV adoption picks up pace in the United States, industry players will need a platform like ours to take their business to the next level. Across Europe, charging operators have been using Monta to scale up and deliver an improved experience for EV drivers for the last four years. Our customers and partners, many of whom already operate in the US or have plans to expand there, have been asking us to bring Monta’s solution across the Atlantic to continue fueling growth across the EV charging infrastructure ecosystem. We are thrilled to announce our US expansion and are thankful to our partners and investors for their support in our mission of enabling e-mobility and electrification across the globe.”
Miami is a strategic choice for the company’s US office, offering access to talent, ecosystem, and international opportunities in a city that is rapidly becoming a tech powerhouse. Early-stage investment into Greater Miami has more than tripled over the past five years with a positive trend observed over the past decade .
Furthermore, local universities and institutions invest heavily in preparing students for tech careers, offering amazing recruitment opportunities for Monta.
“Miami’s growth as a hub for innovation is clear, and we are excited to welcome Monta as they expand their US presence” added Mayor Francis X. Suarez, City of Miami Mayor. “With venture capital investments in the Miami metro area reaching $628.8 million in Q3 alone, our city continues to attract leading companies in critical industries like EV infrastructure. Monta’s dedication to enhancing electric mobility aligns perfectly with our commitment to sustainable solutions, and we look forward to supporting their local and global efforts.”
Since its founding in late 2020, Monta has become Europe’s de facto platform for simplifying and streamlining the deployment, use, and management of EV charging infrastructure for businesses and operators. Monta’s solution also assists hardware manufacturers in optimising their products by enabling them to benchmark charge point brands, provide insights into usage and performance, and speed up troubleshooting and maintenance time.
With two million monthly charging sessions and 165,000 commercial charge points on its platform, Monta has experience working with global partners like Siemens, hardware manufacturers like Rolec, and charge point operators like Uno-X or Eliso, among others. With its expansion into the US, Monta also announced a partnership with Emobi, the largest EV charging ecosystem in North America, to instantly bring its software to more than 118,000 charge points there.
