AmpUp, a provider of EV charging solutions, announced a partnership with Roundtrip EV Solutions Inc., a medium and heavy-duty electric vehicle company. AmpUp will deliver fleet electrification solutions and manage Roundtrip EV’s charging network.
The partnership focuses on advancing depot-based fleet electrification in the waste management sector.
“Fleet operators transitioning to electric vehicles, especially in demanding sectors like waste management, require sophisticated yet intuitive tools to manage their operations,” said Tom Sun, co-founder and CEO of AmpUp. “In this industry, reliability is paramount—downtime is simply not an option. Charger outages can’t interrupt municipal and private fleets and refuse pickups; trucks must be ready to roll daily. Our partnership with Roundtrip EV demonstrates our commitment to delivering end-to-end solutions that address these unique complexities of fleet electrification.”
