It's all about people
Well, hello there!
We are Elaway. A young and hungry scale-up with Norwegian roots. In 2022, we expanded to Sweden and Germany ready to accelerate the green transition in Europe – and we have big plans ahead!
As you might know, Norway loves electric vehicles. Almost 80% of all new cars sold in 2022 were electric, and the trend is rising fast. The country has been the perfect playground for us while experimenting with a platform to enable the initiation and construction of charging facilities. Over one 170 000 parking spots have access to an EV charging point through Elaway and our service. But that's just the beginning. The whole world needs to run on electric energy, and we are going to do our part by making charging facilities available.

About Elaway
Norway has become a go-to place for learning about electric vehicles (EVs) and renewable energy, and at the heart of it all is Elaway, a scale-up founded in hydropower. After five years in operation, we've proudly built 1,400 charging facilities, serving over 140,000 parking spaces across our four markets. In 2022, we expanded our footprint to Sweden and Germany, drawing on our experience to make EVs more accessible throughout Europe. In 2024, we have added Denmark as our fourth market.
Elaway is a rapidly growing player in a fast-moving industry. Our goal is straightforward: to speed up the transition to EVs as part of the solution to the climate crisis. We're backed by three solid partners: Hafslund and Eviny, who bring over a century of electrification experience, and SUSI Partners, where we're part of the SUSI Energy Transition Fund.
