The Renault-Nissan Alliance is developing a partnership with The Mobility House (TMH), an Austrian based electric mobility solutions provider, to promote zero-emission mobility in Austria and Switzerland.

Under a Memorandum of Understanding, the Renault Nissan Alliance and TMH plan to offer electric vehicle customers a competitive e-mobility package through the respective Nissan and Renault EV dealers in those markets.

The package will include the necessary infrastructure for charging Alliance electric cars and also the installation of such a unit. TMH will secure the electricity for the charging unit through its network of local utility providers.

In Austria, TMH will also provide customers with certification that the electricity from their charging unit is derived from renewable energy sources, making them eligible for electricity subsidies in that market.

This service will start with the award-winning Nissan LEAF, which arrives in Europe this year, the first in a series of 100% electric cars to be launched by the Alliance.
