In a nutshell

We provide the tools, our customers make it happen.

In 2013, Finnish energy utilities discussed the future of transportation. It quickly became clear that the future of transportation will be electric. Together these 18 energy utilities founded a company to build up a national charging network. Virta was born.

Our first international customers were acquired even before launching our services in Finland. The solutions have been built to support electric vehicle charging infrastructure anywhere in the world.

We empower our customers to support electric vehicles and renewable energy.
