26th March marked a historic moment for Virta and the wider electric vehicle industry — the processing of our 100 millionth EV charging event.
At precisely 2:00 AM (UK time) on 26th March, Virta's platform recorded its 100,000,000th EV charging event, with E.ON UK as the Charge Point Operator. More than just a number, this milestone reflects over a decade of dedication to building the infrastructure and technology that powers Europe's transition to clean, electric mobility.
From One Session to One Hundred Million
Virta's story began in November 2013, when we processed our very first EV charging session. At the time, electric vehicles were a niche technology, and the idea of a fully connected, intelligent EV charging network across Europe was still taking shape.
Since then, the landscape has transformed dramatically. EV adoption has surged, charging infrastructure has expanded rapidly, and Virta has been at the heart of it — providing the smart platform that connects drivers, charge point operators, and energy networks seamlessly.
Reaching 100 million charging events is a testament to the collective effort of our partners, Charge Point Operators, and the millions of EV drivers who choose clean transport every day.
The Numbers Behind the Milestone
Those 100 million sessions represent far more than convenience — they represent a measurable, real-world impact on our energy system and environment:
These figures illustrate the tangible contribution that smart EV charging makes — not just to individual drivers, but to Europe's broader energy transition goals.
A Shared Achievement
This milestone belongs to everyone who has been part of the journey. From our Charge Point Operators who deploy and manage charging infrastructure, to our technology and operations teams who keep the platform running 24/7, to the EV drivers who make the choice to go electric every day — this is a shared success.
We are proud to have reached this landmark event in partnership with E.ON UK, one of Europe's leading energy companies and a key partner in expanding accessible, reliable EV charging across the UK.
Looking Ahead
Reaching 100 million charging events is a proud moment — but it also sharpens our focus on what comes next. The energy transition is accelerating, EV adoption continues to grow, and the demand for smart, scalable charging solutions has never been greater.
At Virta, we remain committed to:
- Expanding our network of Charge Point Operators across Europe and beyond
- Innovating our platform to support smarter energy management and grid integration
- Driving down the cost of EV charging for operators and drivers alike
- Contributing to a future where clean transport is accessible to everyone
The next 100 million charging events are already underway. We're committed to making every single one count.
