WattAnyWhere and SmartB have embarked on a collaboration to mitigate carbon emissions in the transportation sector. WattAnyWhere is developing an off-grid generator that uses renewable ethanol as an energy vector to power fast-charging stations for electric vehicles. SmartB’s role is to provide a unique financial service that involves appraising the environmental value generated by WattAnyWhere’s activities that reduce or remove carbon emissions.

WattAnyWhere’s solution will drastically reduce the CO2 emissions associated with fast-charging of electric vehicles, especially in countries with high emissions power plants such as Germany, The Netherlands, Greece or Poland, where electricity is used or exported with more than 300g eqCO2/kWh. As part of our collaboration, SmartB will contribute by ensuring the validation of the emission reductions created by each generator supplied by WattAnyWhere. The reductions are estimated to exceed 250tCO2e per year, and up to 600tCO2e per year. While SmartB ensures the validation and certification of the carbon emissions reduction, the second part of their financial service involves enabling the monetization of these reductions. SmartB will enable this by providing access to ex-ante financing based on the future carbon credits generated by WattAnyWhere’s solution. This creates tradable digital environmental products that can be acquired by third-party buyers interested in offsetting their emissions.
“WattAnyWhere is committed to reducing carbon emissions and believes that collaboration with a partner that can prove the reduction using WattAnyWhere generators is the best way to ensure that the solution is effective and sustainable.” said Didier Roux, CEO & Chairman at WattAnyWhere.
“We are thrilled to partner with WattAnyWhere to decarbonize the transportation ecosystem in Europe,” declared Mehdi Khlouf, Chief Sales Officer at SmartB. “Our unique financial solution facilitates an ‘insetting’ approach, empowering WattAnyWhere to offer to its customers the means to not only mitigate their own carbon emissions with utmost integrity, but also to engage in a closed-loop system of sustainability. Through this, they can reinvest the carbon credits they generate back into their own operations, seamlessly aligning environmental responsibility with their business practices.”
WattAnyWhere is a developer of advanced technology solutions that reduce carbon emissions in the transportation sector. WattAnyWhere has developed a generator that is using the biomass as an energy source, and renewable ethanol as energy vector. The goal of WattAnyWhere is to use this innovative clean energy generator to power fast-charging stations for electric vehicles. Through its collaboration with SmartB, WattAnyWhere will be able to provide a sustainable and effective solution to reduce carbon emissions in the transportation sector, helping accelerate the transition to a more electrified and decarbonized transportation system.
SmartB, through this collaboration with WattAnyWhere, not only helps to reduce carbon emissions in the transportation sector, but also promotes transparency and liquidity in environmental product trading. With SmartB’s help, WattAnyWhere will be able to validate reduction in carbon emissions in the transportation sector by using the WattAnyWhere renewable energy generators.
The collaboration between WattAnyWhere and SmartB will deliver to third-party buyers such as gas stations,a valuable certification that will enable them to offset their emissions, creating a more sustainable and decarbonized transportation system. Gas stations have a responsibility to reduce their carbon emissions in order to help create a cleaner and more efficient transportation system.
Reducing carbon emissions can help gas stations reduce operating costs in the long run by making their operations more efficient. By using renewable energy sources, gas stations can decrease their reliance on fossil fuels, reducing energy costs. Additionally, reducing emissions can help gas stations improve their public image, leading to increased customer loyalty and sales.
The collaboration between WattAnyWhere and SmartB will offer an innovative and sustainable solution to reduce CO2 emissions in the transportation sector, accelerating the transition to an electrified and decarbonized transportation system.
