The Enel Group Company, Enel X, Partnered with Banco Itaú for a Pilot Project of Electric Cars

Considering that Enel X has significant expertise in the electric mobility sector, Banco Itaú has established a new partnership with the Enel Group company for an electric car sharing service in the country. The vehicles offered include the BMW i3, JAC iEV40, Jaguar I-Pace, and Nissan Leaf.

Partnership Between Enel X and Itaú May Help Consumers Change Cars Every Year

Since last Monday (June 21), residents of São Paulo could see the Vec Itaú cars, an electric car sharing service, circulating in the streets of Greater São Paulo. The system is similar to the one already provided by the bank, known as Bike Itaú bicycles.

According to the bank, which partnered with Enel X, in this first phase, approximately 500 Itaú employees will have access to the Jaguar I-Pace, JAC iEV40, and BMW i3 electric cars, which were already planned for the service launch at the end of last year.

Words from the Itaú Unibanco Director

According to the Itaú Unibanco director, the world is constantly transforming, and the way people move around in cities is also changing. He states that the bank will add value through an innovative, safe, technological, and sustainable experience, also stimulating the electric car market in Brazil.

To use the vehicles, an initial fee and a cost per minute will be charged, but the prices have not yet been defined. The vehicles will also have internet connectivity to further facilitate the users’ journeys.

Enel X Promises Faster and More Efficient Charging Stations

The bank did not disclose where Enel X intends to operate the service; however, the Enel Group company offers a range of solutions with products, accessories, and systems for recharging electric cars. Among the solutions is the Enel X JuiceBox, a charger for sustainable vehicles that the company provides in various power ratings and compatibility with all types of vehicles.

The charger can be installed in residential, commercial, and business areas. It is a compact, high-power station with advanced control, fully portable and robust, with Wi-Fi connectivity. The product from the Enel Group company offers smart and fast charging, allowing real-time monitoring from anywhere.

Seen from space, an image taken by an astronaut shows an unlikely oasis in the Saudi Arabian desert, protected by a terrain that slows the advance of sand, surrounded by green circles, remnants of an extinct lake and nearly 10,000 years of preserved history.

While the U.S. still faces limitations in deep space, China is developing unprecedented technology with strategic satellites that maintain communication with the far side of the Moon and aims for dominance by 2030.

With 7.4 trillion tons of artificial snow pumped in 10 years, an extreme operation could stabilize the West Antarctic ice sheet and prevent a sea level rise of more than 3 meters, but it would require snow cannons, ocean water, and energy on an almost industrial scale at the end of the world.

The Blood Falls of Antarctica hide a living ecosystem trapped under the ice for over 2 million years, where microbes survive without light, without oxygen, and without ever having seen the Sun.

In the Saudi Arabian desert, the world’s largest green hydrogen plant is 80% complete and will use 4 gigawatts of solar and wind energy to produce 600 tons of clean fuel per day when it opens in 2027.

The CEO of Honor in Spain says that smartphones will change with AI, foldables, and even robot phones; the component crisis is making cheap models more expensive in 2026 and shifting the focus to premium.

Equatorial Institute opens the 2nd edition of the Equatorial Journey notice with 300 free spots for training social organizations in seven Brazilian states.

At a depth of 4 kilometers, with 90-minute descents and heat exceeding 60 °C, an operation only continues to function thanks to the pumping of liquid ice: how far can the endurance of workers in the deepest mine on the planet go?

Researchers use artificial rays to transform natural gas into methanol and create cleaner fuel; the technology reduces emissions, utilizes wasted methane, and advances global sustainable energy solutions.

In Europe, sustainable urban mobility is gaining momentum with an ambitious plan to reduce carbon emissions from transportation by up to 90% by 2040.

Venice is at real risk of disappearing under the sea by 2300, and scientists reveal 4 radical solutions ranging from billion-euro projects of up to €100 billion to the extreme decision to abandon the historic city forever.
