MaaS (Mobility as a Service)

Mobility of the future

Mobility is evolving rapidly thanks to new technologies, transforming the way we get around. More and more people are opting for shared vehicles, an alternative that allows paying only for time of use and eliminates the fixed maintenance costs associated with car ownership.

In this context, the concept of "Mobility as a Service" (MaaS) emerges, which integrates various modes of transport into a single platform accessible via the Internet. These services not only offer a convenient and safe experience, but also adapt to the changing needs of users, promoting more efficient and sustainable mobility in our cities.

What is MaaS or “mobility as a service”?

MaaS is the acronym for "Mobility as a Service". A new concept in the field of urban mobility that seeks to integrate various means of transport into a service accessible through a single platform or mobile application.

In this way, MaaS users have access to a variety of options that perfectly complement their own vehicle, from public transport to shared mobility options such as scooters, bicycles, and motorcycles.

Benefits of mobility as a service

For users

Cost savings. Users can opt for the most economic mode of transport for each trip, such as public transport or carpooling.

For cities

Reduction of traffic congestion. It promotes the use of shared and public transport, which can reduce the number of vehicles on the streets. This means less need for parking and more space for other urban uses.
Improvement in transport efficiency. The data generated by MaaS can help authorities better plan and manage transport infrastructure.
Promotion of sustainable mobility. The possibility of choosing between different mobility options could reduce the number of cars on the road, which contributes to reducing emissions.

What does MaaS represent for the transport sector?

At Repsol, we are committed to the transformation of the mobility sector, promoting innovative and sustainable solutions. Making the most of our extensive network of service stations and our strong strategic alliances, we are integrating our energy services with MaaS platforms. This initiative seeks to improve accessibility and convenience for users, while it contributes to our aim of achieving Net Zero Emissions by 2050.

A tangible example of this commitment is our collaboration with Wible, a carsharing service that operates in Madrid. Wible vehicles can be charged at our service stations, facilitating the integration of shared mobility with our energy infrastructure.

Our commitment to MaaS goes beyond carsharing. We also take part in other initiatives, such as renting, in collaboration with companies such as Alphabet and MasQRenting. These partnerships increase the sustainable transport options for users, offering efficient electric mobility solutions and other renting alternatives.
