Parcel Logistics: Cargo Bikes in Berlin
A European parcel operator runs electric cargo bikes in Berlin on Swobbee battery infrastructure. Same-day delivery in pedestrian zones, without diesel vans.

Depot Infrastructure
Integrated Swobbee stations at micro-depot locations for efficient fleet management.

Rapid Exchange
Swap instead of charge—couriers stay operational without depot returns.

Continuous Operations
Riders never wait for a charge cycle. Depots stay productive throughout the shift.

Fleet Management
Cargo bikes at a micro-depot.

Real-World Performance
Operating in Berlin's pedestrian zones—last-mile delivery without diesel vans.
Optimized for High-Volume Operations
Location Strategy
Stations at high-demand intersections and logistics hubs. Riders reach a station with a short detour.
Demand-Matched Inventory
Inventory scaled to peak hours. Live availability per station on the operator dashboard.
Platform-Agnostic
One station serves multiple delivery platforms simultaneously. No per-platform hardware.
Rapid Exchange
Exchange a discharged battery for a charged one—no waiting for charge cycles.
App Integration
Real-time availability shown in delivery apps—riders reserve batteries before arriving at station.
Usage Analytics
Depending on market and permissions, Swobbee systems provide State of Charge, battery-error and swap-history information.
Flexible Deployment Models
Platform Partnerships
Delivery apps integrate swap access into their rider apps—subscription models or per-swap pricing based on volume.
- Volume-based pricing
- Fleet management dashboard
- Usage analytics & reporting
- Custom SLA agreements
Independent Riders
Individual couriers purchase swap credits or monthly memberships—providing flexibility for gig workers across multiple platforms.
- Pay-per-swap option
- Monthly unlimited plans
- Mobile app access
- No lock-in contracts

Supporting Mobility Operators
Operators stop collecting batteries at night. The vehicles stay out, and the batteries come to the station instead.
E-Scooter Shares
Operators stop driving batteries around the city at night. The vehicle stays where the last rider left it.
Bike Share Programs
Municipal and private bike shares use swap-ready batteries, so a flat battery is a stop at a station rather than a service call.
E-Moped Services
Shared moped operators use our high-capacity batteries for longer-range urban transport services.
Eliminate Collection Logistics
Automated Rebalancing
Riders naturally rebalance fleet by swapping batteries at strategic locations—reducing need for repositioning trucks.
Higher Vehicle Utilization
Scooters stay deployed 24/7 instead of being collected nightly for charging—increasing revenue per vehicle.
Lower Operating Costs
Eliminate overnight charging warehouses, collection vehicles, and gig worker swapping fees.
Managed Charging
Batteries are charged in the station instead of at improvised sockets. Swobbee provides a controlled charging environment designed to support safer battery charging.
Charging Outside Buildings
Charging outside homes can reduce reliance on residential battery charging.
Data & Analytics
Usage tracking through our platform. Depending on market and permissions, Swobbee systems provide State of Charge, battery-error and swap-history information.
Flexible Infrastructure Options
Operator-Owned Stations
Mobility operators deploy branded swap stations at their own locations—full control over user experience and pricing.
- White-label hardware
- Custom branding
- Direct customer relationship
- Revenue retention
Swobbee Network Access

- Flexible pricing
Working with Operators Across Europe
Scale Your Mobility Network
Contact our partnerships team to discuss infrastructure deployment for your shared mobility operation.
Fleet Electrification
Battery infrastructure for businesses moving to electric vehicles — from depot installations to access to the public network.
Corporate Fleets
Fleets that charge at the depot and need somewhere to go when a vehicle runs out between appointments.
Courier Services
Express operators running cargo e-bikes across several shifts a day, where the vehicle rarely stands still long enough to charge.
Municipal Services
City maintenance, cleaning and inspection vehicles. One battery type across departments means one spare pool.
Depot & Network Access
Private Depot Charging
Dedicated infrastructure installed at fleet operation centers—full control over charging schedules and battery allocation.
High-Capacity Stations
Scalable modules based on fleet size and operational requirements.
Fleet Management Dashboard
Real-time visibility into battery availability, vehicle readiness, and usage patterns across entire fleet.
Custom SLAs
Uptime commitments, priority support and maintenance are agreed per contract.
Public Network Access
Fleet operators integrate with Swobbee's public charging network—providing roadside coverage for drivers away from depot.
Route Coverage
Stations sited along the routes drivers already ride, so a swap does not cost a detour.
Centralized Billing
Corporate accounts with usage tracking and one invoice. Drivers do not pay at the station.
No Capital Investment
Pay per use instead of buying hardware. Adding vehicles does not mean buying another station.
Total Cost of Ownership Reduction
Lower Fuel Costs
Electric operation reduces fuel costs on high-utilization fleets.
Reduced Maintenance
Electric drivetrains eliminate oil changes, transmission service, and many wear components—lower maintenance overhead.
Charging Off the Vehicle
Batteries are charged in the station, not on the vehicle.
Tax Incentives
Fleet electrification may qualify for public funding programmes. Availability depends on country and programme.
Reporting Data
Usage and swap data support emissions and ESG reporting.
Predictable Budgeting
Fixed per-mile or per-swap pricing enables accurate fleet cost forecasting—no fuel price volatility.
Fleet Success Stories
Parcel Logistics — Cargo E-Bikes
A European parcel operator runs electric cargo bikes with Swobbee battery swapping in pedestrian zones in German cities—last-mile delivery without diesel vans.
Electrify Your Commercial Fleet
Contact our enterprise team to discuss depot infrastructure, network access, and fleet electrification strategies.
Autonomous Operations
Swobbee builds battery charging cabinets for commercial drone batteries.
Delivery Robots
Sidewalk robots for food, grocery and parcel delivery. Swapping without a person present is the condition for a route that does not end at a charger.
Commercial Drones
UAV delivery, inspection and survey flights, where the limiting factor is time on the ground rather than time in the air.
Service Robots
Cleaning, security and inspection robots in commercial buildings. Integration with building management is a project question, not a product feature.
