Smart Share Global Limited Launches New Power Bank Sustainability Campaign

Smart Share Global Limited (“Energy Monster” or the “Company”), a consumer tech company providing mobile device charging service, today announced the launch of its new power bank sustainability campaign.

Energy Monster’s power bank sustainability campaign is designed to enhance the utilization of power banks by incentivizing users to recycle back previously purchased power banks. While the Company’s mobile device charging service has already demonstrated a net positive environmental impact by facilitating power bank sharing and reducing individual ownership, power banks purchased by users are sometimes underutilized.

The power bank sustainability campaign serves as an avenue to redeploy power banks from users back to Energy Monster's mobile device charging service network. To participate, eligible users can easily return their previously purchased power banks to any of Energy Monster's cabinets located across China. The cabinets are equipped to conduct a thorough checkup to assess the eligibility of the returned power banks. Energy Monster will then provide users returning power banks meeting the reuse and safety standards with mobile device charging service vouchers.

“Energy Monster was founded based on the principles of shared economy and visions of a greener and more sustainable future,” said Mars Guangyuan Cai, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “We remain committed to driving environmental sustainability and fostering a community that actively participates in the responsible use of electronic devices. As the industry leader in China’s mobile device charging service market, we manage a massive distributed network of energy storage system consisting of more than 8 million power banks across China. We have, in earlier versions of this campaign, collected more than 50 thousand power banks back into our ecosystem. Going forward, we aspire for our new campaign to propel our industry and the world towards a more sustainable future.”
