WALLBOX RAISES €15M AND ACCELERATES GROWTH

Wallbox has completed a €15M funding round, led by Iberdrola through its Perseo start-up programme. Climate change and sustainable mobility are growing concerns for consumers that are affecting their behaviour and consumption habits.

Wallbox es una empresa española fundada en 2015 que develops and manufactures chargers for electric vehicles. In addition to being compatible with all electric models on the market, thanks to the company's remote upgrades, its products can be used to charge vehicles not yet available on the market today.

Its business model is based on the sale of charging devices to both individuals and companies, which can be installed in any home or car park with mains power and can be adapted to any type of installation and power.

A través de Perseo, programa de start-ups con el que apoya a compañías emergentes que desarrollan tecnologías clave para diseñar la energía del futuro, Iberdrola ha materializado una ronda de financiación de 15M€ for Wallbox. The capital raised will enable the company to continue the development of its ambitious product roadmap and accelerate the company's growth.
