Management says the new capital will support worldwide sales and operational efficiency as Wallbox pursues a path to profitability. The reported investment strengthens Wallbox’s balance sheet and financial position. Shareholder participation in the round demonstrates continued investor confidence in the company’s long-term strategic goals and leadership in the EV charging industry. Wallbox develops chargers for electric vehicles and energy‑management systems. The company announced a $45 million (≈€41.5M) capital increase, of which $35 million came from Generac Power Systems. The financing strengthens Wallbox’s balance sheet and provides capital to accelerate manufacturing capacity and scale charger sales globally, with a focus on the fast‑growing North American market. The strategic partnership with Generac is intended to enable deeper integration with Generac’s energy‑management systems and access to its distribution network. This deal follows a commercial relationship announced in December and the appointment of Paolo Campinoti, Executive Vice President of Generac International, to Wallbox’s board. Company leadership framed the investment as a vote of confidence from shareholders and a step toward long‑term value creation. Wallbox develops EV charging hardware and energy-management software, offering home chargers, the bidirectional Quasar 2 and the Supernova ultra-fast public charger. The company also provides installation services through COIL, which Wallbox acquired in 2022. Wallbox emphasizes managing generation, storage and distribution to support greater electrification and renewable-energy adoption. The firm aims to accelerate development of energy ecosystems for commercial public sites such as supermarkets, shopping centers and restaurants. As part of its go-to-market strategy, Wallbox is expanding distribution and partnerships to increase accessibility, particularly in the United States. Financially, Wallbox recently completed a €29 million capital increase that brought strategic industrial and investor partners into the cap table.

The company sells to more than 50 countries and operates offices in Europe, Asia and America, supported by two company-owned factories and about 350 staff.
