Enteligent is supplying the world’s first long-dwell-time 25kW DC-to-DC EV charger to a large logistics company to power its newly electrified delivery fleet. The funding round was led by Taronga Ventures, a leading global technology investor focused on driving innovation across real asset sectors such as infrastructure and real estate. This recent funding round brings the company’s total fundraising to US$19 million since 2021, with historical investment from Nova, an affiliate of global building materials company Saint-Gobain.
In addition to its 25kW DC-to-DC fleet charging platform, Enteligent is pre-selling its solar-powered TLCEV T1 EVSE, which runs directly from the sun and provides convenient and affordable daytime charging directly from on-site solar generation. The approach fosters a fundamental shift in energy consumption habits so solar power can be used to charge where it is generated. The DC-coupled charger delivers up to 12.5 kW of fast DC charging – twice as fast as many AC Level 2 EV chargers. This model and other Enteligent DC-to-DC EV chargers eliminate the unnecessary DC-to-AC-to-DC conversion losses of AC-powered EVSEs, resulting in up to 20% energy savings.
Enteligent’s NMax PV module power optimisers with rapid shutdown safety capabilities ensure each panel operates at maximum output continuously. The company offers the only module-level power electronic (MLPE) to provide both rapid shutdown device (RSD) capabilities and panel-level performance data over PLC, yielding an average of 10% higher electricity yield from typical rooftop solar installations. Solar inverter suppliers integrating Enteligent’s NMax PV module-level optimisers as a branded package, qualify for the full Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) Manufacturing Tax Credit (45X MPTC).
