The integration of ABL into the Wallbox Group has already yielded encouraging results that will strengthen both companies' ability to support the EV transition.

"We are immensely proud of what we have achieved in the first six months following Wallbox’s acquisition of ABL," said Jaume Ferre, co-CEO of ABL and CTO of Wallbox. "The synergies between our companies have allowed us to move forward quickly with product integrations. We only expect this cadence to continue and to strengthen our ability to set new standards for innovation, reliability, and customer experience."

Key milestones include the launch of the ABL Pulsar which marks the first joint product from the acquisition. This innovative charging solution, which is based on Wallbox’s Pulsar Plus best-selling charger, has been designed specifically to meet the specific needs of the German home-charging market. The charger is now available to customers throughout the DACH region.

Another milestone saw Wallbox launch the eM4 across Europe in March. The eM4, is a state-of-the-art EV charger designed by ABL, specifically for commercial and shared spaces such as fleets, public parking, workplaces, and condominiums.

Also notable is the co-development of a fast-charging solution as ABL and Wallbox plan to launch a Supernova fast charger for public application in the German market. Given ABL’s extensive experience in German product compliance and Wallbox’s success developing reliable DC fast chargers, the Group expects to launch a DC fast charger in Germany later this year.

In addition, Wallbox and ABL have consolidated their DACH sales strategy. Led by ABL’s experienced team, the regional sales strategy leverages the Group’s strong combined portfolio, which covers most of the market's needs.

The integration of ABL into the Wallbox Group is another example of effective and continuous consolidations within the EV charging industry. ABL is the fourth company to join the Wallbox Group and is complementary to previous acquisitions.
