Numocity is a leading digital platform for EV charging in India
Acquisition strengthens ABB E-mobility’s position in Asia and Middle East
Bengaluru, NFAPost: ABB announced that its E-mobility division has agreed to acquire a controlling stake in Numocity, a leading digital platform for electric vehicle charging in India. ABB will increase its shareholding to a controlling majority of 72% and has the right to become sole owner by 2026. Financial terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
The transaction is part of ABB E-mobility’s overall growth strategy and will significantly improve its position across India, as well as South East Asia and the Middle East – target regions for Numocity given increasing demand for charging solutions for two and three-wheelers, cars and light commercial vehicles.
Founded in 2018 and based in Bangalore, Numocity is a market leader in India’s EV charging sector, offering a cloud-based digital platform that allows consumers and fleet operators to use a network of fixed chargers or battery swapping solutions on a “pay as you go” basis.
The platform is also able to monitor the impact of energy use on the electricity grid. ABB already made an initial investment of seven percent as part of seed stage venture capital funding three years ago.
ABB E-mobility CEO Frank Muehlon said ABB is delighted to expand the company’s presence in the burgeoning Indian market, while also enlarging our offering in EV charging infrastructure.
“Zero-emission mobility will play a key role in the Indian government’s efforts to reduce carbon emissions, while the wider region is a hotbed of digital expertise,” said ABB E-mobility CEO Frank Muehlon.
Numocity CEO Ravikiran Annaswamy added Numacity‘s dedicated team is proud to be expanding its cooperation with ABB to offer secure, stable and seamless digital platforms for the monetization and management of EV energy infrastructure.
ABB is a world leader in EV charging solutions and the partner of choice for the world’s biggest electric vehicle OEMs and nationwide EV charging network operators, having sold more than 680,000 electric vehicle chargers across more than 85 markets; over 30,000 DC fast chargers and 650,000 AC chargers, including those sold through Chargedot.
