Ebee Smart Technologies

Ebee Smart Technologies, founded in 2011, is a forward-thinking startup aiming to revolutionize urban mobility with its seamless EV charging solutions. The company's mission, led by CEO Dr. Henning Heppner and CTO Robert Weyrauch, is to make affordable and accessible charging infrastructure for electric vehicles available in public spaces. Their innovative approach involves designing a compact and highly integrated charge spot that can be seamlessly installed in existing urban fixtures such as street lights. This initiative is particularly crucial in densely populated areas where private garages are not a feasible option for overnight charging, making public charging infrastructure essential. The ebee charge point's core, the ebee charge controller, is a sophisticated technology equipped for smart city functionalities and future standards (e.g., ISO 15118). Moreover, the controller supports smart-grid and smart-city capabilities, serving as a standalone product beyond EV charging. EIT Digital Accelerator was the company's investor in the Seed Round investment at 01 October 2014, marking a significant milestone in the company's growth. Ebee Smart Technologies' innovative approach to urban EV charging infrastructure, combined with the backing from key investors, positions the company as a promising player in the future of sustainable urban mobility.
