Numbat Energy: Pioneer in Clean-Tech and E-Mobility
editAbout the Company
editNumbat Energy is an innovative Clean-Tech start-up based in Kempten in the Allgäu, founded in 2021. The company has quickly developed into a significant player in the market for high-performance charging systems and sustainable energy solutions. With a team of over 140 employees at locations in Kempten, Hamburg, Aachen, and Munich, Numbat is working to advance electric mobility and the energy transition.
Key Products and Services
editNumbat's flagship product is the combination of a high-speed charging station (HPC) and a powerful battery storage system. The Numbat enables fast and efficient charging of electric vehicles with up to 300 kW, allowing a vehicle to be charged to 80% in just 15 minutes. This technology reduces electricity costs and relieves the power grid, as the battery storage system stores electricity from renewable sources such as photovoltaic systems, wind turbines, or hydropower plants and releases it when needed[3][5].
Main Mission and Values
editNumbat Energy is committed to making a significant contribution to the energy transition and climate protection. The company is dedicated to the development and marketing of sustainable technologies to make electric mobility widespread and economically viable. Numbat's mission is based on the principles of Environmental Social Governance (ESG), which are integrated into all areas of the company. Numbat engages early in environmental, social, and governance initiatives and has created a voluntary ESG report to demonstrate transparency and accountability[3][5].
Sustainability Goals and Initiatives
editA central goal of Numbat is the reduction of emissions and the promotion of sustainable mobility. By using renewable energies and recycling used battery cells, Numbat extends the lifespan of batteries and saves resources. The company plans to expand over 400 systems nationwide to ensure comprehensive access to fast charging infrastructure[3].
Digital Advertising and Interaction
editIn addition to charging infrastructure, Numbat also offers innovative digital advertising solutions. The Electric-Vehicle-Digital-Out-Of-Home (EV-DOOH) technology enables dynamic and interactive advertising campaigns based on real-time data such as weather and prices. These ads are displayed on the 75-inch screens of the Numbat stations, ensuring high attention and interaction with target audiences[3][5].
Current Developments
editDespite a good order situation and successful partnerships with large companies such as Tegut, Euronics, and Shell, Numbat Energy has had to file for insolvency due to a highly competitive market, high infrastructure costs, and low utilization of charging stations. However, the company continues to work on its continuation and restructuring within an insolvency process to maintain its services unchanged for the time being and to get back on track in the long term[2].
