According to EU-Startups, Berlin-based connectivity platform ENAPI has raised €7.5 million in seed funding to expand its EV charging infrastructure solution. The investment round was led by Voyager Ventures, with participation from Project A, Seedcamp, and Helloworld VC, bringing ENAPI's total funding to €10 million following a €2.5 million pre-seed round last year.
Founded in 2024 by Jakob Kleihues and Dennis Laumen, ENAPI is developing a clearing house for EV charging that connects Charge Point Operators (CPOs) and eMobility Service Providers (eMSPs). The platform has shown impressive early traction, integrating over 350,000 charge points and securing partnerships with eight of Europe's ten largest eMSPs within six months of operation.
ENAPI's solution addresses a critical challenge in the EV charging ecosystem by simplifying transaction data exchange between CPOs and eMSPs. The platform enables seamless communication while eliminating transaction costs and improving data quality. This enhancement directly benefits drivers by providing more reliable information about charging station availability.
The fresh capital will fund ENAPI's expansion into European and US markets while strengthening its technical team. The company has also appointed Sierra Peterson to its board and welcomed Leopold Lerach as Chief Operating Officer.
CEO Jakob Kleihues emphasized their mission: "We want to make EV charging easier for everyone. Our platform makes payments and data transfer more efficient for every EV charging business."
