With the additional help of the Banque Publique d’Investissement (BPI), the start-up, which develops induction charging stations for electronic vehicles, now has the means to finance its prototype and organize demonstrations and POCs (Proof of concept or proof of concept) in the fall.
The system requires a coil installed under the car to receive the terminal, which the start-up is also developing. UP&CHARGE targets company car parks and roads. Its solution is currently at the demonstrator stage.
UP&CHARGE is a company with a capital of €80,000 created in August 2021. Its objective is to participate in the energy transition by developing an innovation that optimizes and simplifies the charging of electric vehicles.
