Seac Group acquires stake in start-up Charge Construct

The investment gives the start-up access to renewable energy technologies and secures new growth capital.

The Seac Group invests in the start-up Charge Construct for e-mobility and becomes a shareholder. In the course of the investment, Seac Group also takes over the shares of the previous minority shareholders, who thus leave the company. In return, Charge Construct will receive new growth capital in the seven-digit range.

Founded in 2020, the Ingolstadt-based start-up sees itself as a full-service provider for holistic charging solutions in the field of e-mobility. The start-up sets up charging parks and supports companies in the realization of charging infrastructure projects for their own corporate fleets. Seac Group develops and operates solar power plants and wind turbines. Now the companies want to combine their technologies.

"We are increasingly finding that customers want solar and photovoltaics to be included in concepts alongside charging solutions for electric vehicles," says Adrian Zierer, co-founder and CEO of Charge Construct. The acquisition is now expected to make it possible to use solar power to charge electric vehicles. In addition, the Seac Group is to help the start-up with scaling and internationalization.
