Ampd Energy Secures Oversubscribed $27.3 Million in Series B Funding to Accelerate Clean Battery Energy Storage Solutions Globally
Ampd Energy, a global energy industry innovator and manufacturer of the Enertainer and Ampd Silo™ battery energy storage systems (ESS) for heavy industries, announced that it has raised $27.3 million in an oversubscribed Series B funding. The round was co-led by Kibo Invest and Openspace, the largest investor in this round, with notable participation from existing investors MTR Lab, Taronga Ventures and 2150, confirming their support and belief in Ampd Energy by participating above pro-rata. The funds will be used to further expand decarbonization across new verticals and regions.
Focusing on technical innovation and commercial viability, the company to date has deployed more than 300 units among seven countries, primarily in construction and abated over 69,000 tons of CO2, which is equivalent to removing over 88,000 cars from the road. The 2022 Earthshot Prize finalist plans to leverage this recent funding - secured in a challenging fundraising environment - to expand into new markets such as mining and manufacturing in 2025. Proceeds will also go toward targeting new geographies including the Middle East, Europe, United States and Southeast Asia, supported by their new partnership with Kibo Invest and Openspace.
