EBRO Boosts EV Charging with Innovative LYRA 80 at Barcelona Facility

Zona Franca de Barcelona, Barcelona, Cataluña, España - In a remarkable move to enhance its production capabilities, EBRO has partnered with the Catalan startup FLOOX to install the innovative LYRA 80 rapid chargers at its factory in the Zona Franca of Barcelona. This partnership is a big step for EBRO as it aims to improve the efficiency and sustainability of its assembly line. The LYRA 80, boasting a charging capacity of 80 kW, is not only compact but also designed to thrive in demanding industrial environments. The selection was made due to its technical efficiency and eco-friendly features, highlighting that there’s something to be said for sustainability in modern manufacturing.

These LYRA chargers are manufactured in L’Hospitalet de Llobregat, Cataluña, and are built with recycled steel and 90% recyclable components. With this project, EBRO will be able to charge up to two vehicles at the same time and replenish their batteries from 20% to 80% in just 20 minutes. Such efficiency will keep production on full throttle and maintain the rhythm required in today’s competitive market.

FLOOX’s Expanding Horizons

For FLOOX, this initiative marks an exciting chapter in their growth story. After installing over 300 chargers in Spain by 2025, the company is now making strides towards internationalization. Their focus spans across countries such as France, Austria, Denmark, Latvia, and Argentina, which is no small feat for a startup that reported revenues exceeding 3.5 million euros as of last year. FLOOX has plans to solidify its presence on the global stage throughout 2025, showcasing that startup energy can indeed carve pathways in the industrial supply chain.

The growth of FLOOX and its benefits for EBRO shine a light on the broader developments in electric vehicle charging technologies across Europe. With other startups and established companies heavily investing in EV charging solutions, the industry is witnessing an exciting period. Research from Energy Startups outlines key players and their substantial funding, underscoring the recognition that high-quality electric vehicle infrastructure is a priority global concern.

• ChargePoint (USA) – Funding: $1.4B; specializes in an open electric vehicle charging network.
• TeraWatt Infrastructure (USA) – Funding: $1.2B; operates EV charging infrastructure for transport and fleets.
• Komma5° (Germany) – Funding: €652M; aims for carbon-neutral solutions including EV charging.
• EVgo (USA) – Funding: $527.6M; provides fast charging networks for electric vehicles.
• Bump (France) – Funding: $180M; designs and operates EV charging infrastructure.

This wave of innovation and investment in charging infrastructure could very well redefine the way we think about electric vehicles and their support systems. As EBRO integrates FLOOX’s rapid chargers into their production line, they not only advance their manufacturing process but also contribute to a greener future. Indeed, in the world of electric vehicles, having a good hand in efficient charging solutions is now more essential than ever.

As we look forward to upcoming events like EVS38 in Sweden, where FLOOX will further showcase its offerings, it’s clear that electric mobility is at a turning point. With such partnerships and innovations in play, the future of transport seems electrifying.
