Qwello, a fast-growing European provider of public EV charging infrastructure, has secured growth equity investment of up to EUR 55 million from ABN AMRO Sustainable Impact Fund (“ABN AMRO SIF”) and existing shareholders, including Tiger Infrastructure Partners (“Tiger Infrastructure”), which has supported Qwello’s impressive growth since 2021. The investment will support the continued expansion of Qwello’s public charging network across European cities, alongside selective acquisitions that complement its existing business.

The new equity investment further strengthens Qwello’s financial foundation as it scales its privately financed charging infrastructure in close partnership with municipalities. Qwello currently operates more than 19,500 charge points across more than 800 municipalities in Denmark, France, Germany, the Netherlands, Poland, Sweden, Spain, and the United Kingdom, and the company  plans to significantly expand its footprint over the next decade. Qwello’s focus remains on densely populated urban and residential areas, where convenient and reliable public charging is essential to the transition to electric mobility.

IMPROVED acted as the exclusive financial advisor to Qwello on this transaction, positioning the company as a multi-market infrastructure platform and running a targeted process with infrastructure and impact investors. IMPROVED led the transaction from positioning through documentation to close. The transaction follows IMPROVED’s advice to Qwello on its majority acquisition of Groen-Eco and builds on our track record across EV charging and broader electrification infrastructure.

"This investment marks another important step in Qwello’s European growth journey and reflects the confidence of our long-standing financial partners in our business model and operational performance. With additional capital, we are even better positioned to pursue attractive acquisition opportunities, integrate acquired businesses successfully and accelerate the growth of our network to make reliable public charging more accessible across European cities."

Dr. Henrik Thiele

Managing Director, Qwello Group

"I am very delighted to have worked with IMPROVED on this transaction. Their continued effort, from positioning through to documentation and close, made the difference, and the outcome puts Qwello in a strong position for its next phase of growth, including acquisitions."

Stephan van Dongen

CFO, Qwello Group

“Qwello has demonstrated the operational and commercial discipline we look for in infrastructure businesses. Its ability to expand a scalable public charging network while selecting and successfully integrating acquisitions is particularly compelling. Through its privately financed infrastructure model and close partnerships with municipalities, Qwello is helping develop the charging capacity needed for Europe’s transition to electric mobility.”

Gaetano Giuffré

Senior Investment Manager, ABN AMRO Sustainable Impact Fund

“Qwello has built a profitable, scalable platform for on-street AC charging across Europe. We are delighted to have brought ABN AMRO SIF on board as a new institutional partner alongside Tiger Infrastructure, giving Henrik and the team strong backing for the next phase of growth.”
