ZOOZ Power success of four ultra-fast EV charging sites that utilizes the ZOOZTER-100 product in Germany results in a new purchase order received by ZOOZ for a fifth site
ZOOZ Power, a leading provider of flywheel-based power management solutions for ultra-fast EV charging, is experiencing significant growth in Germany. The company's ZOOZTER-100 product is now operational at four sites, with a fifth site confirmed. Two sites in Herrenberg, operated by CPO Mer, have been successfully using ZOOZTER-100 for over a year. Recently, two new installations in Reiskirchen and Weiterstadt, operated by CPO Parkstrom, went live.
The ZOOZTER-100 is a kinetic power booster system that enables continuous ultra-fast EV charging without expensive grid upgrades. It stores power during idle times, converts it to kinetic energy, and releases it back to the grid when needed. This technology has increased power capacity by 50-100% at the new sites, enhancing charging infrastructure utilization and creating new opportunities for Charge Point Operators to expand their networks cost-effectively.

Insights
ZOOZ Power's success in Germany marks a significant milestone in the EV charging infrastructure landscape. The company's innovative ZOOZTER-100 flywheel-based power booster is proving to be a game-changer, addressing a critical bottleneck in the rapid expansion of ultra-fast EV charging networks.
The technology's ability to supplement grid power without costly upgrades is particularly noteworthy. By increasing charging capacity by
The strategic locations of the new installations along major highways and industrial areas demonstrate a savvy approach to market penetration. These high-traffic areas are likely to see increased utilization, potentially leading to faster ROI for CPOs and creating a virtuous cycle of adoption.
However, investors should note that while the German market shows promise, it's still early days. The true test will be in scaling this solution across diverse markets with varying grid infrastructures and regulatory environments. The company's ability to maintain performance and reliability as it scales will be important for long-term success.
From a financial perspective, ZOOZ Power's expansion in Germany is a positive indicator, but caution is warranted. While the company doesn't disclose specific financial figures in this announcement, the repeated orders and expansion to a fifth site suggest growing market traction.
Key financial considerations include:
- Revenue Growth Potential: The expansion from 4 to 5 sites indicates a
25% increase in deployed units in Germany. If this growth rate continues, it could translate into significant revenue expansion. - Market Validation: Repeat orders from existing customers (CPOs like Mer and Parkstrom) validate the product's value proposition and could lead to larger future contracts.
- Cost Efficiency: ZOOZ's solution allows CPOs to increase charging capacity without expensive grid upgrades, potentially improving their ROI and making ZOOZ an attractive partner for rapid expansion.
However, investors should be mindful of potential challenges:
- Capital Intensity: Manufacturing and deploying hardware solutions can be capital-intensive. ZOOZ's ability to scale production efficiently will be important for profitability.
- Competition: As the EV charging market grows, competition from both traditional and innovative solutions may intensify, potentially pressuring margins.
- Regulatory Risks: Changes in EV charging regulations or grid management policies could impact the adoption of ZOOZ's technology.
While the news is positive, a clearer picture of ZOOZ's financial health and growth trajectory will require more detailed financial disclosures in future reports.

Tel Aviv, July 30, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ZOOZ POWER Ltd. (NASDAQ and TASE: ZOOZ), the leading provider of flywheel-based boosters power management solution that enables ultra-fast multi-ports EV charging, is experiencing significant growth in Germany, due to the popularity of its ZOOZTER-100s at four sites, with a fifth one confirmed to open soon.
Two EV charging sites at Herrenberg, run by CPO Mer have each been operating successfully with a ZOOZTER-100 for over a year. This week installations at Reiskirchen and Weiterstadt both operated by CPO Parkstrom, also went live. ZOOZ’s fifth ZOOZTER-100 will soon be live, further expanding the company's footprint in the German market.
The ZOOZTER-100 is a kinetic power booster system that enables smooth, continuous ultra-fast electric vehicle (EV) charging without expensive grid upgrades. It stores power at idle times, converts it to kinetic energy and then flashes the converted energy back to the grid. This circumvents the need for immediate grid upgrades and enables ultra-fast charging when required.
The recently opened Reiskirchen and Weiterstadt sites are strategically located along the A5 Autobahn near Frankfurt. Each site features two ultra-fast chargers with a 150-kW capacity, supplemented by power from one ZOOZTER-100 unit.
The Reiskirchen installation, positioned near the intersection of major highways, has doubled its available power to 200 kW with the ZOOZTER-100. In Weiterstadt, located in a bustling industrial area south of Frankfurt Airport, the site's power capacity has increased by
Avi Cohen, Executive Chairman of ZOOZ Power said:
"The growing adoption of our ZOOZTER-100 power boosters across Germany is a testament to its effectiveness and the increasing demand for innovative flywheel-based EV charging solutions. With four operational sites and a fifth on the way, we're witnessing substantial momentum in Europe's largest EV market. Our solution is not only enhancing the charging experience for drivers but also creating new opportunities for Charge Point Operators to expand their networks cost-effectively."
As ZOOZ Power continues to expand its footprint in Germany, the company is not only enhancing the charging experience for EV drivers but also creating profitable opportunities for CPOs. This growth trajectory underscores ZOOZ Power's pivotal role in supporting the widespread adoption of electric vehicles and the development of robust charging infrastructure.
