Powering a New Era of Fast Charging: Wallbox and Francis Energy Join Forces

At Wallbox, we’re on a mission to make fast charging the norm, not the exception. And we know that shaping the future of mobility isn’t just about innovation, it’s about real-world action.

That’s why we’re proud to announce our latest partnership with Francis Energy: a milestone collaboration designed to dramatically expand fast, reliable EV charging infrastructure across the United States.

As EV adoption continues to soar, the availability of accessible, high-speed charging remains one of the biggest barriers to mass-market growth. By combining expertise, innovation, and a commitment to reliability – we’re striving to eliminate one of the biggest barriers to EV adoption: charging availability. 

Building the infrastructure to meet demand

Today’s EV market is evolving fast. Analysts predict that by 2030, over 50% of new car sales in the U.S. could be electric. Yet infrastructure still lags behind, especially when it comes to fast charging that’s reliable, scalable, and ready to meet high-traffic demands.

That’s where the partnership between Wallbox and Francis Energy comes in.

As Douglas Alfaro, Wallbox’s Chief Business Development Officer, explains:

“With demand for EV infrastructure rising across the U.S., this partnership allows us to deliver fast charging solutions tailored to the needs of key regions. Together with Francis Energy, we’re delivering fast, scalable charging that integrates smoothly into existing grid systems and supports long-term electrification goals.”

This collaboration brings together two leaders in their fields: Wallbox’s intelligent energy solutions and Francis Energy’s expertise in building one of the nation’s largest fast-charging networks.

Supernova 180kW: Designed for the future of fast charging
