Electreon and Jacobs will collaborate to bring
the future of EV charging to the U.S. and beyond.
Electreon (TASE: ELWS.TA), the leading provider of wireless and
in-road wireless electric vehicle (EV) charging technology, today
announced a strategic collaboration with global technical
professional services firm Jacobs (NYSE:J). The companies will join
forces on select wireless EV charging projects across the United
States, for industry leading fleet operators including city and
state authorities, as Electreon aims to bring its cutting-edge
charging solutions to roads and facilities around the world.
“This collaboration with Jacobs marks the beginning of an
exciting new chapter as Electreon increases our presence across the
United States,” said Oren Ezer, co-founder and CEO, Electreon.
“Aligning ourselves with Jacobs allows Electreon to continuously
realize opportunities for growth and expansion. We are looking
forward to continued collaboration with the Jacobs team in Michigan
and beyond!”
Jacobs has demonstrated its commitment to investing in
leading-edge technologies. Most recently, Jacobs completed
acquisitions of mobility analytics pioneer StreetLight Data Inc.
and edge computing analytics provider BlackLynx, and entered into a
strategic relationship with Microgrid Labs Inc, a software and
consulting company specializing in planning commercial fleet
electrification and microgrids.
“Continuing to collaborate with Electreon is exciting and
directly supports Jacobs’ focus on instilling and sustaining
innovation in our company culture and the solutions we provide,”
said Jacobs Vice President and Global Transportation Market
Director Patrick King. “Jacobs is committed to providing our
transportation clients with access to innovative,
technology-enabled solutions for the specific challenges they face
– from congestion mitigation to carbon emission reduction, to full
fleet electrification.”
This news is a continuation of a successful collaboration
between Electreon and Jacobs in securing a project implementing the
first public electric road system for wireless EV charging in the
U.S. In February, Electreon announced it was awarded a Michigan
Department of Transportation (MDOT) contract for a dynamic wireless
charging pilot program in downtown Detroit—a project supported by
Jacobs among many others such as Ford Motor Co., NextEnergy, and
the City of Detroit. In keeping with
Jacobs’ commitment to support innovation aligned to its Beyond
If accelerators, the company intends to invest in Electreon to
demonstrate its commitment to the EV ecosystem.
To date, Electreon’s patented technology has been integrated
with a wide range of vehicles, as part of its ongoing
collaborations with auto manufacturers including Renault,
Stellantis, Iveco, and Volkswagen. In November, Electreon’s
wireless charging technology was named one of TIME’s 100 Best
Inventions of 2021.
