Feb 2024Undisclosed stageAntin Infrastructure Partners (lead); Grupo Arie (lead)$108MPowerdot is a Lisbon-based electric vehicle (EV) charging point operator (CPO) active in Europe, operating over 5,000 charging points across Portugal, France, Spain, Poland, and Belgium as of early 2024. The company focuses on high-powered, fast-charging stations to support sustainable mobility and decarbonization of transport. In February 2024, Powerdot closed a €100 million ($108 million) equity funding round led by existing investors Antin Infrastructure Partners and Arié Group, marking a follow-on to Antin's €150 million co-controlling stake investment in May 2022 alongside Arié Group. The new capital is earmarked for expanding charging infrastructure by adding 10,000 more points at over 1,400 locations, advancing R&D in technology, and forging strategic partnerships across Europe. Powerdot plans significant investments by 2025, including €260 million total across markets: €30 million each in Portugal and Spain, €153 million in France, €5 million in Belgium, and €42 million (PLN 200 million, $49 million) in Poland for infrastructure. In Poland alone, it has launched over 250 spots and is building 1,500 more, aiming to triple high-capacity DC connectors over 100 kW. The funding supports a 218% rise in kWh consumption in 2023 and positions Powerdot to lead in dense networks of accessible, efficient EV charging. CEO Luís Santiago Pinto highlighted the investment's role in transformative growth and network expansion, while Antin NextGen partner Anand Jagannathan emphasized Powerdot's role as scalable, connected infrastructure for tomorrow. Arié Group's David Arié expressed excitement as an early backer.
May 2022Undisclosed stageAntin Infrastructure Partners (lead)$161MPower Dot is a Portugal-founded owner-operator of electric vehicle charging infrastructure operating across Europe. Founded in 2018, the company operates destination and en-route EV charging points at hotels, stores, and other locations. At the time of the Antin investment in May 2022, Power Dot operated approximately 5,000 charging points with an additional 10,000 in deployment pipeline. The company's EV chargers had powered more than 26 million fully electric driven kilometres since inception. Antin Infrastructure Partners, a €22 billion AUM Paris-based infrastructure private equity firm, acquired a co-controlling stake in Power Dot through its NextGen investment platform in May 2022. The transaction involved a €150 million equity investment and was structured as a growth capital raise, with participation from existing shareholders including Arié Group and the company's founders. The investment was subject to customary antitrust approvals with expected closing in late Q2/early Q3 2022. Financial advisors included UBS for Antin and Improved CF for Power Dot's existing shareholders, with legal counsel from Orrick and Linklaters respectively. The investment reflected Antin's thesis on next-generation sustainable infrastructure, capitalizing on EU regulatory momentum toward banning internal combustion vehicles by 2035 and the expected 50% EV market penetration by 2030.
