The round was led by Brookfield with participation from existing backers.
BOXT operates a digital platform that streamlines the purchase and installation of boilers, electric vehicle chargers, and smart home devices. The company connects homeowners with a network of certified engineers to deliver rapid and fixed-price home heating solutions.
BOXT has raised £20m in fresh funding led by Brookfield Infrastructure to accelerate its expansion across the UK domestic heating market. The capital will support the company in scaling its workforce, expanding its network of engineers, and furthering the development of its technology platform. The investment follows previous backing from engineering giant Bosch as the firm looks to increase its market share and promote low carbon heating solutions.
The Leeds-based technology company has experienced rapid growth since its inception, offering streamlined installation services for boilers and smart home devices. With this new injection of capital, BOXT aims to double its employee count and grow its network of engineers to meet rising consumer demand. The funding also aligns with the business goals of helping households transition to energy-efficient products and supporting national carbon reduction targets.
