"Nyobolt is enabling the always-on, always-moving infrastructure that physical AI demands. The enterprises deploying autonomous systems at scale can’t afford downtime, swap time, or power flickers. Our technology delivers a powerful trifecta: improved performance, exceptional durability, and a more sustainable operation, enabling a new generation of machines to run harder and smarter."
— Sai Shivareddy, Co-founder and Chief Executive Officer
The funding round was led by Volta Energy Technologies with backing from CBMM, BGF, and Cambridge Enterprise Ventures.
"Our ambition is to deliver the best fast-charging batteries to unlock the electrification of heavy-duty vehicles. The investment from our partners Volta Energy Technologies, CBMM, BGF and Cambridge Enterprise Ventures cements our ambition to achieve full-scale commercialisation and full production volume."
