Oyika is a Singapore-based Battery-as-a-Service company that runs a network of automated battery-swapping stations for electric motorbikes across Southeast Asia. Riders subscribe to a plan and swap a depleted battery for a fully charged one in under a minute, removing the two biggest barriers to EV adoption: long charging times and the high upfront cost of a battery. Its bike-agnostic, IoT-connected batteries also double as portable power for off-grid communities. Backed by Banpu NEXT and Yinson, Oyika operates in Indonesia, Cambodia, Malaysia and Thailand.
Swap Energi is an Indonesian e-mobility startup that runs Southeast Asia's largest battery-swapping network for electric motorcycles. Instead of waiting to charge, riders exchange a depleted portable lithium-ion battery for a fully charged one at more than 1,500 stations - a process that takes roughly nine seconds. The company pairs this energy network with its own SMOOT smart electric motorcycles and a rider app, and has raised about US$29 million to electrify Indonesia's fleet of over 125 million two-wheelers.
EVmatch is a California-based cleantech company that builds software and services to make electric-vehicle charging affordable, shared, and reservable - especially for the hardest places to electrify, like apartment complexes, condos, and commercial properties. Founded out of a UC Santa Barbara master's thesis, the company began as a peer-to-peer marketplace letting home charger owners rent out their stations and has grown into a full EV charging management platform that pairs reservation software, load management, and rebate-navigation services so property owners can deploy charging without straining budgets.
Monterra is a San Francisco software startup building design and planning tools for the people who physically install EV chargers. Its platform lets charging contractors design site layouts on satellite imagery, model costs in real time, and auto-generate customer-ready proposals, bills of materials, and electrical schematics - collapsing a process that used to take weeks of engineering and tool-hopping into minutes. Founded in 2022 by David Kim and Kelson Reiss, the company raised a $2.5M pre-seed round led by Base10 Partners in November 2023 to help cut the 'soft costs' that slow down America's charging buildout.
L-Charge designs, manufactures, and operates scalable off-grid ultrafast EV charging solutions. Using modular power units that run on natural gas, renewable natural gas, and other low-carbon fuels, the company delivers Charging-as-a-Service to commercial fleets, ports, airports, school districts, and construction sites - bypassing utility queues and grid bottlenecks.
Merge Electric Fleet Solutions is a Houston-based company that gives commercial fleets a clear, affordable, data-driven path to going electric. Launched in 2021 by EV industry veteran Glen Stancil and backed by Pickering Energy Partners, Merge handles the full journey - analyzing which vehicles to electrify, designing and deploying charging infrastructure, and operating it - through products like EV360 fleet analysis, PowerRail modular charging, and the all-inclusive FleetScription EV subscription. The pitch is simple: electrification simplified.
