PULSETRAIN funding news – Munich-based PULSETRAIN Secures €6.1 Million in Seed Funding

Unlike traditional battery systems that focus on separate components, it combines the Battery Management System (BMS), inverter, and charging electronics into one integrated "In-Battery" solution.

At the heart of this system is a multilevel inverter, which improves energy efficiency by using both hardware and software. By using a single standardised system and AI, it integrates the entire powertrain inside the battery, reducing the need for extra components and increasing resource efficiency.

According to Thomas Plaschko, co-founder of PULSETRAIN: "Today’s powertrain technologies originate from traditional electrical engineering, while battery systems have their roots in chemistry. Additionally, a significant software component is required to control battery-powered vehicles. PULSETRAIN unites these three fields of expertise, developing a new, more powerful, software-driven architecture designed for e-mobility. We reduce weight, increase battery lifespan, and simultaneously lower costs. This allows manufacturers to produce lighter, more efficient, and cost-optimised vehicles, while our product’s technological openness enables them to tailor it precisely to their needs. This makes us unique in the market.”

PULSETRAIN’s technology increases the lifespan of EV batteries by up to 80%, meaning they last 18 years instead of 10, while also reducing the risk of overheating.

This allows manufacturers to create more powerful and safer electric vehicles at lower costs, which is crucial in today’s competitive market. PULSETRAIN is initially focusing on electrifying two-wheelers and commercial vehicles.

The company is also developing a platform that uses AI to analyze data in real time, offering new possibilities for fleet management, smarter charging control, and connecting vehicles to the power grid.

PULSETRAIN was founded by Leopold König (co-founder of CustomCells), Thomas Plaschko (founder of enfas), and Niclas Lehnert (co-founder of BAVERTIS). The team has many years of experience in the battery industry and building successful tech companies, along with strong industry connections.

The funding, led by Vsquared Ventures and Planet A, with support from Climate Club, will help speed up product development as the company gets ready to grow and scale.

Patrick Tucci, Principal at Vsquared Ventures, says: "PULSETRAIN delivers the disruptive innovation that will enable the Western automotive industry to remain competitive in the highly contested global market. Given the latest advancements in semiconductor technology and AI, now is the perfect moment to bring and scale this technology in the market.”

Nick de la Forge, General Partner at Planet A, says: "PULSETRAIN solves one of the biggest barriers to full-scale EV adoption today: performance. The team’s technology dramatically enhances battery efficiency, making EVs better, cheaper, and truly competitive. With resource efficiency and sustainable supply chains at the heart of the EU’s agenda for clean industrial growth PULSETRAIN is positioned to play an instrumental role in accelerating the transition."
