Only nine months after the official founding of the company, Munich-based startup TWAICE has received another €2 million in funding. The money is provided by the Berlin venture capitalist Cherry Ventures with participation from existing investors UVC Partners and Speedinvest.

With this extended seed financing, TWAICE will secure and further expand its rapid customer expansion and business development. The significantly accelerated electrification strategy of many customers makes this possible. Additionally, more and more companies in the automotive industry are discovering TWAICE software. It can improve the use of lithium-ion batteries and extend their lifespan.

Over the past few months, TWAICE has shown in a variety of customer projects the added value that the technology can create. The benefits extend along the value chain and support different industries. Customers get more detailed knowledge of the battery operations in the process of using the TWAICE software. This helps manufacturers to validate their complex battery systems. Operators of electric vehicle fleets, for example, can reduce their operating costs by up to 25 percent through predictive maintenance and a lifetime extension.

The software is now used in trucks, cars and stationary power storage. The solution is also successfully deployed in smaller applications such as power tools. This spectrum is likely to broaden significantly in the coming years, in conjunction with the rapid expansion of electric drives in different industries.

With the new funding, TWAICE will continue to grow based on the good results in recent months. It is planning to build up its workforce rapidly in order to be able to quickly implement the current and expected order volume.

The TWAICE software creates a digital twin of battery systems. It can be used to make accurate analyses and predictions about the “health status” of every energy storage system in real time. By using sensor data, physical and data-driven battery models, TWAICE not only closes the loop between product development and application. It also opens up new possibilities, such as predictive maintenance and warranty extension. Threatening incidents, including downtimes, can be detected and prevented in good time.

The founders Stephan Rohr and Michael Baumann are pleased about the further financing round:

The incredibly strong customer interest and the expansion of our team have led to rapid professionalization within only six months”. In a first round during the autumn of 2018, TWAICE had already collected 1.2 million euros from UVC Partners and Speedinvest.

With Cherry Ventures, another top investor comes onboard. Thomas Lueke from Cherry Ventures said: 

We are excited about what a strong team of battery technology experts the founders have been able to build in such a short period of time. We are at an inflection point in the adoption of electric mobility and development of electric storage solutions. We consider the approach of TWAICE to be a unique opportunity to advance this field with software and we are convinced that digital twins will redefine the industry.
