Global Ev Power Co Ltd Secures £288.9k Seed Funding for ZOLB EV Charging Platform
Published
London based Global Ev Power Co Ltd, operating under the brand name ZOLB EV, has successfully raised £288.9k in a seed funding round. The transaction brings the startup to an estimated post money valuation of £3.8m. The allotment date for the round was recorded on January 12, 2026, with the official filing completed today, March 26, 2026.
Incorporated on June 19, 2023, Global Ev Power Co Ltd focuses on the digital infrastructure required to support the transition to electric mobility. The company develops software and provides electric vehicle charging solutions, primarily through a mobile application that enables smart charging and integrated payments. Rather than focusing solely on consumer facing hardware, ZOLB EV targets businesses, fleet operators, and public networks such as hotels and retail parks. By providing the underlying software, the company solves a growing problem for property owners and commercial fleets who need to manage, monitor, and monetise their electric vehicle infrastructure efficiently.
The company currently operates with a lean team of two employees. As an early stage startup, Global Ev Power Co Ltd has not yet disclosed public revenue or profit and loss figures. The filings for this seed round do not name specific institutional investors, and there are no previously disclosed funding rounds on record for the business. The £288.9k raised will provide the necessary runway to further develop the ZOLB EV software platform and expand its commercial partnerships.
This new injection of capital fits into a rapidly maturing UK electric vehicle sector. As of early 2026, the UK has surpassed 88,000 public charge points, representing a 19 percent year on year increase. London remains the epicentre of this rollout, holding nearly 40 percent of the regional market share and hosting over 24,000 chargers.
While the broader UK funding landscape has recently seen massive equity rounds for hardware and infrastructure providers, such as GRIDSERVE securing £100m and Connected Kerb raising £65m in late 2025, there is an increasing need for the software layer that connects drivers to these physical assets. Property owners and local authorities are rapidly installing chargers but often lack the proprietary software to handle smart grid management and seamless user payments.
Smart charging capabilities are becoming essential for businesses to avoid overloading local grid connections during peak hours. Furthermore, as the UK government pushes towards its Zero Emission Vehicle mandate, commercial fleets are electrifying at a rapid pace. Corporate fleets require robust backend software to track energy usage, manage driver expenses, and schedule charging times. ZOLB EV is positioning itself to capture this specific B2B software niche, providing the digital tools necessary to make electric vehicle charging accessible and commercially viable for site operators.
