New funding accelerates deployment of grid-independent EV charging systems

By Michelle Froese | October 30, 2025

Edge Energy, a developer of energy conversion technology for electric vehicle (EV) fast charging, announced a strategic investment from PRETTL Mechatronics & Actuators (PMA), a global company specializing in automotive, electronics, and energy systems.

The funding includes a direct equity investment and working capital to support production scaling and market expansion.

Edge Energy’s EdgeEV Power Source enables ultra-fast dc charging in locations where three-phase power is unavailable or cost-prohibitive to install. The system converts existing single-phase or split-phase service into high-power dc output, eliminating the need for extensive grid upgrades.

This capability allows site operators to deploy chargers more quickly and cost-effectively, accelerating the rollout of public and fleet charging infrastructure in both urban and rural areas.

The collaboration with PMA will enhance Edge Energy’s ability to scale manufacturing and integrate advanced electronics and power conversion components for next-generation charger deployment.

PMA brings decades of experience in intelligent mechatronic systems, including coil winding, encapsulation, and automated assembly across the automotive and energy sectors.

“Partnering with PMA strengthens our capacity to deliver reliable, high-performance charging solutions where infrastructure limitations have slowed EV adoption,” said Shaun Shuler, CEO of Edge Energy.

The investment supports continued innovation in distributed fast-charging systems designed to meet the growing energy demands of electric mobility and expand access to high-speed charging across the US.
