$crge Charge Enterprises Is Designated GenZ EV’s Preferred Infrastructure Provider for Custom EV Charging Ecosystems, Offering a Seamless End-to-End Solution for Battery Buffered Ultra-Fast EV Charging

NEW YORK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / March 2, 2022 / Charge Enterprises Inc. (OTC PINK:CRGE), ("Charge"), consisting of a portfolio of global businesses with the vision of connecting people everywhere with communications and electric-vehicle "EV" charging, and GenZ EV LLC ("GenZ EV"), an American company dedicated to integrating the world's best technologies, services and investment solutions to help businesses navigate the transition into the era of eMobility, announced that they have designated Charge as GenZ EV's preferred infrastructure provider for EV charging solutions to provide a bespoke and seamless end-to-end EV Infrastructure for commercial, fleet, public and private sector industries, delivering battery buffered ultra-fast charging for EVs.

GenZ EV, distributor of ADS-TEC Energy (ADSE) ("ADS-TEC¨) battery-buffered ultra-fast chargers for the automotive vertical in the Americas, designated Charge as its preferred infrastructure solutions provider. Charge, through one of its operating affiliates, doing business as (DBA), Charge Infrastructure, offers end-to-end services for EV charging ecosystems, including project management, design and engineering, construction, installation, and maintenance and service. GenZ EV and Charge intends to target dealerships, dealer groups, commercial fleet, and automotive OEM's as well as retail, big-box chains, real estate conglomerates and the public sector. Leveraging their collective automotive expertise, the initiative led by both Charge's President, Mark LaNeve, along with GenZ EVs CEO Jose Valls, the two companies collectively have a leadership team comprising over 100 years of experience in OEM and dealer operations.

Charge Infrastructure's preferred designation is pursuant to a non-binding Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between GenZ EV and Charge, offering custom solutions for ultra-fast charging requirements with the goal of generating cost efficiencies to support EV charging infrastructure and maximize energy flexibility. "As GenZ EV's preferred infrastructure provider, together, we provide a seamless solution for equipment and services to reduce the cost of charging from the utility provider while allowing greater EV charging flexibility, including rapid charging speeds, especially for dealerships and fleet operators," said Mark LaNeve, "Furthermore, when factoring in solar or renewable generation and layering bidirectional capabilities, the cost of running EVs, and the client's carbon footprint, could be reduced further by combining these assets into a site-wide ecosystem.

"While the demand for ultra-fast EV charging spans across all industries and sectors of society, the auto industry - specifically dealers - are at the vanguard of the transition into eMobility. I look forward to working with Charge to address the unique needs of this and other markets," said José Valls, GenZ EV's CEO, formerly Chairman of Nissan North America and of Nissan Latin America. He further stated, "Our team understands that a successful project entails more than world-class hardware, so we are focused on offering a complete 360-solution for businesses navigating the electrification landscape." Mark LaNeve added, "There is great opportunity in software, servicing, and long-term revenue-driving opportunities to consider as well. We are excited to partner with GenZ EV to design high-impact, smart, investment opportunities for EV Charging solutions."

$CRGE GenZ EV Solutions Enters the U.S. EV Battery-buffered, Ultra-fast Charger Market

- Names as CEO former chairman of Nissan North America, José Valls
- Company appointed distributor of ADS-TEC Energy´s battery-buffered, ultra-fast chargers, for the massive automotive market throughout the Americas
- Forges alliance with Charge Enterprises, designated preferred infrastructure solutions provider
- Partners with Mitsubishi Capital to offer up to 100 percent financing

MIAMI, Feb. 28, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- GenZ EV Solutions ("GenZ"), announced that it has entered the U.S. market with a cutting-edge, battery-buffered, ultra-fast EV charger and a suite of premium services for businesses transitioning into eMobility. The company is focused on integrating the world's best technologies, services and investment solutions to help businesses navigate the transition into the era of electrified transport. By 2030, approximately 50 percent of vehicles sold in the U.S. are targeted to be EVs; demand for fast-charging stations is expected to increase exponentially.

The company named as CEO, José Valls, former Chairman of Nissan North America and of Nissan Latin America.

GenZ EV Solutions and Germany´s ADS-TEC Energy (NASDAQ: ADSE) ("ADS-TEC"), a global leader in battery-buffered, ultra-fast charging technology, signed an agreement appointing GenZ as its distributor for the massive automotive vertical throughout the Americas. In 2021, ADS-TEC Energy was recognized as a top innovator by The German Association for Consumer Studies (DtGV), based on the company's extensive portfolio of patents associated with advancing climate change protection. ADS-TEC Energy´s battery-buffered technology enables widespread, ultra-fast charging (up to 320kW) on existing power-limited grids without additional infrastructure.

The GenZ system, along with its technical specifications, will be presented during the National Automobile Dealers Association (NADA) convention in Las Vegas taking place March 11-13, 2022. Auto dealers, estimated at 18,000 facilities in the U.S., are at the forefront of the EV charger infrastructure overhaul taking place in the U.S, considering the proliferation of EVs at showrooms.

GenZ EV Solutions designated Charge Enterprises (OTC PINK: CRGE), ("Charge"), through one of its operating affiliates, Charge Infrastructure, as its preferred infrastructure provider. Charge will offer end-to-end services for EV charging ecosystems, including project management, design and engineering, construction, installation, and maintenance and service. GenZ and Charge will service dealerships, dealer groups, commercial fleet, and automotive OEM's as well as retail, big-box chains, real estate conglomerates and the public sector. Mark LaNeve is president of Charge and, as former vice president of sales and marketing for both Ford Motor Company and General Motors, brings vast automotive OEM leadership experience. The Charge and GenZ leadership teams collectively boast more than two centuries of automotive experience and will target the most demanding, EV-intensive industries.

"While the demand for ultra-fast EV charging spans across all industries and sectors of society, the auto industry — specifically dealers — are at the vanguard of our transition into eMobility. I look forward to working with the Charge team to deliver world-class solutions to this pioneering industry and across many more," said José Valls. He added, "It will also be exciting to collaborate with ADS-TEC in delivering such impactful innovation to markets across the Americas."

"GenZ EV Solutions understands that a successful project entails more than cutting-edge hardware. There's great opportunity in intelligent installation, servicing and long-term revenue-driving opportunities to consider as well. We are excited to partner with GenZ in designing high-impact, smart investment opportunities for auto dealers and beyond," said Mark LaNeve, president of Charge Enterprises.

"We are pleased to partner with GenZ EV Solutions in the Americas. Our commitment to technical innovation, coupled with our partner ´s deep experience in the fast-evolving auto industry is a powerful combination," said Thomas Speidel, CEO and founder, ADS-TEC Energy. He added, "We look forward to collaborating with GenZ in the great expansion of the American charging infrastructure."

Among challenges faced when companies enter charging station projects are up-front costs and significant capital investments. GenZ EV Solutions offers unique operating and financing models, including up to 100 percent financing for qualified clients via preferred partner Mitsubishi Capital.

GenZ EV Solutions co-founder and environmental philanthropist Cristian Stenstrom said, "GenZ EV Solutions was inspired by the generation that triggered the inflection point for mass-adoption of EVs. They influence current GenX and Boomer purchase patterns and are teaching us that capital invested without a higher purpose is wasteful." Stenstrom added, "Our team shares that vision and, beyond helping businesses navigate electrification, three percent of profits will be invested into reforestation efforts in the U.S. More on that later this year."

GenZ EV Solutions co-founder John Candillier commented, "By 2030, about 50 percent of vehicles in the U.S. are targeted to be EVs. This milestone reflects the massive size of the opportunity for everyone in the eMobility ecosystem. And while ´green´ capital from the public sector and corporations is significant, it's the small to mid-size companies, like auto dealers, who will build the backbone of America´s EV charging infrastructure deep into local communities."

$CRGE Charge Enterprises Signs Definitive Agreement to Acquire BW Electrical Services LLC to Expand Its Infrastructure Division

NEW YORK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / December 23, 2021 / Charge Enterprises Inc. (OTC PINK:CRGE), ("Charge"), consisting of a portfolio of global businesses with the vision of connecting people everywhere with communications and electric-vehicle charging ("EV") infrastructure, today announced that it has signed a definitive agreement to acquire BW Electrical Services LLC ("BWES"), an electrical contracting services firm specializing in commercial projects with a focus on ground-up construction.

The acquisition agreement provides that Charge will acquire all of the equity intersts in BWES for $18 million of cash and Charge common stock.

Founded in 2006, BWES is an industry leader in the state of New Jersey for design-build, electrical installations. BWES has captured a niche market, providing electrical contracting and telecommunications services to the New Jersey commercial and industrial construction market to support communities and deliver ground-up construction projects. Due to their reputable process-driven expertise in electrical installations, BWES has been entrusted with high-profile projects such as the New Jersey State House restoration, and esteemed academic institutions including Rutgers University, and the New Jersey K-12 school system.

This acquisition is expected to broaden Charge's infrastructure offering by utilizing BWES's master electricians, its proven standardized processes and its established commercial expertise in EV charging infrastructure. The combination exemplifies Charge's strategy to make EV charging more accessible to a wider population, thereby reducing perceived range anxiety as passenger transportation moves towards reducing harmful carbon emissions.

"This is an exciting time for Charge Enterprises. The BWES's acquisition adds scale to Charge's EV charging infrastructure deployment by boosting our number of qualified master electricians and adding greater value, expertise and greater bandwidth to serve our growing client portfolio," said Andrew Fox, Chairman and CEO of Charge.

"There isn't a project in our future that has provisions for new parking that doesn't have an EV charging ecosystem integrated in forward planning, and joining with Charge will help satisfy this pent-up demand for EV charging infrastructure as the country moves into the next phase of the EV revolution."

The anticipated close of the acquisition is on or about December 27, 2021.

$CRGE Exec Mark LaNeve Skips Retirement To Lead Charge

When longtime auto executive Mark LaNeve left Ford Motor Co. last January to pursue the next chapter in his career, maybe even retire, he didn't have long to think about that next move—about a week, he joked.

That's because Andrew Fox, founder, chairman and CEO of startup Charge Enterprises doggedly pursued him to join his fast-growing enterprise. “I was like a chihuahua on his ankles when we first started talking,” Fox told Forbes.com.

The company is focused on accelerating adoption of electric vehicles by building charging, telecommunications and 5G infrastructures mainly by acquiring and partnering with businesses in those fields.

The match was made by Rick Wagoner, the former General Motors Co. chairman who recommended LaNeve when Fox said he was looking for “the smartest, hungriest, hardest working guy you know to help me build this. He said I don't know if he's hungry, but I know the smartest, hardest working guy.”



LaNeve indeed had the attributes and the appetite and joined New York City-based Charge earlier this year in what he described as “almost advising” working mainly in customer acquisition and with dealers to help them transform their businesses to service electric vehicles. He was elevated to President in November.

What appealed to him was “the idea of being involved in an industry and a company that's going to help build the infrastructure of the future with all that momentum behind it,” LaNeve said in an interview. “To be part of that and helping to build a company after working for huge enterprises, Ford, GM and Allstate that seemed really exciting and interesting and irresistible to me.”

The division of responsibilities between Fox and LaNeve is clear. Fox handles what he describes the “Wall Street side of the business,” and sets the company's vision. “We've raised just under $6 million to build over a $400 million business in equity,” said Fox. “We're tight stewards of capital. We're buying business that have pre-existing books of business.”

Then it's over to LaNeve.

“As Andrew lays out the vision we have acquisitions, really nice businesses we've acquired and looking to acquire that have good books of business mainly in the 5G part,” he explained. “We need to manage them, keep them doing what they're doing, grow them organically, take care of their customers, then at the same time build a centralized EV infrastructure business using some of the assets of those subsidiaries then bringing on talent and expertise where we need it specifically.”

A recent example of how Charge is teaming up with existing businesses is the strategic partnership announced in November with Austin, Texas-based Smart Charge America. The company has installed nearly 10,000 chargers inside 20 cities in the U.S.

Electric vehicle sales are still a slim segment of the market, but Fox and LaNeve are banking on an eventual conversion to battery powered vehicles from internal combustion engines as automakers push their product portfolios in that direction.

In a recent presentation, the company said the number of EVs on U.S. roads is projected to reach 18.7 million in 2030, up from 1.7 million at the end of 2020 and accounting for more than 20% of annual vehicle sales that year.

Fox and LaNeve want Charge to lead the charge in eliminating the so-called range anxiety giving consumers not ready to make the leap to EVs confidence to do so.

Fox uses the example of the anxiety an EV driver would feel if they were stuck in a traffic jam on an interstate and worried they'd run out of power before they could reach a recharging station.

“We think on the highways to prevent someone from having that kind of meltdown you need these things every 10 miles. We think of it as a critical amenity in most places,” he said.

While many EV owners will have so-called level two chargers installed at their homes for mainly overnight charging, Charge is currently focused on much faster, more powerful, level three commercial grade units that would be installed at shopping centers, office parks, parking lots and other public places.

Fox estimates eight-to-10 million level three charging stations would be necessary in the U.S. To meet expected demand. Not to leave any opportunity unexplored Charge is also looking to handle level two chargers as well, according to LaNeve.

But the company's broader vision includes building the 5G telecommunications network for greater connectivity and offering businesses the opportunity to place Charge Powerbank kiosks on their premises for free where customers can rent charging devices to replenish power on their cell phones.

LaNeve calls Powerbank a “great brand extension for us. A good complementary business” for Charge, while Fox declares, “About delivering a critical amenity. Portable power is a critical amenity.”

The long view for Charge is to be the global leader in an end-to-end recharging, telecommunications, micromobility infrastructure.



Neither Fox nor LaNeve is worried the current slow pace of electric vehicle adoption puts their vision for Charge in jeopardy.

“Adoption is always a little slow until familiarity kicks in. The more they experience the vehicles they'll love them, absolutely love them,” noted LaNeve. “In the end won't have a choice because the OEMs (automakers) are all committing to convert anyway.”

A month into his tenure as president of Charge Enterprises, that thought of retirement has all but evaporated for Mark LaNeve.

“From a second career standpoint it's been fun. It's been really, really exciting.” Maybe just a little charged up.

A Nasdaq listing would be a key milestone for Charge, making Charge more visible to a broader range of investors, and enhancing its trading liquidity and ability to expand shareholder base.

Market Opportunity - Broad Support for Growth

Charge's unique market opportunity is to develop and deploy infrastructure, making it simple to move and connect people across the globe, installing 5G, building wireless networks and EV charging ecosystems; delivering the infrastructure clients require today to grow with them as scale is required to meet future demands. There are a number of strong drivers of demand in this space with investments being driven from the private, enterprise and public sectors. Most recently, the Biden administration signed the Infrastructure bill into Law on November 15th, which includes key aspects of infrastructure funding that supplement private capital already at work in the following areas which directly touches upon Charge's core competencies of building infrastructure for 5G wireless networks and EV charging installation solutions:

EV Infrastructure - The administration's bill proposes a $7.5 billion investment to build out a national network of EV chargers. This is the first-ever national investment in EV charging infrastructure in the United States and is a critical element to accelerate the adoption of EVs to address the climate crisis and support domestic manufacturing jobs.
Electric Buses - American school buses play a critical role in expanding access to education, but they are also a significant source of pollution. By investing $2.5 billion in electric buses, the bill would expand access to rural communities, helping school districts across the country buy clean, American-made, zero emission buses, and replace the yellow school bus fleet.
High-Speed Internet - Broadband internet is necessary for Americans to do their jobs, to participate equally in school learning, health care, and to stay connected. The bill's $65 billion investment would ensure every American has access to reliable high-speed internet with an historic investment in broadband infrastructure deployment.
Power Infrastructure - The bill's $73 billion investment is the single largest investment in clean energy transmission in American history. It upgrades power infrastructure, including building thousands of miles of new, resilient transmission lines to facilitate the expansion of renewable energy. It would create a new Grid Deployment Authority, invest in research and development for advanced transmission and electricity distribution technologies, and promote smart grid technologies that deliver flexibility and resilience.
As previously discussed, Charge's market opportunity is to build infrastructure that moves and connects people to facilitate the electrification revolution, install 5G, and build intelligent sites. The 5G Infrastructure market is expected to reach $80.5 billion by 2028 (1a) with the EV charging infrastructure market expected to reach $144.97 billion by 2028 (1b) , these combined segments create an addressable market of more than $224 billion.

EVs on U.S. roads are projected to reach 18.7 million in 2030, up from 1.7 million in 2020(2).

Annual sales of EVs are anticipated to exceed 3.5 million in 2030(2), or more than 20% of annual vehicle sales. Moreover, on August 5, 2021, President Biden unveiled an executive order establishing a goal for 50% of all cars to be sold as Battery Electric Vehicle (BEV), Plug-In Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV), or fuel-cell by 2030.
$15 billion in investments are proposed to build a coast-to-coast network of 500,000 charging stations. (3)
In February 2021, the U.S. had only 100,000 charging outlets for electric vehicles, with the majority in California with almost 32,000 outlets. (4)
U.S. EV Charger sales and installations are forecasted to increase from 100,000 outlets in 2021 to 13 million by 2030. (4)
