Wallbox and Ensol Expand Partnership to Deliver Fast Charging Infrastructure in Texas, Florida, and Georgia
This strategic move builds on the existing relationship between the two companies, which began with ENSOL EV installing Wallbox's Pulsar line of AC chargers at residential and commercial sites. The new phase extends their partnership into DC fast charging for the first time, centered around Wallbox's Supernova charger, now certified under both CTEP and NTEP standards.
ENSOL EV plans to pair the Supernova chargers with on-site renewable energy systems, integrating solar and battery storage to further both companies' shared focus on clean energy and long-term mobility solutions. The initial rollout will target high-traffic urban zones and regional transit corridors, where demand for fast, reliable EV charging continues to grow rapidly.
"This expansion is an exciting next step in our work with Ensol and brings our Supernova fast chargers to high-growth EV markets in the U.S.," said Douglas Alfaro, Chief Business Development Officer at Wallbox. "States like Texas, Florida, and Georgia are seeing accelerating demand for charging infrastructure, and we're proud to support that shift with reliable, certified fast charging solutions."
"Our goal is to build charging infrastructure that not only enables electric mobility but is rooted in sustainability as the core of the entire concept," said Ernesto Figueroa, CEO at ENSOL EV. "Wallbox's Supernova chargers are a perfect fit for our projects, allowing us to integrate renewable energy and smart technologies seamlessly. We're proud to take this next step together."
Initial installations are scheduled to begin in the second half of 2025, with additional sites to follow through early 2026. The Supernova fast charger delivers up to 180 kW of power and includes integrated smart charging features for optimal energy distribution and uptime performance.

Rivian vs. Lucid: 1 Reason Jim Cramer Likes One Stock Over the Other
Key Points Lucid closed a deal with Uber to power its robotaxi division. Wall Street veteran Jim Cramer is doubting the deal's long-term potential. Rivian may be a better buy due to a deal with VW. 10 stocks we like better than Lucid Group › Lucid Group (NASDAQ: LCID) soared in value following the announcement of its partnership with Uber Technologies. According to the deal's terms, Uber will invest $300 million in the electric vehicle (EV) maker. Uber also committed to purchase 20,000 vehicles from Lucid to kick-start its robotaxi division. Wall Street veteran Jim Cramer recently weighted in on the deal, and his take was surprising to many. He compared Lucid's deal with Uber to a partnership Rivian Automotive (NASDAQ: RIVN), another EV stock, made earlier this year. If you're invested in either Lucid or Rivian, you'll want to give Cramer's comments some consideration. How big is the Uber and Lucid partnership in reality? The details of Lucid's partnership with Uber are fairly straightforward. The latter says it is expecting to launch a robotaxi service later next year in a major U.S. city. To power this launch, Uber plans to order 20,000 Lucid Gravity SUVs over the next six years. According to a press release, the vehicles will be owned and operated by Uber or its third-party fleet partners and made available to riders exclusively via the Uber platform. To help Lucid scale up enough to produce this many vehicles, Uber also agreed to invest $300 million into the business. Around the same time, Lucid announced a 1-for-10 reverse stock split, but it's not clear how connected these two events are. While all of this looks promising on paper, there are two obvious problems. First, Uber's robotaxi division remains in its infancy. Whether it can actually grow big enough to acquire 20,000 Lucid vehicles remains a huge open question. Second, $300 million won't do much to keep Lucid financially viable over the next six years. While it ended 2024 with more than $6 billion in liquidity, the company also posted a net loss of $2.7 billion, roughly the same net loss it posted in 2023. A $300 million cash infusion is helpful, but it will hardly cure its ongoing financial challenges. Jim Cramer thinks Rivian's deal with Volkswagen is superior When Jim Cramer was asked about Lucid's partnership with Uber last week, he called the deal a "dalliance." In other words, he views it more as a short-term arrangement than a bona fide long-term partnership. "I think that you need a commitment, like the Volkswagen commitment to Rivian is extraordinary," Cramer said. "That's an open-ended check from one of the biggest car companies." He is referring to a joint venture between Volkswagen and Rivian that was announced in November 2024. The German automaker will receive crucial access to Rivian's software operating platform and technological back end. In exchange, Rivian receives up to $5.8 billion in funding. It's not hard to see the difference in commitments here. Uber is investing just $300 million into Lucid, with the promise of buying vehicles over the next six years. Rivian, meanwhile, is receiving up to $5.8 billion in funding by the end of 2027, starting with an immediate $1 billion convertible note. To be clear, Lucid's deal with Uber is still very exciting. ARK Investment CEO Cathie Wood eventually sees the robotaxi market being worth up to $10 trillion by 2030. But Rivian's deal with Volkswagen gives more credence to Rivian's tech stack and differentiation. If you're excited about the Uber-Lucid tie-up, be sure to dive into Rivian's and Volkswagen's partnership, as Cramer correctly points out. Should you invest $1,000 in Lucid Group right now?

A More Affordable EV Won't Save Tesla
Key Points Tesla fell 5% after hours on its second-quarter earnings report. Some investors saw production of a new, more affordable vehicle as a positive sign. The company launched its robotaxi network in June. These 10 stocks could mint the next wave of millionaires › Tesla (NASDAQ: TSLA) issued another disappointing earnings report on Tuesday. Switch Auto Insurance and Save Today! Affordable Auto Insurance, Customized for You The Insurance Savings You Expect Great Rates and Award-Winning Service The leading electric vehicle (EV) maker finished the after-hours session down 5%, but the sell-off could have been worse. The company reported a decline in both sales and profit. Revenue was down 12% to $22.5 billion, and adjusted net income was down 23% to $1.39 billion, or $0.40 per share. Those numbers actually topped a muted revenue estimate at $22.13 billion, while the bottom-line consensus matched the results at $0.40. Tesla's problems have been well-documented at this point. CEO Elon Musk's turn in the political spotlight seemed to backfire after his relationship with President Donald Trump went sour. Due in part to Musk's involvement with politics, the brand has become unappealing in the eyes of some potential buyers, leading to a 16% decline in automotive revenue. Sales have plunged in Europe, and the company is losing ground to more affordable Chinese EVs. One seemingly bright spot Musk has a long history of overcoming weak results by telling investors what they want to hear on the earnings call, including making big promises about its robotaxi network and other initiatives in autonomy like its Optimus robot. He seemed to do that again on the latest earnings call, with some comments about the more affordable model he has long promised, which some have dubbed the Tesla Model 2. Musk said that the company started production of the vehicle in June and is ramping up production now. He added: "The goal with those products was not to negatively impact revenue or gross margin, but just to make a car that everyone loves and wants at a more affordable price." Musk has long argued that price competition was one of the biggest headwinds facing the company, but the brand crisis seems to have overshadowed that. By introducing its own lower-priced model, Tesla may end up cannibalizing its more expensive vehicles. Customers may be choosing between a more expensive Tesla and that lower-priced model, rather than another brand. The new vehicle is just a cheaper Model Y, rather than a brand-new vehicle model. The robotaxi initiative The biggest reason Tesla has maintained its premium valuation even as sales and profits have tumbled is that investors believe that Tesla's robotaxi network could go mainstream, fulfilling Musk's long-term vision. However, the robotaxi has gotten off to only a modest start after launching in June, and it seemed to get less attention on Tuesday's earnings call, though Musk reminded the audience: "As you can tell, autonomy is the story." Management said that robotaxis in Austin, Texas have topped 7,000 miles with no significant safety interventions. The company is aiming to launch the robotaxi in the San Francisco Bay Area next. Tesla needs growth in its core business Investors have bid up Tesla stock on hopes for its initiatives in robotaxis and more affordable vehicles, but the company needs to return to growth in selling EVs for the stock to be successful over the long term. The decline in EV sales is a reflection of a backlash against Tesla's brand. The company is also expected to struggle over the next few quarters due to the elimination of the EV tax credit and a change in other federal policies that supported EV adoption. The company also faces a $300 million effect from tariffs. Tesla could get back on track, especially if the robotaxi network takes off. But the current valuation in the stock leaves little room for upside if it does, especially given the persistent challenges in EV sales. While a more affordable vehicle might be a step in the right direction, it seems more likely to undercut demand for Tesla's more expensive vehicles, rather than competing with alternatives. Should you buy stock in Tesla right now? The Motley Fool Stock Advisor analyst team just identified what they believe are the for investors to buy now.
