Wallbox and Ensol Expand Partnership to Deliver Fast Charging Infrastructure in Texas, Florida, and Georgia
BARCELONA, Spain--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Wallbox (NYSE: WBX), a global leader in electric vehicle (EV) charging and energy management solutions, today announced the expansion of its partnership with ENSOL EV, the e-mobility division of Texas-based Ensol Energy Solutions LLC. This next phase of the collaboration includes the deployment of Wallbox's Supernova DC fast chargers across key urban centers and transit corridors locations in Texas, Florida, and Georgia, three states experiencing rapid growth in EV adoption and charging demand. 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.

'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.

Live updates: House set to vote on DOGE-inspired cuts to foreign aid, PBS, NPR
The House is set to vote Thursday on a package of funding cuts inspired by the U.S. DOGE Service that until recently was overseen by Elon Musk. The clawbacks, totaling $9.4 billion, take aim at foreign aid and funding for PBS and NPR, among other things. It could be the first in a series of so-called recession packages. At the White House, President Donald Trump is expected to sign a measure Thursday that blocks California's first-in-the-nation rule banning the sale of new gas-powered cars by 2035. He is also scheduled to sign executive orders and host a congressional picnic. Elon Musk is out of Washington, but House Republicans could make his legacy law. The House is scheduled to vote Thursday on a package of federal funding cuts inspired by the U.S. DOGE Service's slashing of the federal government. Those cuts include an effective elimination of U.S. foreign aid and funding for PBS and NPR. The total cost of the clawbacks is $9.4 billion. President Donald Trump ousted the leadership of the Kennedy Center and installed his own loyalists. He has said he wants to remake its show offerings and renovate its building. And on Wednesday night, he came to hear the people sing. Trump arrived in a box to watch one of his favorite musicals, in the venue that he has long avoided but is now trying to embrace after taking control. Sen. Rand Paul (R-Kentucky) said the Trump administration has excluded him and his family from a congressional picnic at the White House in what he believes to be an act of retribution, politicizing an annual celebration of bipartisanship over Paul's refusal to support the president's signature legislation. HARRISBURG, Pa. — Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro, widely considered a possible Democratic contender for the presidency, vowed Wednesday to protect the right of protesters if President Donald Trump sends troops into Philadelphia as he has done with the National Guard and Marines in Los Angeles, and to work with local law enforcement to keep the city safe.
