Year in Review: OWL Services Continues to Invest in Nationwide Growth and Expansion
Nearly $500 Million Invested to Scale Turnkey Petroleum, Compliance, Integrated Solutions and eMobility Infrastructure and Maintenance Services Nationwide
TROY, Mich.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–OWL Services, a premier sales, installation, program management, and service partner to petroleum, industrial, commercial fleet and electrical vehicle charging companies, today announced its year in review highlighted by a significant growth investment the company received from several leading financial and strategic partners.
The proceeds from the investment were used to accelerate the deployment of the company’s turnkey petroleum construction, maintenance, and compliance services and to scale its industry-leading integrated technology solutions and eMobility business.
As a leader in EV charging station project management, installation and maintenance, OWL Services is currently executing on an ever-growing pipeline of eMobility infrastructure and maintenance projects.
The company works with all major electric vehicle OEM’s and is installing electric charging infrastructure across a blue-chip customer base on a national level. Over the next five years, the company is on track to install more than 10,000 Level 3 chargers expanding on its legacy service business to meet the 97% uptime required for new NEVI funding requirements. OWL Services is well situated to capitalize on the $5 billion designated to building a nationwide network of EV charges under the NEVI program.
“The caliber and interest of our investors illustrates our significant progress and capabilities toward expanding our turnkey petroleum and EV charging infrastructure and maintenance services across the country,” says Greg Ergenbright, CEO, OWL Services. “We are equipped to take on the growing demands of electrification safely, efficiently, and sustainably, just as our partner companies have done for decades with petroleum equipment and services.”
OWL Services is supported by an investor group that includes Trive Capital, Sidekick Operators, Monroe Capital, FS Investments, and Bain Capital Credit. Additionally, Goldman Sachs served as the financial advisor in connection with the company’s latest capital raise and Houlihan Lokey served as the placement agent. OWL Services also retained Gibson Dunn to advise on legal matters.
