TiLT Capital commits to the decarbonization of mobile and off-grid energy by investing €15M in the specialized Spanish company Nomad Solar Energy. The Spanish company Nomad Solar Energy (NSE), specializing in the manufacturing and commercialization of mobile and off-grid solar generators, has received an investment of €15 million from TiLT Capital Partners, the French energy transition platform of the Siparex Group.

This funding will enable the company to strengthen its R&D efforts and accelerate its commercial development, marking a key milestone in its ambition to become a leading international player in the energy transition sector.

Founded in Madrid by Laurent de Thieulloy, NSE aims at providing a solution to a power generation market that stands in need of innovative technologies and low-carbon energy options. Its flagship product, the Nomad Energy Box, offers a fast-to-deploy photovoltaic energy solution adaptable to any environment. The system is based on a shipping container housing a structure with solar panels that deliver 42 kWc for the 10-foot version and 106 kWc for the 20-foot version. Thanks to its innovative "Plug & Play" design, the structure can be deployed and folded in less than 3 hours without any prior land preparation, permits, or specialized on-site labor.

These custom-made and CSC-certified containers are easily transportable by sea or land, allowing their installation in remote areas or locations requiring off-grid electricity, such as islands, humanitarian centers, construction sites, camps, or mining sites. The Nomad Energy Boxes can also supplement an existing but unstable grid, and address temporary energy needs. Moreover, they can be interconnected to increase electricity production capacity.

This mobile solution presents a clean energy alternative to traditional diesel generators and helps reduce their operating time, contributing to lowering CO2 emissions, as well as nitrogen oxides (NOx) and sulfur oxides (SOx), which contribute to local air quality degradation. With this approach, Nomad Solar Energy encourages businesses to engage in the energy transition and meet their ESG objectives.

Supporting Nomad Solar Energy aligns directly with TiLT Capital Partners' strategic goals: investing in European companies actively participating in the energy transition, supporting solutions that enhance the energy efficiency of our economy and the flexibility of energy systems, and accompanying their growth.

According to Nathanaël Krivine, Co-founder and Managing Partner at TiLT Capital Partners: "By participating in Nomad's capital increase, TiLT is delighted to support an experienced entrepreneur like Laurent de Thieulloy and to provide the team with the means to deploy its mobile solar container solutions. This investment is driven by TiLT's desire to strengthen its presence in the solar energy ecosystem, and reflects a strong belief that decarbonizing decentralized energy is an important yet insufficiently addressed challenge."

For Laurent de Thieulloy, President of Nomad Solar Energy: "TiLT Capital supports Nomad Solar Energy's expansion efforts, not only by providing the capital necessary for our development and research but also with their undeniable expertise in the renewable energy sector. Aware that water and energy are the two keys to our planet's future and for future generations, we will strive together to contribute to their preservation by creating innovative, environmentally friendly products that promote better energy distribution and help reduce poverty among the most deprived populations."
