What NX Technologies does
NX Technologies, the commercial brand of EPL Engineering S.L., is a San Sebastián, Spain-based designer and supplier of automotive-grade power electronics for electric and hybrid vehicles. Founded in 2020 as a spin-off of EPowerLabs (rebranded formally in April 2024), the company develops electric motor controllers (traction inverters) and Battery Management Systems (BMS) under a unified architecture built on the Infineon Aurix TC3xx microcontroller platform with ISO 26262 ASIL-D functional safety and ISO 21434 cybersecurity. Its POWER inverter family spans 5kW to 350kW across 48V to 800V architectures (P10, O20/O820, W90, E160/E8160, R300), supported by the proprietary DeveLinkSTUDIO calibration software, the VarioSwitch switching strategy, and a primary-secondary multi-inverter configuration for high-power applications. The BMS is chemistry-agnostic (compatible with lithium-ion, sodium-ion, LFP, NMC) and is the first European BMS certified to monitor up to 18 cells in series, with claimed ~30% system cost reduction versus competing solutions.
The company serves a horizontally diversified customer base spanning electric two-wheelers, marine propulsion, commercial vehicles, agriculture and off-road EVs, passenger EVs, motorsports, energy storage, construction, railway, defense, and eVTOL. Distribution is exclusively direct B2B, engineering-led, and project-based, with key strategic OEM and Tier-1 embedding partnerships including Schaeffler (industrialization of the O-Series inverter), Emotors / Stellantis / Nidec (E150-M3 eAxle), and AVL (Hardware-in-the-Loop testbed integration). Notable customer deployments include Lumen Yachts (E10 luxury electric boats, 8 in production and 32 planned), ARC Vehicles, BBM Motorcycles, Aqualines, The Landrovers/Panterra (450 kW four-motor Defender retrofit), KH-7 ECOVERGY (three-time-consecutive Dakar Rally Mission 1000 winner), Beeway, and enterprise logos including TATA, Hyundai, and BSA. Revenue mechanics are predominantly hardware sales of inverters and BMS, with calibration and application engineering services bundled to support integration and recover NRE cost. No public pricing exists; commercial engagement is quote-driven.
The company is ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 certified, holds UN/ECE R10 and R85 type approvals for its eAxle systems, and participates in EU-funded R&D consortia including Spain's PERTE-VEC D-Hub and the EfiSOEC renewable hydrogen project. Geographic footprint spans EMEA, India, and the USA, and the company has raised approximately $6.44M across disclosed funding rounds with industrial and regional capital partners led by Lazpiur.
