Austin-based Scalvy has raised $13.9 million in an oversubscribed Series A round as it looks to modernise how power is delivered across some of the world’s most demanding systems. The round was led by a strategic investor and Silicon Badia, with additional backing from Azolla Ventures, Climate Capital, Skyriver Ventures, and others.
The funding brings Scalvy’s total capital raised to approximately $17 million. It will be used to advance certification, expand field testing, and support deployments across key sectors. The company also plans to scale its team rapidly to meet growing demand from customers.
Cracks in today’s power infrastructure
As computing systems grow more power-hungry and electrification accelerates across industries, existing power delivery models are beginning to show their limits. Traditional systems rely heavily on centralised architectures that are bulky and difficult to scale.
These setups often struggle with inefficiencies, rising costs, and physical constraints. They also introduce reliability concerns and supply chain challenges, particularly as demand for high-performance infrastructure continues to surge. The result is a widening gap between the power modern systems require and what conventional infrastructure can efficiently provide.
A distributed approach to scaling power
Scalvy was founded in 2022 by Mohamed Badawy and Amr Ibrahem in Austin, Texas. The company is approaching the problem from a different angle. Its patented Power Neuron platform distributes power conversion and control across compact modules rather than relying on a single central system.
Each module integrates energy storage and operates as part of a coordinated network. By placing these units directly at the point where power is needed, the system can scale more efficiently while reducing physical footprint.
This modular approach allows for megawatt-scale power delivery without forcing customers to redesign their existing systems. It also improves reliability and enables systems to interact more dynamically with the grid.
Targeting sectors where power is the bottleneck
The company is initially focusing on three areas where power constraints are most visible. The first is AI data centres, where increasing compute intensity is driving the need for higher-density power solutions. Scalvy’s system enables large-scale power delivery while maintaining compute efficiency.
The second is energy storage. Here, the platform improves system resilience and enhances economic performance at both rack and pack levels. It also strengthens grid-forming capabilities, an increasingly important factor as renewable energy adoption grows.
The third focus is electric mobility. Scalvy’s technology supports more compact powertrains by integrating battery functionality directly into the system, resulting in higher power output and extended lifespan.
From validation to deployment
Scalvy has already validated its technology under real-world conditions. The company reports successful technical testing with several blue-chip customers spanning mobility and energy infrastructure sectors.
The company is positioning itself at the centre of a growing shift in how power systems are designed and deployed. By reducing complexity, improving efficiency, and enabling scalability, the company aims to provide the backbone for next-generation infrastructure.
“The AI infrastructure and electric mobility industries are currently trapped: if you want higher power, you are forced to sacrifice space, increase costs, and lose usable capacity,” said Mohamed Badawy, Co-Founder and CEO of Scalvy. “Scalvy is changing this, as the only company enabling systems to scale to massive power levels without those traditional penalties, and crucially, without requiring customers to drastically re-architect their systems. We provide the building blocks for a high-power future that is both scalable and sustainable.”
“Every conversation in tech right now is about AI compute—the chips, the models, the data centres being built at a staggering pace. What’s getting far less attention is the power infrastructure that has to feed all of it,” said Namek Zu’bi, Managing Partner at Silicon Badia. “And it’s not just data centres—this bottleneck shows up across industries, well beyond AI. Scalvy is tackling this at the architectural level, not patching around it, which is why we’re proud to back them.”
“Power electronics literally powers our world, but innovation in the category has been painfully slow,” said Matthew Nordan, General Partner at Azolla Ventures. “Scalvy’s unique architecture changes the game with minimal tradeoffs: It’s just better, cheaper, and more flexible. Eventually, most things in the world that draw electricity will be powered this way.”
