The funding round also included participation from existing investors <keyword id="3537918" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="stellaris-venture-partners" source="Orion">Stellaris Venture Partners</keyword> and Avaana Capital, besides new investors Alteria Capital and InnoVen Capital. Turno plans to use the funding to build a proprietary battery-tech platform to address issues around end-of-life battery value, amid global concerns around EV batteries and e-waste. “Commercial EV sales are heavily dependent on the availability of attractive financing options and today the Indian market is plagued by lack of truly customer-centric options. Turno has identified a key missing element in the ecosystem that solves the problem of financing as well as distribution and servicing,” said <a href="https://u6878319.ct.sendgrid.net/ls/click?upn=5IdpUAhVc5GH6tZvUPczHkuKz4P-2Br2CQ1jG79p-2Fzha2qbSjBrzzbIvHzowDNnU4o926mZjaSHqBTRoHrPiSv99jO04fWtrZE8cXRzHjftB8-3DV3n5_A7ag8iXlge7kLfqu-2FN2h5Wp9t2bI4RW0bH-2BBxZq5qUupibr9bH3GrgdLbZROxl9ZRk2GBrD-2BNALlK5sb9oZJw7DVAGz6-2FeiblBG-2FD0XacSVKRZ5mY9oOldeYWDbIlX0vr-2BlGFXFfrIDURmxLg3GRsnEdv4rq7VuJKd0UNExYCdObBpIfzXX6cpTeicoBWxoj4nB5ZjYnXv0w64yXyQ8W-2FlwN72Wg1SdudIiI523BeQPo96nvksSmmVemPl6yW1-2Fn">Karan Mohla</a>, General <keyword id="6399933" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="partner" source="Orion">Partner</keyword>, B Capital and head of early stage investments in India &amp; SEA. As EV adoption has accelerated globally, so too have concerns about the end-of-life value of EV batteries and the potential e-waste created by them. Turno says it has identified a massive untapped opportunity to create a proprietary battery technology platform to repurpose EV batteries into large-scale second-life energy storage systems – significantly enhancing the life-cycle value of batteries and prolonging their usable life. This new technology will also further lower EV ownership costs, thereby making EVs more affordable, it adds.
