We're thrilled to announce that Powernaut has raised €2.4 million to accelerate the energy transition away from fossil fuels 🚀 We're proud to support their mission in this funding round, led by Revent with participation from Seedcamp and Pitchdrive | Early-stage VC 🚀. Powernaut's software enables energy suppliers to manage millions of decentralized devices from solar panels to batteries, electric vehicles, and heat pumps that generate and consume power locally. The platform ensures these devices integrate seamlessly with the wider grid, balancing local production with grid demands 🧩 As Florentijn Degroote, co-founder and CEO of Powernaut, says, “To effectively add more renewables and keep costs low for everyone, these smart connected devices should and can be managed more efficiently with tailored software and AI technology” 🔥 Since launching in January 2024, Powernaut has partnered with industry leaders managing over 200MW of decentralized energy assets—equivalent to 80 wind turbines or enough power for 40,000 homes. Serge Morel, co-founder and CTO of Powernaut explains: "Our new decentralized system has the potential to save consumers and businesses across Europe more than €300 billion annually while cutting millions of tons of CO₂ emissions each year." Powernaut is driving a crucial impact where it matters most: enabling the transition from fossil fuels at an affordable cost for households. We have complete trust in Florentijn and Serge, whose shared vision and passion for impactful products will help scale solutions for the ongoing decentralization of the energy sector 🎯 Onwards we go 🚀 #Belgiantech #energytransition #startup #renewables
