850+ energy startups from 86 countries applied for being part of the Free Electrons program – 36 were accepted. And Zaphiro is one of them!
During the Free Electrons program, startups will work alongside ten major utilities from around the globe (namely American Electrical Power, AusNet, CLP, Dubai Electricity and Water Authority, EDP, ESB, Innogy, Origin, SP Group and TEPCO) to deliver cutting edge solutions and co-create the future of energy. The program will focus on working together to pilot projects, commercially deploy products and facilitate investment opportunities. Four four-day modules are planned to achieve the desired results.
“We are absolutely thrilled being selected among more than 800 energy startups worldwide. This recognition will boost us to work even harder to help Distribution System Operators making their grids smarter.” says Ulrich Münch, VP Sales & Marketing of Zaphiro Technologies SA. “Being part of the Free Electrons program will help us to showcase our smart grid solution on an even more international basis, get valuable feedback to our solutions and hopefully also get deals done.”
