The versatility of Enerbrain's solutions make them suitable for various applications, whether in public schools, public and private offices, factories, shopping centres or airports.

In addition to Edf, also Iren, Equiter, Azimut and Gellify have acquired a minority stake. Part of this capital increase will be used to develop new business models applicable to distribution networks and the creation of energy communities.

Giuseppe Giordano, CEO of Enerbrain commented: "We started with four people thinking of a business plan with a strong vocation towards foreign markets and this choice is certainly at the basis of our ability to attract investment from abroad. We will now open an office in Paris, continuing to develop partnerships with global and regional market players, but we want to remain independent and autonomous. This new investment round will allow us to strengthen the internationalization of our solutions that enable us to achieve the ESG goals of sustainability and digital transformation, further aligning with the requirements of the Green New Deal".
