Berlin\/London \u2014 Berlin-based energy and tech scale-up metiundo has secu\u00adred a \u20ac40 million finan\u00adcing round from funds raised by Octo\u00adpus Energy Gene\u00adra\u00adtion, the leading inves\u00adtor in rene\u00adwa\u00adble energy and green infra\u00adstruc\u00adture. With the fresh capi\u00adtal, metiundo intends to signi\u00adfi\u00adcantly acce\u00adle\u00adrate the roll\u00adout of smart meter\u00ading systems and further deve\u00adlop its soft\u00adware plat\u00adform in a targe\u00adted manner. <\/p>\n
This will enable new, data-driven solu\u00adti\u00adons to be imple\u00admen\u00adted more quickly \u2014 and measur\u00ada\u00adbly advance the energy tran\u00adsi\u00adtion in the buil\u00adding sector. metiundo offers \u201cSmart Meter\u00ading as a Service\u201d and covers almost the entire value chain of smart meter\u00ading systems in-house: from plan\u00adning and instal\u00adla\u00adtion, opera\u00adtion and market commu\u00adni\u00adca\u00adtion to the soft\u00adware inte\u00adgra\u00adtion and proces\u00adsing of cross-sector meter\u00ading data. For the first time, this crea\u00adtes an over\u00adall picture of a proper\u00adty\u2019s energy and water consump\u00adtion and thus a key prere\u00adqui\u00adsite for combi\u00adning consump\u00adtion and gene\u00adra\u00adtion in a meaningful way instead of looking at indi\u00advi\u00addual sectors in isolation. <\/p>\n
More instal\u00adla\u00adti\u00adons, more soft\u00adware, more speed \u201cThe market is so dyna\u00admic precis\u00adely because compe\u00adti\u00adtive meter\u00ading point opera\u00adtors are driving imple\u00admen\u00adta\u00adtion forward. From the very begin\u00adning, we have consis\u00adt\u00adently inves\u00adted in our own soft\u00adware and thus achie\u00adved a level of quality and flexi\u00adbi\u00adlity that sets us apart from the compe\u00adti\u00adtion. With the new finan\u00adcing, we are now deter\u00admi\u00adned to conti\u00adnue scaling: more instal\u00adla\u00adti\u00adons, higher quality and even more speed in expan\u00adding our plat\u00adform,\u201d says Dennis Nasrun, Co-Foun\u00adder and CEO of metiundo.<\/p>\n An all-in-one plat\u00adform for inte\u00adgra\u00adted meter\u00ading across energy and water \u201cThe buil\u00adding and heating sector is one of the biggest CO\u2082 emit\u00adters in Germany and is respon\u00adsi\u00adble for around 30% of energy-rela\u00adted emis\u00adsi\u00adons. At the same time, the meter\u00ading indus\u00adtry is deve\u00adlo\u00adping rapidly and rethin\u00adking how we measure, control and connect energy systems. When solu\u00adti\u00adons like metiundo\u2019s are scaled, house\u00adholds and busi\u00adnesses in Germany can become gree\u00adner and reduce costs by opti\u00admi\u00adzing the use of tech\u00adno\u00adlo\u00adgies such as photo\u00advol\u00adtaics and on-site battery storage. We are proud to support metiundo in driving this much-needed trans\u00adfor\u00adma\u00adtion,\u201d Alex Brier\u00adley, Co-Head of Octo\u00adpus Energy Gene\u00adra\u00adti\u00adon\u2019s fund manage\u00adment business.<\/p>\n The funding will go towards the further deve\u00adlo\u00adp\u00adment of the soft\u00adware plat\u00adform and the expan\u00adsion of the instal\u00adla\u00adtion and assem\u00adbly team. metiundo plans to hire addi\u00adtio\u00adnal specia\u00adlists in a targe\u00adted manner \u2014 parti\u00adcu\u00adlarly in the areas of soft\u00adware deve\u00adlo\u00adp\u00adment, instal\u00adla\u00adtion and opera\u00adtion. The aim is to set up inte\u00adgra\u00adted smart meter networks across seve\u00adral proper\u00adties in order to enable addi\u00adtio\u00adnal data-based solu\u00adti\u00adons for customers. <\/p>\n About metiundo About Octo\u00adpus Energy Generation metiundo Berlin\/London \u2014 Berlin-based energy and tech scale-up metiundo has secu\u00adred a \u20ac40 million finan\u00adcing round from funds raised by Octo\u00adpus Energy Gene\u00adra\u00adtion, the leading inves\u00adtor in rene\u00adwa\u00adble energy and green infra\u00adstruc\u00adture.

\n In view of the high pres\u00adsure to imple\u00adment the nati\u00adon\u00adwide smart meter roll\u00adout, smart meter\u00ading systems must be rolled out quickly. Compe\u00adti\u00adtive meter\u00ading point opera\u00adtors are a key lever for spee\u00adding up the rollout. <\/p>\n
