What happened
Metris Energy, founded in 2025 by Natasha Jones and William Whatley, has raised a €4.35 million ($5 million) Seed round. The round was led by PT1 Ventures, Octopus Ventures, AENU, and Blackfinch Ventures, with participation from Plug and Play and Love Ventures. This follows a €2.3 million pre-Seed round in January 2024, bringing the company's total funding to €6.53 million ($7.5 million).
The funding will be used to enhance Metria AI, the company's AI interface that automates complex tasks previously performed manually. Metris Energy plans to expand its platform's capabilities into wind and Combined Heat and Power (CHP) systems and extend its reach across Europe, with a particular focus on Germany.
Why it matters
Metris Energy's platform aims to address the fragmentation of data in the renewable energy sector, providing a unified view of asset portfolios. This can help operators make informed decisions and access new revenue streams, such as flexibility and curtailment management.
The company's AI-native approach could significantly reduce the operational costs of managing renewable energy assets at scale. By automating workflows and providing real-time data, Metris Energy could help power producers transition from spreadsheet-based operations to data-driven management.
The expansion into wind and CHP systems and the focus on the German market could position Metris Energy as a key player in the European renewable energy sector. The company's 8x YoY revenue growth and management of over 10,000 solar plants and 500MW of capacity demonstrate its potential for further growth.
