The Hamburg-based start-up completes its pre-seed financing. EIT Innoenergy is one of the investors.

The Hamburg-based start-up Suena has successfully completed its pre-seed financing round and raised a total of 1.2 million euros in capital. The financing round was led by the innovation fund EIT Innoenergy, with Vireo Ventures and Raakwark Kaptaal also investing. In addition to the financing round, the start-up is also celebrating its inclusion in two funding programs: One is the E-Combinator and the other is the Spinlab Accelerator.

Founded in 2021, the start-up Suena has developed a software platform that claims to simplify electricity trading with the help of artificial intelligence. According to the start-up, this should enable operators to maximize their revenues. According to the company, customers can connect the software to their IT via an interface and use it regardless of which energy storage technology they use.

"We are delighted to have the trust of our investors, who are supporting us in our mission to accelerate the energy transition," says Lennard Wilkening, CEO of Suena. "With the fresh capital, we can accelerate product development and the implementation of pilot projects to meet the urgent need for innovative solutions for the use of energy storage as quickly as possible."
