Mowea launches crowdinvesting campaign

The spin-off from the Technical University of Berlin equips roofs, bridges and radio masts with small wind turbines. Now Mowea is looking for small investors.

Mowea has launched a crowd-investing round on the Econeers platform. Investors can invest in the wind energy start-up via qualified subordinated loans of at least 250 euros. More than 570,000 euros have already been raised since the campaign was launched. The Küchenberg family of entrepreneurs is currently leading the crowdinvesting - they have previously invested in the start-up.

Mowea started out as a spin-off from the Technical University of Berlin and has developed small wind turbines that can be combined to form a large wind energy system. They can be attached to roofs and bridges, for example, and are therefore suitable for supplying power to radio masts, industrial halls or real estate. Series production of the first 1000 systems is currently underway and they are due to be delivered in September.

The first major customers have already been found: At the beginning of this year, the Vodafone subsidiary Vantage Towers commissioned the Berlin-based company to produce 752 wind turbines. Mowea is also already planning a project with the Austrian infrastructure company Asfinag.
