IGNITING A CHANGE
IN ENERGY TRANSITION

The Carbon Removal & Emissions Management track will draw the companies that are engaged in carbon capture and/or emissions management technologies. From capturing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and storing it deep underground to measuring emissions using AI-powered solutions – this is a go-to track for startups that will accelerate our journey to net-zero.

Applicants in the emissions management track should be technology companies in the carbon emissions ecosystem, creating solutions to measure, report, react, reduce, offset, score, rank, and screen carbon emissions. We expect companies to showcase cutting-edge software and (or) hardware solutions such as carbon accounting, carbon credit marketplace, API and advanced analytics & ratings, and other novel technologies enabling better emissions management and acceleration of the journey to net-zero.

Applicants to the E-mobility section should be building new electric mobility solutions, whether it is in-vehicle information, and communication technologies or connected infrastructure to enable the electric fleet from first to last mile or different business models powered with sharing and gig economy. We expect companies to showcase significant innovation and technological advancement either through software of hardware applications.

Applicants to the Digitalization section should be innovating to enhance the U/I and U/X of the energy market overall. Whether that it is through better experience and engagement for B2C customers, or fully digitalization of B2B trade of energy through digitalized PPA’s, trading platforms and distributed P2P trading models or a new business models and emergence of new fully digital Novo Challenger Utilities. We expect companies to showcase significant innovation and technological advancement either through software of hardware applications.

Applicants to the Automation & AI section should be building new dynamic automation and Artificial intelligence powered solutions in the energy and (or) mobility sector. Be it robotic enabled information acquisition, unlocking latent data, automation of system engineering, or machine enabled optimization of system performance. We expect companies to showcase significant innovation and technological advancement either through software of hardware applications.

Applicants to the Future grids section should be building new ways to enhance existing grid infrastructure, or completely redefine how grids will be perceived in the future, through emergence of a more decentralized approach. Whether it is a better analytics, inspection, optimization and predictive maintenance of current grid, or enabling decentralized grid and ways to balance and manage the current and grid of the future. We expect companies to showcase significant innovation and technological advancement either through software of hardware applications.

Applicants to the Battery section should be innovating to enhance or create new effective ways to store energy in either energy or transportation applications. Be it new type of battery, BMS, AI to manage and optimize aggregate of batteries, new business models for residential or utility scale battery application or recycling of 2nd use batteries. We expect companies to showcase significant innovation and technological advancement either through software of hardware applications.

Applicants to the Hydrogen section should be building new ways to produce and store hydrogen in the most energy and cost effective way. Hydrogen has the potential to not only decarbonize the generation of electricity, but also decarbonize transport and heating, thus we are looking for both technological advancements, new use cases as well as new business models to enable Hydrogen future in a full “green” hydrogen ecosystem. We expect companies to showcase significant innovation and technological advancement either through software of hardware applications.
