Free Electrons nominated GreenCom Networks as one of 12 participants in their program. The Free Electron program is set up by leading international utilities that combine a customer base of 73 million end customers.
The utilities selected the most innovative startups out of 450 companies across the globe to work closely together on the topics for the future of energy. Joint deep-dive sessions into challenges, technology and implementations will be held in Silicon Valley, Portugal, Ireland and Singapore over the next six months.

The diversity of this year’s cohort of 12 is apparent not just in the sectors represented but geographic location as well: four startups are from the United States, two from Israel, and one each from Germany, Ireland, Portugal, Switzerland, India and United Kingdom.
