Series A to boost exnaton intelligence platform for new energy

The firm’s technology sits at the intersection of digitalization, helping utilities launch smart, data-driven electricity products quickly and efficiently. As the energy sector becomes more decentralized, intermittent, and complex, exnaton enables utilities to turn shifting customer expectations, regulatory challenges, and digitalization into growth opportunities, all without costly IT overhauls. The new funding will be used to accelerate international expansion and further develop AI-driven features within its intelligence platform.
 
Complex data analysis for the energy transition
exnaton’s modular white-label SaaS intelligence platform allows utilities to rapidly create and deploy modern energy products—including dynamic tariffs, energy sharing models, and smart EV charging—while seamlessly integrating with existing ERP systems. By leveraging AI, the platform automates complex processes across billing, energy consumption, and production data analysis, to reduce operational costs, increase efficiency, and improve customer experience and engagement.  
 
Today, over 50 utilities spread across Europe rely on exnaton’s technology to bring flexibility, transparency, and innovation to the new energy system. This includes clients such as TotalEnergies in Belgium, eprimo and Bayernwerk (E.ON brands) in Germany, as well as Burgenland Energie in Austria — together driving the digital transformation of Europe’s energy sector.
 
A partnership built on innovation and impact
Founded by Liliane Ableitner, Arne Meeuw, and Anselma Wörner, exnaton combines cutting-edge research from ETH Zürich, the University of St. Gallen, and TUM with deep industry expertise to empower utilities with digital tools for a cleaner, smarter grid.
By joining forces with 4impact capital and Elevator Ventures, exnaton strengthens its capacity to scale its intelligence platform across Europe.
