Kurrant News Desk · ·2 min read

METRON, a French cleantech company specializing in energy efficiency and decarbonization, has raised €12.5M in a funding round led by Germany’s GET Fund. Long-standing investors, including BNP Paribas, Climate Investment, and Vertigo, also participated, reaffirming their confidence in METRON’s mission. The funds will drive METRON’s global expansion, focusing on industrial decarbonization.

METRON specializes in digital energy management solutions aimed at enhancing industrial energy efficiency and reducing carbon emissions. Their core offering, the Energy Management and Optimization System (EMOS), enables companies across various sectors to analyze and optimize their energy consumption in real-time.

Key Features of METRON’s EMOS:

  • Data Integration: EMOS consolidates data from diverse sources, including smart meters, sensors, and existing IT systems, providing a comprehensive view of energy usage.
  • Advanced Analytics: Utilizing data science techniques, EMOS identifies non-intuitive opportunities for energy savings that basic energy management systems might overlook.
  • Real-Time Monitoring: The system offers real-time visualization of energy data, allowing users to monitor consumption patterns and detect anomalies promptly.
  • Predictive Maintenance: By analyzing equipment performance data, EMOS can predict potential failures, enabling proactive maintenance and reducing downtime.
  • Automated Reporting: The platform simplifies compliance with standards like ISO 50001 by automating energy performance monitoring and reporting.

With key clients like Danone, Safran, and Arcelor Mittal, the company plans to deepen partnerships with international players like Fujitsu and Thailand’s PTT. Already active in Asia and the Americas, METRON aims to deploy 15 new sites across the Americas by 2025.
