Free Electrons 2019 Final Stop: Lisbon

About to complete its third edition, the program will kick off the Module 3 on September 16, in Lisbon – welcome to all the participants!

Free Electrons is the first global energy startup accelerator program created to connect the world’s most promising energy startups with leading utility companies.

Free Electrons is a unique opportunity to bring global perspectives to local challenges via real, meaningful, face to face interactions.

The Module 3 will be the peak of the interactions that have been developing since the 19 edition has started.

During their days in Lisbon, the 15 startups and 10 utilities will meet to align and define the next steps of their possible commercial agreements, once the program is concluded. They will also deep dive into the work that has been performed over the program between participant startups and the partner utilities, the pilots.

By the end of Module 3, the startup winner is to be announced and awarded with the Free Electrons 19 World’s Best Energy Startup worth 200,000$.

The Shin Akimoto Award, initiated in 2017 in memory of Mr. Shin Akimoto, will also be handled to the candidate that best impersonates the values of this award:

  • is a Free Electrons Ambassador (has got the Free Electrons Spirit and pushes the program to succeed);
  • is proactive and innovative (presents an anticipatory, change-oriented and self-initiated behaviour and embraces change and whether there is continuous improvement and innovation throughout the business);
  • is people driven (always ready to help and collaborate with others, lifts everyone’s spirit up and brings good energy to the group).

As a truly global program, focused on deal facilitation and pilot driven, the program has been addressing and solving real problems, namely generating business, investment and disruption within the energy sector.

In fact 2019 edition has originated a pipeline of 58 pilot projects so far, among the 15 startup finalists and the 10 partner utilities – all utilities have found several innovative solutions that can be adopted and integrated into their businesses.

Setting the grand finale in places like Maat and Academia das Ciências, the Free Electrons welcomes all the participants to Lisbon, and couldn’t be prouder of what the program has been accomplishing.
