About
Granular Energy is a climate technology company dedicated to accelerating the transition to a carbon-free energy grid. The company specializes in developing software solutions that enable utilities, energy traders, and large consumers to manage and trade clean energy with unprecedented transparency. At the core of its offering is a platform designed to support 24/7 carbon-free energy matching, a method that verifies the origin of electricity on an hourly basis rather than an annual one. This approach addresses the limitations of traditional energy certificates by providing a more accurate reflection of real-time energy generation and consumption. The company's proprietary software streamlines the management of Energy Attribute Certificates (EACs), allowing users to track their energy sources down to the specific hour and location. By facilitating the exchange of time-stamped energy certificates, Granular Energy helps create price signals that incentivize investment in energy storage and flexibility, which are crucial for a renewable-powered grid. Headquartered in Paris with a significant presence in London, the company operates with a remote-first culture and serves a growing portfolio of energy providers and corporate buyers across Europe and the United States.
