Granular Energy raises funds to launch world’s first market for hourly energy certificates
€2 million pre-seed funding from Seedcamp, Revent and Powerhouse Ventures
We are glad to announce we have raised €2 million pre-seed funding with investments from Seedcamp, Revent and Powerhouse Ventures.
The funds will allow us to deliver on our mission of creating 24/7 clean energy market solutions. The platform we are developing will help accelerate the shift to a carbon-free grid by harnessing consumer demand to send a razor-sharp price signal that values clean energy according to physical availability.
Henrik Grosse Rokamp, from Revent, shared his thoughts: “Granular Energy’s solution is a paradigm change for the energy market. It will be finally possible for utilities, corporates, and consumers to buy true 100% carbon-free electricity. This is a crucial step and a missing piece to move our society away from carbon emitting energy production and towards addressing climate change in a meaningful way.”
We will use the funds to grow our team, roll out our platform in the UK, and launch in three new EU markets and the US.

Carbon-Free Chronicles April 2026: The essential round-up of news and reports relating to hourly transparency
April brought the debate on clean energy procurement off the page and into the room. On 24 April, we co-hosted Next-gen Electricity Procurement with CMS in London, bringing together energy buyers, suppliers, and market participants for a morning of panels on Scope 2 reform, next-gen portfolio management, and the future of licence-exempt supply in the UK. The conversations were sharp, and the appetite for clarity on where the market is heading was clear. Beyond the event, April saw the emissions accounting debate intensify, new research quantifying just how much program design matters in carbon-free energy (CFE) procurement, the European Commission signalling its direction on time-based guarantees of origin (GO), and the UK's AI data centre energy planning revealing some uncomfortable contradictions. Here is what has been on our radar.
