Nomos Energy, a Berlin-based startup, has secured investment from Tesonet to build infrastructure connecting home energy assets to Europe's electricity markets. The company enables hardware and consumer brands to launch energy products without building a utility from scratch. Nomos's platform already powers dynamic electricity products for major brands, including IKEA Germany's first dynamic tariff. The system helps households optimise electricity usage by buying when prices are low, storing energy, and selling back to the grid when more valuable. With a team of eight, Nomos is automating complex aspects of the energy system to prepare for increased adoption of solar panels, batteries, and electric vehicles. The company aims to become the infrastructure layer connecting homes, energy hardware, brands, and markets across Europe's increasingly distributed energy network.

Berlin-based Nomos raised €20 million in a Series A round led by Index Ventures, with participation from Bolt CEO Markus Villig and UiPath founder Daniel Dines. The company, founded in 2023 by Stefan Gerbes and Nils Bitzer, enables heat pump and solar installers to become licensed electricity retailers under their own brands. Nomos connects home batteries, electric vehicles, and heat pumps to Germany's wholesale electricity market, handling procurement, metering, and billing behind the scenes. Partners include thermondo, Energiekonzepte Deutschland, and IKEA's Svea Solar-powered service. The funding, which brings total capital to approximately €22 million including a €1.9 million pre-seed round from Speedinvest, will support product development and European expansion. The company aims to address Europe's high energy costs, which are double those in the US and China.
