Moeve selects nine startups to accelerate its energy transition and that of its customers

• Through its accelerator Moeve Light Up, the energy company has chosen nine deep science-based startups that it considers the most innovative to promote sustainable mobility and green molecules
• The companies will now scale their projects with Moeve’s experts, with the aim of presenting them at the Demo Day that will take place in 2026

Moeve takes another step forward in the consolidation of its international partnership ecosystem in the field of innovation, with the celebration of Moeve Light Up Selection Day. The energy company has selected nine cleantech startups based in deep science technology in order to accelerate both the company’s transformation and the energy transition of its customers.

The following projects have been chosen:

• CicerAI: AI-driven platform for access to advanced legal assistance.
  
• Emissium: advanced technological solutions for monitoring and reducing carbon emissions associated with electricity consumption.
  
• Kanara: state-of-the-art biofuels made from active plant-based ingredients without genetic modification.
  
• Nium: ammonia generation technology through synthesis with nano-catalysts.
  
• Phycobloom: sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) solutions from genetically-modified microalgae..
  
• Sensei: artificial vision technology applied to the service station experience, turning physical stores into autonomous sales spaces.
  
• Visualfy: alert systems for public spaces that improve accessibility for people with hearing loss through AI.
  
• Water Challenge: wastewater valorization technology through adiabatic sonic evaporation and crystallization (ASE&C).
  
• Woza: AI and geospatial technology to assist in sustainable decision making.

These startups will now be accelerated with the help of experts from Moeve, as well as the technological capabilities and innovation spaces of the energy company. This development will be carried out with a view to presenting the results at the Demo Day, which is expected to take place in 2026. After this new event, the projects with the greatest potential, in line with Moeve’s Positive Motion strategy, will continue to receive financial and structural support from the company to achieve the goal of implementation in their Energy Parks, chemical plants, and service stations.

We are looking forward to collaborating and working together on the development of pilot projects, which will contribute to achieving a sustainable economic and social model for all. We are immersed in a profound energy transition that requires all the innovation and talent possible. We know that we cannot achieve it alone, which is why Moeve Light Up is synonymous with collaboration, and its differential value lies in the search for disruptive solutions to accelerate our transformation, further strengthening Moeve’s commitment to the innovative fabric to advance Europe’s strategic autonomy.”
