Stockholm-based battery-materials startup Holyvolt raised $45 million in an all-equity round from Zone II.
Why it matters: Holyvolt's $45M round and DRX cathode bet show how one startup is pairing a high-throughput lab with AI models to chase battery chemistries outside China's grip.
Hamburg-based Rabot Energy raised $50 million in Series B funding led by Endeit Capital.
Why it matters: Rabot's Series B shows how home batteries are being aggregated into grid-scale virtual power plants, and where smart-meter shortages still constrain the model.
Skeleton Technologies announced a Siemens-led nine-digit investment that lifts its valuation above $1 billion.
Why it matters: Skeleton's Siemens-led round shows how AI data-centre power demand is pulling industrial capital into energy hardware rather than chips alone.
OlsAro raised €5M in seed funding led by Industrifonden, with Nordic Foodtech VC as co-lead.
Why it matters: OlsAro's €5M seed shows how AI trait discovery is being sold to seed companies rather than run as a standalone farm operation.
Helsinki-based Ambio raised a €5.1 million seed round led by b2venture.
Why it matters: Ambio's seed round shows how AI matchmaking is being applied to the demand side of recycled plastics, where weak buyer interest has stalled the market.
Hamburg-based 1KOMMA5° raised €70M from existing and new investors at a $1.35B valuation.
Why it matters: The round shows how a hardware-led energy installer is pitching its Heartbeat AI software to public-market investors, with a US entry and IPO both tied to 2027 results.
European VC firm 2150 raised a €210 million second fund from 34 limited partners.
Why it matters: The fund's city-first thesis and its stated interest in data centers and industrial automation show where climate-focused capital is moving as AI power demand grows.
