Latimer Controls is thrilled to announce our selection for the Beta-i EDP Energy Starter Program, which connects cutting-edge energy startups with EDP, a global leader in renewable energy development. Energy Starter is an innovation program organized by Beta-i, a leading innovation consultancy headquartered in Portugal, and backed by EDP, one of Europe’s foremost integrated utilities. In addition to their regulated utility operations, EDP is a leading developer of PV and renewable energy projects worldwide. EDP will invest more than $25B in renewable energy development globally between 2023-2026, resulting in 4.5GW/yr of gross additions in North America, Europe, and South America, and positioning them as one of the largest global renewable development players. The Energy Starter Program pairs emerging energy innovation technology with relevant departments within EDP to support their commitment to Net Zero by 2040, while offering startups like Latimer Controls a valuable opportunity to demonstrate and scale innovative technology.
Latimer Controls will travel to Lisbon, Portugal, for a three-day bootcamp in December, where we’ll meet with EDP representatives and hold work sessions to explore potential pilot opportunities. During this time, we will showcase our Flexible Solar Management System (FSMS) and explore potential integrations across EDP's diverse operations. This program will enable us to engage with EDP’s extensive renewable development experience and Beta-i’s proven innovation framework, opening up new pathways for global collaboration. We look forward to refining our approach, expanding into worldwide markets, and continuing to drive forward-thinking innovation in renewable energy.
