Paris-based company, Decade Energy, has raised €22 million in a round led by Eiffel Investment Group and SET Ventures, with continued backing from existing investors Ananda Impact Ventures and Contrarian Ventures. The round is split between €16M for project deployment and €6M led by SET Ventures for product and expansion. The company targets 100MW+ of battery energy storage systems (BESS) projects across France, with Germany, the Nordics, and Poland to follow. The business model allows logistics property owners and depot operators to provide the grid connections, BESS installations, EV charging infrastructure, solar panels, and energy management software they need to support electric truck fleets without making a capital outlay. The firm's early traction figures include over 1,500 depot electrification feasibility studies across Europe and over 100 projects representing over 500MW of capacity under development.
