## Overview
Founded in 2024, Powernaut builds software that aggregates distributed energy assets, such as batteries, solar installations, and flexible loads, into a coordinated Virtual Power Plant. This enables grid operators and energy traders to treat dispersed assets as a single dispatchable resource.

The EUR 2.4M raise, completed in 2024, funds the platform's development and initial market entry. Virtual Power Plant technology is gaining traction across Europe as grids absorb more intermittent renewables and flexibility becomes a tradable commodity.

Powernaut operates from Ghent (https://techwiki.ai/cities/ghent/llms.txt) and is part of the growing Belgian cleantech and energy technology cluster.
