Dexter Energy was founded in 2017 by Luuk Veeken – a former business analyst with an independent venture capital firm specialised in clean energy investments. It started off as an idea of using machine learning to improve the electricity system. Today, Dexter Energy is a startup that uses AI to help energy companies optimise their portfolios, and yesterday, the company announced that it raised €2M in a Series A funding round led by Newion.
