    Branch Energy raises $10.8M series A led by Prelude Ventures

    August 9, 20242 Mins Read


    A tech-driven retail energy provider based in Houston has secured an oversubscribed series A round of funding.

    Branch Energy raised a $10.8 million round led by climate-focused venture capital firm Prelude Ventures with co-investor Zero Infinity Partners, an infrastructure tech-focused firm. The fresh funding will go toward accelerating the company’s battery management tech and build out the infrastructure of its field services.

    A vertically integrated power provider, Branch Energy aims to provide customers with demand management software and battery storage systems to ensure long-term, stable, and clean energy at a lower cost than competitors.

    “Our century-old grid design is not equipped for the complexity of today’s energy needs,” Alex Ince-Cushman, Branch Energy co-founder and CEO, says in a news release. “Optimizing distributed energy assets in real-time will play an increasingly important role in managing the grid. We built Branch from the ground up as a technology company, allowing us to deliver value to customers in this new era of distributed energy by reducing costs while improving reliability.”

    The company chose Texas as its inaugural market based on the stress of the grid in the state, the company says in the release. Since 2021 when Branch Energy launched, it has signed up thousands of customers for its 100 percent clean energy service. The business proposition includes lowering customer’s energy bills by 5 to 10 percent.

    “The power grid, especially in Texas, requires distributed generation and flexible loads as basic economics drives deployment of more renewable resources,” Tim Woodward, managing partner at Prelude Ventures, adds. “Across the country, we are experiencing a major shift toward a decentralized and decarbonized grid. Branch Energy is bringing value to its customers through deployment of intelligent storage that lowers costs and improves reliability.”

    Branch Energy, which is available now in some Texas regions, had previously raised $5.5 million in seed and pre-seed funding, per Crunchbase.
