TotalEnergies On at VivaTech 2023
06/23/2023
At Vivatech 2023, meet 4 start-ups from the TotalEnergies On program and find out how the solutions they are developing are directly relevant to our business.
Sabine Brochard, Program Manager – TotalEnergies On
We are TotalEnergies On, the accelerator program representing TotalEnergies at VivaTech 2023. We're an accelerator program that has welcomed 19 startups at Station F, in the heart of Paris. And today we're celebrating our first anniversary.
TotalEnergies On is a program that covers the electricity business, and represents the entire electron pathway, from generation to consumption, via storage, trading and retail. The startups we select, around ten every six months, are in the acceleration phase, so that we can test their products, their solutions directly in our business units.
Jon Asin, CEO – BeePlanet Factory
My startup is called BeePlanet Factory and it is specialized in energy storage systems based on second-life batteries from electric vehicles.
Edouard Heripet, Co- Founder – Time2Plug
Time2plug is a company that installs and manages electric vehicle charging stations for businesses. The market is huge, with an estimated 3.5 million charging stations to be installed in France by 2030.
Christoph Laurnstein, CEO & Co-Founder – Nash
Our startup provides software for the optimization of renewable energy projects in the design phase. With that, we solve the profitability problem that many renewable energy developers have today. We have run many pilot projects with our customers and validated our solution. We have started to implement it as a software, but we have also run many advisory engineering kind of services.
Jérôme Imbert, CEO – SEEREEMA
Sereema is a company whose mission is to optimize wind farms. We do this through a technology we've developed ourselves, which is a connected box we install in each of the wind turbines we want to supervise. It works like a connected watch.
Jon Asin
This program has been a great opportunity. You know, when TotalEnergies selects your company, many people are questioning: “Why is TotalEnergies working with these guys?” People think that we have something special. I believe we do. Together with TotalEnergies, we can become a global player.
Edouard Heripet
TotalEnergies On has brought us so much since the beginning first in terms of brand awareness, and behind that, a very pragmatic approach since our solution was tested on real customer cases. We were able to validate our value proposition with the TotalEnergies team.
Jérôme Imbert
This enables us to work with a major industrial player. And that's where, for us, there's a very interesting synergy to be created, because it's our credo to develop this energy in terms of operating performance,improving production, and responsiveness in the operation of wind farms.
Christoph Laurnstein
We started to work with TotalEnergies On in December last year. We have rapidly started to engage in pilot projects, experiments that were able to show the value of our solution in many solar, and a few wind projects. With the experiments at TotalEnergies, we’ve been able to prove the value of our solution.
Edouard Heripet
The next step for us is to continue serving TotalEnergies customers,and to increase the volume of customers we serve. We are having advanced discussions about a closer collaboration between our two companies.
Sabine Brochard
We're delighted to be celebrating one year of the TotalEnergies On program. In September, we will welcome the 3rd batch.
