Rabot Energy, a market leader in dynamic electricity tariffs, led by Jan Rabe and the team, has raised a €50 million Series B funding round. The new lead investor is Endeit, a growth capital investor specializing in European tech scale-ups, together with the DeepTech & Climate Fund (DTCF). Existing investors included HV Capital, High-Tech Gründerfonds (HTGF), Bosch Ventures, CNI, Acurio Ventures, and vent.io.


The funding will support the company’s next growth phase, targeting one million customers and advancing its proprietary technology. A key focus is connecting home battery storage systems into virtual power plants to improve grid flexibility as electrification drives demand for smarter energy consumption and storage management.


From Consumer to Part of the Energy System.


Rabot Energy combines dynamic electricity tariffs with automated energy management, shifting household consumption to periods when electricity is cheaper and renewable power is abundant. This helps reduce reliance on fossil-fuel generation during peak demand and minimizes renewable energy curtailment.


Launched in June 2026, Rabot Flow integrates a dynamic tariff, smart meter, and plug-and-play battery storage, potentially reducing energy costs by 15% for an average household. The solution requires no private solar installation and can be activated through a standard electrical outlet.


By connecting household energy storage and flexible consumption, Rabot Energy aims to build a decentralized energy infrastructure that lowers electricity costs, supports renewable integration, and reduces Europe's dependence on fossil fuel imports.


“The next generation of power plants won’t be built, it will be interconnected. Millions of households hold enormous, untapped potential: not just to consume energy, but to intelligently integrate it into the overall system. With Series B, we are transforming individual households into a network that stabilizes the electricity system, accelerates the energy transition, and, as a bonus, significantly reduces our customers’ electricity bills,” says Jan Rabe, CEO of Rabot Energy.


“Germany’s energy transition is reaching a point where flexibility is becoming just as important as the expansion of renewable energies. Rabot is creating the conditions for actively involving millions of households: They can help stabilize the electricity grid and benefit from it at the same time. Jan Rabe and his team have built a profitable core business and possess the technology to intelligently manage electricity demand on a large scale. This is precisely the combination needed by an energy system that is increasingly based on renewable energies. We are proud to lead this financing round,” says Sara Resvik, Partner at Endeit.


“Rabot Energy addresses a key challenge of the energy transition: With innovative energy tariffs and an intelligent energy management platform, the company enables households to benefit from the dynamics of an increasingly volatile energy market. Jan and his team immediately impressed me with their ambitious vision, outstanding implementation skills, and tireless commitment. We are delighted to support them on this journey as a partner,” commented Dr. Anne Hinze, Senior Investment Manager at DTCF.


Growth and Financing.


Rabot Energy has surpassed 200,000 customers, including around 15,000 business and industrial clients, within three and a half years, generating €200 million in revenue. The company supplies over 600 million kWh of green electricity and estimates customer savings of approximately €45 million by 2025 compared with default supplier tariffs.


From Dynamic Tariffs to a Connected Energy Platform.


The Series B funding will accelerate Rabot Energy’s expansion across Germany’s residential, commercial, and industrial markets, while advancing its technology platform and integrating more connected devices, including battery storage systems, EV wallboxes, and heat pumps.
