EDP Ventures

EDP Ventures is the corporate venture capital arm of EDP — Energias de Portugal, one of Europe's largest energy utilities. Established in 2008 and headquartered in Lisbon, with investment teams in Madrid and São Paulo, it manages €150M and makes five to eight investments a year, writing €1–10M cheques from Seed through Series B with follow-on capacity.

Its mandate is tightly aligned with EDP's decarbonisation strategy, targeting renewable energy, grid infrastructure, distributed energy resources, green hydrogen, storage and flexibility, electric mobility and energy-use decarbonisation, plus AI and digital. The fund has backed 40+ active companies across Europe and the Americas, including Portuguese AI unicorn Feedzai, battery-recycling firm Green Li-ion and grid-data platform Energyworx (acquired by Gridspertise in 2025); four portfolio companies featured in the 2024 Global Cleantech 100. By end-2023 EDP Ventures had deployed a cumulative €70M and generated over €115M in contract value for EDP group companies.
