We make industrial battery storage economically viable.

Volatile electricity markets and unpredictable prices make it increasingly difficult for companies to control their energy costs. The problem isn't the hardware, but the intelligence with which it is operated. We build the software that changes this.

About us

We build the software that makes industrial battery storage intelligent.

Our mission

We enable battery storage manufacturers, project developers, energy suppliers and industrial companies to deploy battery storage in industry economically and intelligently, making mid-sized businesses and industry competitive and future-proof.

The challenge

Battery storage is a central key to the energy transition in industry. Yet although it has the potential to massively reduce energy costs and make companies more resilient, it is hardly used. The reason: storage is usually operated statically today, according to fixed rules, without market intelligence, without dynamic optimization. As a result, enormous economic potential goes untapped.

This is exactly where we come in

We develop the software that makes industrial battery storage truly intelligent: dynamic, forecast-based and economical. With mathematical optimization, machine learning and precise forecasts, we enable multi-use operation and optimized energy deployment. This turns storage into a strategic advantage rather than an investment with a long payback period.

Who we are

Furo was founded by Lena Voß, Simon Wittner and Leonie Wagner. The three founders know each other from their time at the Technical University of Munich and have worked on the same problem from different perspectives: making energy economically usable. In research and practice — including at Berkeley and Stanford as well as in the battery, software and tech industries — we have seen again and again that the problem isn't the hardware, but the missing intelligence behind it.

Energy optimization is not a niche IT project. It is the most important lever for industrial competitiveness in Europe.
Trust comes from transparency, not perfection. We tell our customers honestly where our models are strong and where they are still learning.
Good software is built close to the customer. We go to market quickly, learn quickly and develop along real problems.
The energy transition is only possible in partnership. We collaborate with others instead of scaling alone.
