Fuse energy: DePIN raises $70M to revolutionize energy consumption

What is Fuse Energy? The Power Grid of Tomorrow
Fuse Energy is not just a concept; it’s a company already supplying power to 200,000 households in the United Kingdom. Its goal is to create a Virtual Power Plant by optimizing energy consumption among its users. The principle is simple: incentivize people to use electricity during off-peak hours to reduce grid congestion.
$ENERGY is the incentive layer of The Energy Network. Here’s how it works 👇
1/ Register: Connect your home or existing EV chargers, solar panels, and batteries in the Fuse Energy app. No proprietary hardware required.
The project stands out for its accessibility: no need to purchase proprietary hardware. You can connect your existing electric vehicle chargers, solar panels, and batteries directly through the Fuse Energy app.
The $ENERGY Token: How Does It Work and How Can You Benefit?
The heart of the system is the $ENERGY token, which serves as the incentive layer. The process unfolds in four simple steps:
Register: Connect your devices (EV charger, solar panels, etc.) to the app.
Shift: Move your energy consumption to times when the grid is less stressed. This can be done manually or automatically. This action generates revenue by optimizing the network, which is then shared.
Earn: You are rewarded with $ENERGY tokens for your contribution. Rewards are directly linked to the economic value you create. Token emissions are degressive, thus favoring early adopters.
Burn: Use your $ENERGY tokens to get discounts on hardware sold by Fuse, creating a deflationary mechanism.
To benefit, simply participate actively in the network. The more you contribute to balancing the power grid, the more $ENERGY tokens you earn.
Why Fuse Energy Could Explode
Several factors position Fuse Energy for potentially explosive success. First, the timing is perfect. The world faces a dual energy demand: massive electrification (electric vehicles) and the boom in artificial intelligence, two extremely energy-hungry sectors. Fuse provides a concrete solution to managing this demand. Second, the institutional validation is impressive.
A $70 million funding round led by top-tier funds like Lowercarbon Capital and Balderton, which includes the founder of Revolut, is no small matter. Finally, the DePIN model, which relies on decentralized physical infrastructure, is one of the hottest narratives. By creating a virtuous value loop between the real economy and tokenomics, Fuse Energy has all the assets to become a giant in tech and crypto.
