Paris-based electrification startup DejaBlue has secured €7.2 million in seed funding to enhance its platform that manages flexible energy loads, such as EV charging and on-site solar systems.
The funding round was led by Redalpine, with additional participation from Zeno Ventures and Bpifrance.
A smarter approach to energy optimisation
DejaBlue’s platform offers a unified system for businesses, fleet operators, and real estate owners to manage EV chargers, solar panels, and energy contracts. By intelligently shifting energy loads to periods of high renewable generation, the system reduces costs, lowers grid stress, and increases demand for clean energy.
Founders with deep industry roots
Founded by Parker Spielman and Baptiste Richard—alumni of Google Fi, Uber, and Lyft—DejaBlue leverages real-time systems expertise to tackle rising energy prices and grid volatility. Their goal is to turn energy flexibility into a strategic asset.
Plans for growth and innovation
The newly raised capital will support the company’s expansion across France and Europe. The company will also invest in AI-driven automation tools, roll out innovative energy contracts, and double its workforce from 15 to 30, with an emphasis on technical roles.
Backers see strategic potential
Redalpine Principal Mira Kamp noted the team’s speed and execution, saying, “DejaBlue is uniquely positioned to reshape the energy market through load optimisation, demand response, and a seamless end-to-end experience.”
