Marunouchi Innovation Partners Co., Ltd. through Marunouchi Climate Tech Growth Fund L.P. (collectively "MIP"), has invested in 1KOMMA5°GmbH (“1KOMMA5°”), as part of its next growth financing round.

1KOMMA5° offers building and homeowners a one-stop shop for renewable energy solutions such as solar panels, battery storage, heat pumps, air conditioning, and electric vehicle chargers. The company connects and intelligently controls these assets through its proprietary Heartbeat AI platform, which automatically optimizes households’ energy consumption, storage, and interaction with the power grid.

European households are increasingly seeking to reduce energy costs and transition away from fossil fuels. At the same time, greater renewable energy penetration and more dynamic electricity pricing are creating demand for intelligent systems that can coordinate distributed energy assets. 1KOMMA5° addresses these needs by combining equipment, installation, electricity services, and AI-powered energy management on a single platform. With its integrated offering, growing European presence, and expanding installed customer base, 1KOMMA5° is well positioned to accelerate household decarbonization while supporting a more flexible, affordable and efficient energy system.
