Following the success of the first edition—where Clever Solar Devices was one of the selected startups—ERIA, the corporate venturing unit of Grupo Estabanell, has opened applications for the second edition of its acceleration program. This equity-free initiative targets pre-seed and seed-stage startups with innovative solutions in energy generation, distribution, and commercialization.

During the first edition, Clever Solar Devices began a collaboration with Estabanell to digitize the maintenance of photovoltaic installations, optimize data, and improve solar plant performance. This continuity highlights Estabanell’s commitment to innovation and the integration of cutting-edge technologies in the energy sector.

Selected startups will receive up to €10,000 in non-dilutive funding, specialized mentorship, and the opportunity to test their solutions in a real-world environment. Applications are open until April 14, and the program will conclude with a DemoDay on December 19.
