London-based energy technology startup Metris Energy has raised €4.35 million ($5 million) in a Seed funding round. The company uses AI to help businesses manage energy assets more efficiently and at a larger scale.
As part of the announcement, Metris Energy has also launched Metria AI, a new AI-powered interface. It can handle complex tasks that were previously done manually by operations teams.
The funding round was led by PT1 Ventures, Octopus Ventures, AENU and Blackfinch Ventures. Plug and Play and Love Ventures also participated in the round.
Natasha Jones, founder and CEO of Metris, commented, “Metris was founded on the core belief that the winners of the energy transition won’t be the owners of the most kW of capacity, but those who can view, control and monetise them best. There’s no unified layer that lets asset owners, or the AI agents now entering this space, actually see and act on their portfolio. That’s the gap we’re closing with Metris.”
Metris Energy was founded in 2025 by former Octopus VC employee Jones and software engineer and serial entrepreneur William Whatley. According to Whatley’s LinkedIn profile, he left the company in March 2025.
Metris initially focused on bringing together energy data from different sources. These included inverters, meters, SCADA systems, CRMs, spreadsheets and financial tools.
The company has since expanded its goal. It now aims to become a single data layer for the wider energy industry, making it easier for companies to manage and use their data.
Metris describes its platform as an AI-native operating system for renewable energy owners and operators. It brings asset performance, revenue and operational data together in one place, helping energy companies manage their portfolios more efficiently.
Fabian Koening, Partner at PT1 Ventures, stated, “Natasha and the Metris Energy team are building the data infrastructure that makes energy assets visible in real-time, unlocking the opportunity for AI to transform the space. Their platform is already driving down the cost of operating asset portfolios at scale and opening market access to flexible energy contracts. Watching the team thrive over the past months only strengthened our conviction to back Metris Energy in this round.”
Metris Energy plans to use the new funding to improve the AI agents behind its platform. The company also wants to expand its technology to support wind energy and Combined Heat and Power (CHP) systems.
The company also plans to grow across Europe, with a strong focus on Germany. Metris has already added several new customers in the German market.
