Avokado, a new and ambitious technology startup, was introduced to the Greek and international audience on Wednesday 21 June, aspiring to change the way we use, produce and interact with energy.
Adoption of new technological solutions and in particular Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a necessary condition for the implementation of the green energy transition. However, global supply is limited compared to the existing demand. Avokado comes to fill this gap, with solutions tailored to the needs of the global smart energy market.
Powered by MYTILINEOS Energy & Metals, Avokado promises to create an energy future worth experiencing through new and exciting services. Combining AI, Data Intelligence and new technologies such as Internet of Energy, Mobile, Social, Blockchain, it is reshaping the way we perceive energy supply and is building "smart cities" for "smart citizens".
Yannis Kalafatas, Chief Executive Director of MYTILINEOS Energy Sector, which is the Angel Investor of Avokado, described the company's vision and the need to create in-house expertise. "My insistence on investing in Avokado has been rewarded and I feel proud of this first year of operation which has given us the unique Smart Cities platform, innovation labs and tools for the energy consumer of the future".
In a rapidly changing energy environment, the goal for a large energy company such as MYTILINEOS is not only to keep up with developments, but to drive them and produce services and products that are useful and sustainable for all.
Panagiotis Kanellopoulos, CEO and Co-Founder of Avokado explained the vision and purpose of Avokado. "A company with a startup spirit, working to revolutionize the way we produce and consume energy. With extroversion and dynamism, it already addresses Greek and international markets, offering solutions to corporate and industrial clients, municipalities and communities, and soon, with the evolution of the algorithms processed by Avokado's people, to more and more individual consumers and businesses."
Avokado is positioned in the global market with a comprehensive portfolio of AI solutions that meet the demands of energy producers and consumers in terms of meeting their energy needs from clean energy sources and reducing their carbon footprint:
Avokado is driven by a strong commitment to sustainable future which transcends the Energy sector. Its mission is to become the most reliable ally for the energy transition, in terms of sustainability and respect for people and the environment, at European and global level.
Vassilis Nikolopoulos CTO and Co-Founder of Avokado explained the new prosumer model, the strategy for AI as well as how value and new revenues are created for stakeholders. “Prosumers are now becoming partners in a new decentralized energy market, and Avokado's products and services maximize these new prosumer values. I am especially happy that Avokado is taking shape with the support of a major investor. Our goal is to become one of the most important Greek technology companies, in the field of Cleantech and Climate tech, aiming at the global market.”
As stated by Vivian Bouzali, Chief Corporate Affairs & Communications Officer of MYTILINEOS, in her welcoming speech to the guests of the Avokado launch, "our goal is to conquer Greek and international markets, benefitting the consumer - who is evolving into a prosumer - giving them the power to manage energy themselves.”
Through cutting-edge AI technologies, Avokado aims to revolutionize the way energy is produced, distributed and consumed, with AI solutions for the energy of the future, optimizing the use of energy resources and minimizing carbon emissions.
