WHY NOW
European energy costs run 2× those in the US and China. Electricity demand is on track to double by 2050. Volatility and complexity aren't temporary — they are structural.
trawa is building the solution: the first integrated B2B energy platform that bundles procurement, energy management, and flexibility steering into one product.

All three founders are on board and fully committed to building the utility of the future.
