Zetlitzveien 2, Stavanger, Rogaland, 4017, Norway

Overview

Starflow is a Norwegian climate-tech startup led by Easee co-founder Jonas Helmikstøl that aims to transform home energy management through beautifully designed hardware and software. Its first product, the Energy Hub, is a lightweight, modular hybrid-inverter that unifies solar panels, battery storage, electric-vehicle charging and power optimization in one unit. The system functions as the ‘brain’ of the modern home, converting DC to AC while providing an open platform with secure APIs and an SDK so utilities and smart-home developers can build additional services. Starflow’s philosophy is that sustainability wins when products evoke emotion and pride, echoing Tesla’s appeal to consumers beyond pure environmental motives. The founding team also includes Ola Stengel and Nikolai Konopelko, veterans from Zaptec and Easee, bringing deep expertise in turning functional energy hardware into coveted design objects. Financially, the company has just secured NOK 75 million in new capital, comprising a NOK 50 million seed equity round and NOK 25 million in green government grants, only six months after its previous raise. The fresh funds will be used to launch the Energy Hub and accelerate development of its open energy platform.
