SOLshare, from Bangladesh, is the big winner in the second edition of Free Electrons.

EDP launches the seventh edition of Energy Starter, the programme for startups that aim to drive the energy transition globally. The 2022 edition will have three modules, focused on renewable energy, networks and customer solutions.

• EDP is one of the new investors in the US-based startup Captura, in a 21.5 million dollars funding round. 
• Direct Ocean Capture allows captured CO2 to be permanently stored or transformed into low emission fuel, thereby assisting the most challenging sectors in decarbonization. 

Energy Startups can already subscribe to this year's edition of EDP's global business acceleration program.

The accelerator created by EDP will have modules in three cities and Lisbon will host the final again during the Web Summit.
