Our Activities

After trading more than USD 1bn clean power and emissions, Laurent Segalen and his partners founded Megawatt-X in 2013.

London-based Megawatt-X has one mission: enabling the funding of the Energy Transition.

We invest in strategic sub sectors of the Energy Infrastructure.

Environmental Digital Markets

Megawatt-X was the first platform to list more than 15GW of wind and solar assets for investors to allocate capital. Then we seeded Zeigo, a ground breaking digital PPA platform that we ended up selling to Schneider Electric in 2022.

We are now fully invested into a new platform Renewabl, the premier market place to track and trade green electrons 24/7 under the rules of EnergyTag.

Energy behind the meter

Megawatt-X believes in “behind the meter” solutions. We were early investors into Febesol, a leading German rooftop solar installer, that grew by 7x under our tenure.

In 2024, we successfully sold Febesol to Thermondo, the leading heat pump installer in Germany. The capital will be reallocated in a new venture to lease mobile batteries, under the management of award-winning platform Skoon.

Interconnectors

After successfully arranging the Series A for a new Sub Sea interconnector, MaresConnect, between Ireland and GB, Megawatt-X is now considering longer distances. Better technologies, the need for more Energy Security and the need to balance at intermittent sources of renewable energy are very potential drivers for the development of transcontinental cables. Megawatt-X is at the forefront of those developments.

Knowledge

Megawatt-X co-hosts the Redefining Energy podcast, ranked as one the top 3 Energy podcast according to Google.

Launched in 2018, the podcast has been downloaded more than 1.5 million times and has gained multiple awards over the years.

Laurent Segalen has been appointed at the Distinguished Advisory Group of the Integrity Council for the Voluntary Carbon Markets.

The Integrity Council is an independent governance body for the voluntary carbon market. Its purpose is to ensure the voluntary carbon market accelerates a just transition to 1.5⁰C.
