Renewable Energy Platform Tensor Energy Selected for Fukuoka City's Startup Support 'High Growth Program' 2026

Tensor Energy Inc. (Headquarters: Chuo-ku, Fukuoka City; Representatives: Nana Hori, Carlos Vincent), a company dedicated to optimizing renewable energy, has been selected as an adopted company for the 2026 'High Growth Program' (HGP), a startup support initiative implemented by Fukuoka Growth Next (FGN), a startup support hub in Fukuoka City. This marks their third selection, following the 2024 and 2025 programs.

Under the mission of making Fukuoka a world-class startup city, FGN provides intensive support to startups expected to grow into representative companies of Fukuoka through the selective 'High Growth Program.' For the 2026 fiscal year, the program has evolved into a value-up initiative designed to sustainably increase the corporate value of each company. It begins with analyzing the current management situation and refining business plans. Experts in various fields, including entrepreneurs with IPO experience and top venture capitalists, will provide hands-on support to resolve management issues and accelerate growth.

Founded in November 2021, Tensor Energy develops 'Tensor Cloud,' a cloud AI platform for renewable energy generation businesses. The service automates and optimizes complex operations such as business planning, power market trading, supply and demand management, and financial management using data and AI. It has already been implemented in 1,051 power plants totaling 194MW nationwide. In collaboration with Tokyo Century Corporation, the company began full-scale operation of solar-paired battery storage in June 2024. Following a 950 million JPY Series A funding round in April 2026, the company successfully realized autopilot (automated operation) for battery storage starting in May 2026.

Moving forward, Tensor Energy plans to further enhance Tensor Cloud and fully launch an aggregation business for low-voltage battery storage systems, aiming to build the premier operational platform in Japan. The company also intends to demonstrate operational performance, expand support to extra-high voltage energy storage systems, and strengthen industry-academia-government collaboration. Tensor Energy will continue its efforts to create a sustainable energy future from Fukuoka to the world.
