Qué es Chippio, la comercializadora impulsada por IA

Chippio, a Barcelona-based startup, has emerged as the first AI-driven energy supplier in Spain, serving thousands of households across the country. Founded in 2020 as part of Fortum, a leading Nordic energy provider, Chippio now boasts a lean team of just 12 professionals. Despite its young age and small size, the company competes with industry giants, thanks to its focus on operational efficiency and agility.

The innovative model relies heavily on automation and in-house software development, enabling Chippio to create complex functionalities within just four months. By leveraging artificial intelligence, the startup provides customers with real-time data, setting it apart from traditional energy suppliers. Chippio offers users the choice between paying market-rate electricity prices or a constant rate throughout the day, without any commitment clauses.

The company's digital-first approach empowers users to manage their energy consumption entirely through the app, granting them complete control and understanding of their usage patterns. With 80% of Chippio users actively managing their energy via the app, the startup is democratizing access to energy by shedding light on the opaque practices often found in the sector.

As an environmentally conscious business, Chippio's sustainable model has attracted investors and partners from abroad, showcasing the potential for AI-driven energy solutions to transform the industry.
