In Zahlen
WaVe-X, the corporate venture capital (CVC) arm of Austria-based real estate giant Walter Group, has invested in the 10 million Euro financing round of Berlin-based energy and building renovation specialist Fuchs & Eule. GET Fund led this financing round, while PI Impact and existing investors SET Ventures, Picus Capital, and Realyze Ventures also participated in the round. Founded in 2021, Fuchs & Eule supports residential and commercial property owners in energy efficiency renovation processes by offering artificial intelligence and data analysis.
According to WaVe-X executives, this investment draws strength from a generational "building renovation supercycle" in the DACH (Germany, Austria, Switzerland) region. Strict regulations such as Germany's Climate Protection Act and the EU Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD) create immense pressure on corporate property owners. In a market environment where buildings that do not comply with ESG standards and have low energy efficiency lose value, technologies like Fuchs & Eule offer a great opportunity to manage these risks.
The said investment also provides a strategic benefit for Walter Group's own real estate assets. The technology offered by the company could be used to optimize Walter Group's extensive residential portfolio in Austria, Germany, and Denmark, and to ensure ESG compliance. It was stated that this partnership between the two companies is not one-sided; Walter Group will actively support Fuchs & Eule's entry into the Austrian market and its international expansion using its own network.
