Eindhoven-based Integer Technologies, an AI platform for plug-and-play heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) optimisation, has secured €1M in funding.

The round was led by LUMO Labs, with participation from BOM (Brabant Development Agency) and VP Capital.

Jeroen Heine, Director Investments at VP Capital, says, “At VP Capital, we back innovations that accelerate the transition to a more sustainable future. Integer Technologies has developed a scalable solution that boosts building energy efficiency and drives substantial energy savings, helping reduce carbon emissions and build a cleaner, more resilient future.”

“We’re proud to be part of this round alongside trusted partners like LUMO Labs and BOM.”

Expanding access to building energy optimisation

Energy management was once limited to large buildings and required highly skilled personnel. 

Integer enables HVAC installers to deploy predictive control and automation in commercial buildings and respond to rising costs, labour shortages, and demand for energy savings, CO2 reduction, and grid stability.

Antoine Post, CEO and co-founder of Integer Technologies, says, “In a sector where skilled technical personnel are increasingly scarce, we’re giving installers a tool they can deploy in days, instead of months. With our AI and physics-driven models, we’re making world-class building optimisation accessible for everyone.”

Founded in 2021, Integer Technologies develops plug-and-play AI and physics-based optimisation solutions for HVAC installers and building owners. Its platform connects data from HVAC components to support energy savings, regulatory compliance, and lower environmental impact.

Through Integer’s platform, building owners and operators can achieve up to 40 per cent energy savings with predictive control algorithms, reduce grid congestion through intelligent energy distribution, and automate compliance with European EPBD legislation (recognised as GACS in the Netherlands). 

The platform also enables 10× faster configuration without coding and supports secure remote management to improve maintenance efficiency.

Daan van Lange, Senior Investment Manager & Team Lead Climate Tech at BOM, mentions, “Integer Technologies transforms every building into a smart energy hub, unlocking flexibility that directly tackles grid congestion. Their scalable platform delivers efficiency, resilience, and carbon reduction — making Integer a cornerstone of the decentralised energy future and a compelling investment for BOM.”

Currently, the company operates in the Netherlands and is preparing for European expansion. Integer has previously received funding from the Brabant Start-up Fund, Graduate Entrepreneur, Rabobank, and angel investor Gert-Jan Steenman.

Capital utilisation

The funds will be used to expand the European deployment of Integer’s AI-driven, physics-informed platform. The technology enables HVAC installers to optimise systems without programming expertise or building management knowledge.

Dagmar van Ravenswaay Claasen, Senior Partner at LUMO Labs, says, “Integer Technologies presents a scalable solution for a growing challenge. This investment allows Integer’s growing team to expand into new markets and specifically target small and medium-sized commercial buildings—a segment long underserved due to the high costs and complexity of existing solutions.”

“By lowering the barrier for installers, Integer enables significantly more building owners to cut energy costs, to comply with regulations, and to reduce their environmental footprint.”
