Yuon helps cities heat smarter. Our AI software makes district heating efficient, reliable, and sustainable — powering Europe’s energy transition.
Current Status
Our product is market-ready and deployed with several major Swiss utilities, already delivering measurable efficiency gains. We have strategic partnerships with Hoval and Siemens, are integrated in their sales channels, and have a strong pipeline exceeding CHF 10 million in annual potential revenue in Switzerland alone, while we are starting to expand with first signed deals in Germany.
Problem or Opportunity
District heating networks are inefficient — up to 30% of generated heat is lost during distribution due to outdated control systems and lack of real-time optimization. Utilities waste energy and money daily, while struggling to meet climate goals and growing heat demand.
Solution (product or service)
Yuon provides smart grid software for district heating. Our AI-driven algorithms learn each network’s thermal behavior, forecast demand, and automatically optimize energy flow. This reduces thermal losses and operating costs by up to 25%, increases network capacity, and boosts sustainability — all without hardware replacement.
Business model
Yuon operates on a scalable license-based model. Utilities pay a recurring fee linked to the size of their network. This ensures predictable recurring revenue and natural growth as clients expand. The solution is fully software-based, requiring no local modifications and easily scalable across Europe.
