Orkestra are pleased to announce our selection for Energy Lab's 2023 Climate Solutions Accelerator program. After a highly competitive selection process, Orkestra are one of ten startups who will be participating in the 6-month program with Australia and New Zealand's largest climate tech startup accelerator and innovation network.

Selected by a committee of angel investors, Energy Lab CEO Megan Fisher noted that the 2023 startup cohort highlights the maturity of the clean energy and tech startup ecosystem in Australia and New Zealand.

"The technologies and intellectual property being developed by these startups is remarkable. This year's cohort is working on everything from low emissions aviation and steel production to more effective management of wind and solar resources to the much needed capability to recycle solar panels and batteries at the end of life. This program will support these startups to get to their next level of growth, ready to take these essential solutions to the world."

One of just a few SaaS companies in the cohort, Orkestra Co-CEO James Allston says the company are pleased to join the accelerator program as they look toward deploying their innovative feasibility modelling platform for solar energy projects to international markets.
