Venture Client Unit of OGE: Creating Strong Bonds

OGE × start-ups

Various molecules will flow through our infrastructure in the future. This offers new potential and challenges that we would like to address together with start-ups. That is why we are happy to introduce OGE’s new Venture Client Unit: molekju:l. Hence, we want to strengthen our collaboration with start-ups and work together on solutions for the energy industry of tomorrow.

Are you interested in working with us? Send an email to molekjul.

Win–win situation

We offer start-ups the entry ticket to the complex energy industry, simplify the process of gaining a foothold in this landscape and enable simpler ways of working together. As a leading gas transmission system operator, OGE becomes one of your early start-up customers and we, as OGE, look forward to receiving access to your new innovative solutions.

Our fields of interest

As a future carrier of green gases, we are interested in solutions for various focus areas. You can’t assign your innovations to any of these fields but are revolutionizing the energy industry with them? Then get in touch with us anyway! We are looking forward to your ideas!

Success storys

OGE × Deeplify

In the first quarter of 2023, we began working with the start-up Deeplify GmbH to solve a challenge in the context of hydrogen. Under the project name “Merge 221”, the joint initiative was set up between various OGE departments and Deeplify. The aim of the project was to merge two data sets using artificial intelligence in order to greatly simplify the work. Merging the data records was previously a time-consuming, complex and manual process.

“By involving start-ups like Deeplify, we have the unique opportunity to incorporate the combination of a fresh mindset and state-of-the-art technologies into our projects and daily work”
