fell to$2.8 billion,down from an average of$4.4 billion per quarter in 2022.Similarly,deal count fell to 138,down from the quarterly average of 173 in 2022 and representing the lowest deal count for the vertical since Q4 2020.On a quarter-over-quarter basis,the fall in both deal value and deal count is more modest:Q4 2022s deal activity included$3.7 billion across 148 deals.In Q1 2023,intermittent renewable energy sources was the largest segment in the clean energy vertical with$1.3 billion in deal valuesignificantly higher than the grid infrastructure segment,which was the next largest at$674.0 million.The$1.3 billion VC investment in intermittent renewable energy sources represents 52%growth from the segments deal value in the previous quarter.Overall,dispatchable energy sources and grid infrastructure decreased in deal value from Q4 2022,while clean fuels increased slightly from$456.4 million to$628.1 million.The largest categories of Q1 2023 were solar photovoltaic,battery storage,and hydrogen,though the latter two dropped in deal value relative to 2022 averages.Overall,many categories declined in total deal value,though the overall decline in deal value was somewhat mitigated by the very strong VC investment in solar photovoltaic companies.Many of the largest deals of the quarterincluding four of the five largestwere raised by solar photovoltaic technology developers,with the largest being China-headquartered HuaSun Energys$291.1 million Series B,followed by Germany-headquartered Enpals$228.4 million Series D funding.Clean energy

focused on residential solar installations.Enpal largely addresses the German market for residential solar energy and differs from many solar providers in that the bulk of its business is leasing solar hardware rather than selling installations.This rental model allows customers to avoid the substantial initial costs associated with purchasing a solar system and instead theoretically pay them off over the lifetime of the systempotentially increasing the customer base.Enpals rental agreements normally require 20 years of fixed monthly payments,after which the system can be purchased for 1,but for those who wish to purchase outright,there is also an option to buy rather than rent.The company currently serves approximately 45,000 customers,with 345,000 MWh produced.Enpals technology involves solar panels as well as supporting hardware and software.Energy storage systems are a standard inclusion and come in the form of lithium-ion battery systems,which improve energy independence by allowing excess solar energy generated to be used outside of peak times.The companys systems can also include EV charging infrastructure for those who wish to integrate their vehicle into their solar energy production,and the ongoing performance and functioning of the system can be monitored through a dedicated app.Founded 20172,400 employeesTotal raised:$687.9 over four dealsLast financing valuation:$228.4M in Series D fundingPost-money valuation:$2.6BFirst institutional round:Undisclosed amount of seed fundingOf all VC-backed solar-focused companies,Enpal is at the top by total VC raised,following its$228.4 million Series D funding in January 2023.The Series D funding will be used to continue their existing growth plan while also expanding into new markets.In May 2023,the company announced a partnership with Bosch to expand its product offerings to include heat pumps.16 Enpal made a profit for the first time in 2022,with revenue of more than 400 million.17Leadership

technologiesResidential solar energy is one of the few ways for individuals to access renewable energy,as most other renewable energy technologies face installation or construction challenges at residential scales or are simply too large to be viable.This limits the competing technologies for rooftop solar panels,so companies in the space tend to compete on economics of installations as well as business modelsincluding buying versus leasing and add-on capabilities such as battery storage,virtual power plant participation,and EV charging integration.Enpal initially focused on leasing rather than selling solar infrastructure,and this is still the core financing option for its product.Leasing provides another option compared with companies that offer only purchasing options,Series

are often mitigated through financing,either through a partner of the solar provider or in some cases through the provider itself.From the perspective of home energy efficiency,solar thermal installations can be used to reduce energy consumptionparticularly for water heatingthough this competes with solar photovoltaics only tangentially,as home solar thermal does not generate electricity that can be used,stored,or sent back to the power grid.Additionally,energy efficiency improvements such as ground-and air-source heat pumps can be used to reduce energy consumption,but these are not mutually exclusive with solar photovoltaics and are frequently installed alongside each other.About PitchBook Emerging Tech ResearchIndependent,objective,and timely market intelAs the private markets
