Energy Expert Team Company (EETCO) Emerges as a Pioneer in Commercial Energy Efficiency

In the constantly evolving world of commercial energy efficiency, Energy Expert Team Company (EETCO) is emerging as a pioneer with an innovative approach. Since its founding in 2022, EETCO has distinguished itself by optimizing commercial space lighting through innovative solutions. By integrating cutting-edge sensors, the startup not only reduces energy waste but also analyzes customer behavior to improve their in-store experience.

In this interview with Managers, Mohammed Bouhlel, co-founder of EETCO, shares the innovations brought by the startup and its future ambitions in a constantly evolving market.

Tell me about EETCO.

EETCO was created in September 2022. We offer energy efficiency solutions for the commercial sector (stores, showrooms, shopping centers). Our commercial lighting control system allows for minimizing energy waste and analyzing customer behavior in stores through sensors integrated into existing lighting points in the commercial space.

What sets this startup apart from its competitors? In other words, what is your "Selling point"?

Our "Selling point" is that we differentiate ourselves by focusing on the commercial sector, whereas other companies in the field are primarily focused on the industrial sector, such as factories.

Does your startup offer its services only in Tunisia? If so, do you plan to expand abroad?

For now, EETCO offers its services only at the national level. However, we plan to expand abroad once the solution is validated in the local market. The energy waste issues we are trying to minimize in Tunisia are also present on an international scale.

What is the actual revenue growth for 2024 compared to 2023 so far, given that this year is not yet over?

To date, the growth between 2023 and 2024 is around 60%.

Have you organized a fundraising campaign?

Currently, we have not yet conducted a fundraising campaign, but we plan to do so in the coming months.
