A NEW FOUNDATION FOR THE GRID
Is this the most legit energy company to ever enter crypto?
Fuse is a $300M ARR UK utility powering 200,000+ homes - and now it’s launching The Energy Network, a new digital layer engineered to scale our grids and save billions in costs.
It’s real infrastructure, not speculation - connecting homes and devices to make power smarter, cheaper, and more efficient.
One of the highest-revenue DePIN projects in crypto - and it’s still pre-launch.
