Google selected 28 artificial-intelligence energy startups for North American and European accelerators focused on efficiency and grid modernization.

Google selected 28 AI-and-energy startups for accelerator programs in North America and Europe. The companies form the 2026 accelerator cohort.

The programs focus on using artificial intelligence to improve energy efficiency and advance electric-grid modernization. The supplied source does not list the individual startups or divide the 28 selections by region.

No investment amount, equity terms, program duration or commercial deployment commitments were included in the source. The announcement therefore establishes selection for accelerator participation, not financing or customer contracts.
