## About

Founded in 2019 by co-founders Pedro Rio, Rodrigo Camargo, and Victor Copque and based in Sao Paulo, Brazil, Clarke Desenvolvimento de Softwares Ltda, also known as Clarke Energia, provides a marketplace platform facilitating the migration of businesses to the complimentary electricity market in Brazil to secure lower electricity bills for SMEs (small and medium enterprises). In March 2024, Energisa acquired Clarke Desenvolvimento de Softwares Ltda from EDP Ventures, Canary, CSN Inova Ventures, and Niu Ventures. 

Clarke offers a comprehensive suite of energy management services designed to optimize energy costs for businesses. The company offers a marketplace platform, which allows companies to compare energy prices from multiple suppliers. The platform also includes tools for energy consumption analysis, savings simulations, and detailed reporting. Clarke handles the energy procurement process, including the bureaucratic elements of switching to the energy market. Additionally, the firm provides ongoing management services, ensuring that businesses continue to benefit from optimal energy pricing and consumption patterns.
