Estonian Cleantech Demo Centre

Estonian Cleantech
Demo Centre

Estonian Cleantech Demo Centre exhibits and introduces Estonian cleantech startups’ products and services.

Sunly and Cleantech ForEst created the center to showcase solutions invented in Estonia to minimize the environmental footprint and pollution. Sunly is a renewable energy company that produces clean energy and invests in startups. Cleantech ForEst is an Estonian non-profit that supports and funds early stage green technology startups.

The Estonian Cleantech Demo Centre is physically located in the cleantech hub Port of Power in Pirita, Tallinn but you can find us also here online, providing a database of Estonian cleantech startups.

This project is financed by the European Regional
Development Fund according to the program Startup Estonia (EU50651)
