Battery Ventures of Waltham, MA, said today that it has completed an $8 million Series A funding round for GreenBytes, an Ashaway, RI, startup specializing in energy-efficient storage devices that reduce storage requirements through data deduplication. Xconomy reported the funding in May, based on a regulatory filing.
