    Provider

    Your regular provider covers the rest

    The only thing that changes

    You now pay less for part of your electricity. → The more we grow, the higher the share of energy consumption we cover → The cheaper it is for you.

    Grid electricity is expensive.

    • Prices are rising every year.
    • You pay the full tariff with no alternatives.
    • You pay whatever the provider decides.

    Solar electricity is complex.

    • High upfront cost for panel installation.
    • Energy communities are complex to manage.
    • Not possible for renters or many homeowners.

    Local Solar at a Lower Price

    We partner with local solar producers to generate clean energy at a fraction of the cost of traditional fossil fuels. These savings are passed directly to you.

    Zero Effort Needed

    No panels on your roof. No maintenance. No upfront costs. Just sign up digitally and join our energy community. We handle all the operations and technical logistics.
