Milestone for our partner Solarify: the 10-megawatt mark has been cracked
Swiss company Solarify has reached a significant milestone: with over 10 megawatts of installed solar capacity on 120 systems, it is an important driver of the energy transition. Solarify enables citizens and companies to invest in solar power without having to operate their own system.
Market development: Solarify as a pioneer in crowdfunded solar projects
Solarify has raised more than CHF 20 million in investments from over 1600 participants. The company rents suitable roof space, installs solar systems there and shares benefits with the owners through a premium and locally generated solar power. This model demonstrates how collectively financed energy projects can advance decentralized power supply and facilitate access to renewable energy.
Economic development: Crowdfunding as a driver of the energy transition
Solarify’s business model offers investors regular returns. Every quarter, participants receive a share of the power sales revenue. Panels can be flexibly resold or offered to Solarify for buyback. Roof space owners benefit from a rental premium and locally produced solar power.
The economic attractiveness and stability of this model has made Solarify an important player in the Swiss solar market. Learn more about Solarify’s business model at www.solarify.ch
Technologies: How battery storage further increases the benefits of solar infrastructure
While previously relying almost exclusively on direct grid feed-in, the integration of battery storage systems opens up new potential. Peak loads could be covered with excess solar power by storing it and using it during peak times. With intermediate storage, local grid congestion could be avoided, and strategic marketing of the power would lead to higher prices.
The combination of solar power and battery storage can further increase the attractiveness and economic benefits of investments. Get advice on investment opportunities now.
