Digital energy hub strengthens solar industry
Solarify has received a guarantee from the Technology Fund for the further development of its Digital Energy Hub. The Abendrot Foundation is also involved. The developer and operator of swarm-financed solar systems wants to use the platform to make the systems more efficient and economical.
The Swiss Federal Technology Fund has granted Solarify a guarantee. Together with the commitment of the Abendrot Foundation, the developer and operator of swarm-financed solar systems based in Wabern will be able to further develop its Digital Energy Hub, according to a press release.
The Solarify Digital Energy Hub is used for the intelligent management and optimisation of solar systems in a flexible energy system. It aims to integrate the systems into a sustainable and stable energy system.
Solarify’s business model enables interested parties to invest in solar energy without having to build and own solar systems themselves. A system is realised as soon as enough investors have been found for the project. Solarify takes care of the maintenance of the systems and markets the electricity produced. Every three months, the participants receive a share of the profits from the sale of electricity.
