NOTUS energy

What NOTUS energy does

NOTUS energy is a privately held German renewable energy project developer headquartered in Potsdam, founded in 2001 and operating across 13 countries in Europe and Latin America. The firm provides end-to-end services for wind, solar, and battery storage projects — from project conception and feasibility, through environmental permitting, financing arrangement, construction, and grid connection, into long-term operations and asset management. Core products span wind energy development (1,796 MW realized, 4,248 MW in development), solar PV development (1,339 MWp in development), and battery storage systems (2,862 MWh in development), supported by repowering services for older wind farms and remote maintenance capabilities.

The business operates on two revenue streams: project development and EPC/general contractor (Generalübernehmer) services for one-time project fees on each installation, plus recurring operations management and asset management for commissioned projects. NOTUS executes through four wholly-owned subsidiaries covering planning (Plan), construction (Construction), service/operations (Service), and project development (Development), with an in-house interdisciplinary team of engineers, geographers, environmental scientists, ornithologists, finance experts, and in-house legal counsel (Syndikusrechtsanwälte). The firm is privately owned and controlled by Managing Directors Heiner Röger and Madeleine Roßberg-Schwarz.

Customer segments span municipalities and local communities (engaged for project acceptance), landowners (lease counterparties for sites), other project developers (EPC/partner relationships), operators of existing installations (asset management clients), and institutional/financial investors. Customer acquisition is direct, long-cycle enterprise sales anchored by local relationships in each country of operation, supported by an extensive office network and multilingual website presence. The firm has secured development finance institution backing from EBRD (€65M senior loan), IFC, DEG (€5M UkraineConnect), Horizon Capital's Catalyst Fund, and Green for Growth Fund, most prominently for a 120 MW wind farm under development in Ukraine's Odesa region with total project costs of €231.4 million.
