Revenue model
- Electricity Trading (Elhandel): Boo Energi sells electricity to residential and business customers through multiple product tiers: BooPortföljen (portfolio-managed variable pricing), Rörligt kvartspris (quarterly spot pricing), and Bundet elpris (fixed-price contracts of 1, 2, or 3 years). Revenue is generated through a monthly fee plus a per-kWh charge based on Nord Pool spot prices plus markup, el certificates, and renewable energy surcharge.
- Electricity Grid Distribution (Elnät): As the local grid operator in Saltsjö-Boo and parts of Värmdö/Vaxholm, Boo Energi charges customers a fixed monthly fee based on fuse size (16A-63A) plus a variable transfer fee per kWh. The company also earns revenue from connection fees for new properties and service modifications.
- Energy Services: The company sells and installs solar panel systems, battery storage units (Huawei Luna, Ferroamp), EV charging stations (Zaptec Go/Go2), and provides energy advisory services to residential and business customers. Revenue includes both product sales and installation fees.
- Microproduction (Överskottsel): Boo Energi purchases excess solar electricity from microproducers at spot price plus 13.3 öre/kWh (for Boo Energi-installed systems) or spot price minus 3.3 öre/kWh (for third-party systems). The company also pays network benefit compensation (nätnytta) of 8.0 öre/kWh to microproducers.
