Energia Fuera de Red

What Energia Fuera de Red does

Energia Fuera de Red (legal entity Energia FDR S.A.S.) is a Colombian solar energy engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) firm founded in 2015 and headquartered in Santa Marta, with a second office in Barranquilla. The company designs and installs photovoltaic systems across three configurations — grid-tied (on-grid), standalone battery-backed (off-grid), and hybrid — for residential, commercial/industrial, hospitality, agricultural, and community infrastructure customers. Its technical differentiator is solar water pumping: systems ranging from 2 HP to 200 HP motors used for palm and banana irrigation, livestock watering, and rural acueductos, anchored by an exclusive South American partnership with German pump manufacturer Lorentz.

The company operates a project-based revenue model: each engagement is scoped via on-site assessment, custom-designed, and quoted individually, with no standardized pricing tiers disclosed. Revenue streams include one-time system installation (hardware supply plus installation labor), recurring maintenance services (panel cleaning, inverter upkeep, battery maintenance), and technical consulting (feasibility studies, RETIE/NTC 2050/Ley 1715 compliance advisory). Go-to-market is direct enterprise field sales from two physical offices supplemented by field-sales coverage across eight Costa Caribe departments (Magdalena, Atlántico, Bolívar, Cesar, Guajira, Sucre, Córdoba), supported by a content-marketing presence on the fueradered.com website, YouTube, and social channels.

The customer base of 100+ completed projects skews toward Colombian Caribbean agribusiness (palm, banana, livestock) and rural community water systems, with secondary exposure to eco-tourism hotels, the Cámara de Comercio de Santa Marta, and SMB residential off-grid properties. The company is privately held, founder-operated (with María Victoria Vives Serrano and Hugo Serrano Daza as principals), has 1–10 employees, and has not disclosed funding rounds, revenue, or institutional investors in the source data.

Broad incumbents

• Celsia: Major Colombian energy company (part of Grupo Argos) with a growing solar generation and distributed generation business across Colombia. Overlaps with Energia Fuera de Red on commercial and industrial solar installations but operates at much larger scale and broader geographic footprint.
• EPM (Empresas Públicas de Medellín): Large Colombian multi-utility with solar generation projects and distributed energy programs. Comparable on solar EPC activity but with vastly greater capital, customer base, and geographic reach across Colombia.
• Enel Colombia (formerly Codensa): Major Colombian electricity distribution and generation utility with solar programs for residential and commercial customers. Overlaps with Energia Fuera de Red's on-grid residential and commercial solar offering but as a broad utility rather than a specialized installer.
• Trina Solar: Global solar module manufacturer with growing LATAM presence, including Colombia. Comparable through downstream solar deployment but operates primarily as a component supplier rather than regional EPC.

Direct peers

• Proeléctricos & CIA: Colombian solar EPC company that designs and installs photovoltaic systems for residential, commercial, and industrial customers. Directly comparable business model (project-based installation, custom design, regulatory compliance) serving the Colombian market.
• Automa Colombia: Colombian solar energy integrator offering on-grid, off-grid, and hybrid PV installations. Closely comparable service portfolio and target segments (residential, commercial, industrial) within Colombia.
• Gransolar: Latin American solar EPC and developer with utility-scale and distributed generation projects across the region. Comparable in solar EPC execution but operates at materially larger project sizes and across multiple LATAM geographies.
• Inversiones CGR: Colombian solar installer focused on residential and commercial PV systems, including net metering and battery backup. Comparable service offering, customer segments, and project-based revenue model within the Colombian market.

Emerging players

• SunSupply Colombia: Colombian solar equipment distributor and installer offering PV kits and turnkey installations. Comparable on residential and small commercial solar delivery, though primarily product-led rather than fully custom EPC.

Others

• Lorentz: German solar pump technology company and Energia Fuera de Red's strategic partner. Comparable through solar pumping systems for agriculture and community water; relevant as the upstream technology provider that defines part of the anchor's differentiated offering.
