What Solar does
Soolar Solenergi AB is a Swedish solar energy installer founded in 2020 by a solar panel installer from Norrbotten and two associates. Operating as a full-service solar PV installation provider, the company supplies and installs monocrystalline solar panel systems, battery storage, EV chargers, and smart energy management for private and commercial customers across Sweden, with all in-house personnel consolidated in Göteborg and field installation staff working nationwide. Soolar has completed more than 3,000 installations covering over 120,000 m² of solar panels and is authorized by the Swedish Electrical Safety Board (Elsäkerhetsverket) to perform grid-tied electrical installations.
The core product is a modular PV system comprising monocrystalline panels, Esdec mounting hardware, SAJ combined inverter–battery units, power optimizers, and optional Pixii industrial battery cabinets (10 kW to 1 MW). Soolar differentiates through vertical integration of the install chain with its own staff, direct procurement from manufacturers to avoid intermediaries, and an exclusive focus on higher-efficiency monocrystalline panels. Strategic partnerships anchor the stack: CheckWatt for FCR-D frequency-regulation and balance services, Pixii for industrial-scale storage, Zaptec for EV charging (Zaptec Go), Enequi for smart energy management and peak shaving, Esdec for mounting, and Svea for consumer financing at 4.95%. Customers access Sweden's Grön Teknik tax deduction (15% on solar, 50% on batteries/EV) via direct invoice reductions.
The business model is project-based, sales-led, and segmented into four packages—Villapaket (residential villas and holiday homes, the primary segment), BRF Paket (housing cooperatives), Företagspaket (commercial and industrial properties), and Lantbrukspaket (agricultural properties). Revenue is generated primarily from one-time installation fees at approximately 12,000 SEK per installed kW, supplemented by post-installation service. Distribution is direct-to-customer, driven by trained project planners, a multi-step online quote funnel, and an extensive content-marketing knowledge bank; word-of-mouth referrals are explicitly identified as a channel. Average customer savings are around 20,000 SEK per year, with annual returns of 10-20% on solar investments and 30-70% on battery investments.

- E.ON Sverige: Large Swedish energy utility offering solar PV, battery, and EV charging as part of a broader energy retail portfolio. Overlaps with Soolar on residential/commercial solar but competes as part of a wider utility product suite.
Direct peers
- Svea Solar: Major Swedish solar installer offering residential and commercial rooftop solar plus battery storage. Directly competes with Soolar on Swedish villa, BRF, and commercial rooftop installations.
- Solkompaniet: Swedish solar installer serving residential and commercial customers. Directly comparable to Soolar on customer base, geographic scope, and bundled solar + battery + EV offerings.
- Krafthem: Swedish solar installation company serving residential and commercial customers, comparable to Soolar in scope and customer segments within the domestic Swedish market.
- Otovo: Nordic subscription-based residential solar installer operating in Sweden, Norway, and other markets. Closely comparable to Soolar on customer target (villa owners), bundled offering (panels, battery, EV charger), and digital-led GTM.
