Solkraft

What Solkraft does

Solkraft Sverige (legal entity Solkraft EMK AB) is a Swedish solar energy installation company founded in 2014 and headquartered in Mölndal, Västra Götaland. The company designs, sells, and installs solar photovoltaic systems for residential homeowners, housing cooperatives (BRF), agricultural operations, and commercial customers across central and southern Sweden, covering from Stockholm to Gothenburg to Malmö with SEO-optimized landing pages for 60+ cities. Its core technology stack combines solar PV with battery storage (predominantly Emaldo AI-powered hybrid inverters, plus Solinteg, Enershare, Eway, and Sigenergy products), EV charging stations (Zaptec, Easee, Charge Amps, Garo, Wallbox, Defa), and integration with Stödtjänster (grid services) via Svenska kraftnät, enabling customers to earn recurring compensation by making battery capacity available for grid balancing under a 36-month locked-in program.

Solkraft operates a hybrid go-to-market model combining direct-to-consumer field sales, free home visits, a commission-based regional sales agent network across at least 9 Swedish regions, and a customer referral program paying 2,000 SEK bonuses. Revenue is primarily generated through one-time turnkey installation sales (packages ranging from 37,200 SEK for basic battery systems to 116,000 SEK for full integrated solar+battery+EV charger packages), supplemented by recurring service contracts, remote monitoring subscriptions, and transaction fees from excess solar energy sold back to the grid. The company has achieved over 10,000 cumulative installations and is one of Sweden's largest resellers of Emaldo energy storage systems, with notable projects including a 620 kW housing cooperative installation in Malmö (Brf Oxiegården) and a 145 kW project in Lund (Brf Solhöjden).

The business is privately held with no disclosed external funding rounds, founder/management-controlled ownership under CEO Peter Olsen, agricultural safety certifications (Säker Gård, LBK), and a 5.0/5 Trustpilot rating. The small internal team (CEO, support, finance) plus commissioned regional agents and subcontracted electrical contractors (e.g., Bravida El) supports a capital-light scaling model heavily dependent on Swedish green tax deductions (grön avdrag) and the continued regulatory framework for grid services revenue.

Scale indicators4 records

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights6 records

Direct peers

• Otovo: Norwegian-headquartered residential solar subscription and installer operating across the Nordics (including Sweden). Directly comparable business model — solar + battery + EV charging delivered to homeowners — and the most relevant publicly listed peer in the space.
• Svea Solar: Swedish residential and commercial solar installer headquartered in Stockholm. Closest direct competitor to Solkraft Sverige — same villaägare/BRF/lantbruk segments, same Emaldo-anchored product stack, and broader national coverage.
• Greenely: Swedish energy app and solar-battery installer targeting villaägare with integrated electricity management. Comparable residential solar-plus-smart-energy proposition and shared reliance on grid-services economics.
• Soltech Energy: Swedish-listed solar installer and energy solutions provider serving residential, commercial, and agricultural customers. Comparable go-to-market (solar + battery + EV charging) and overlapping customer segments in Sweden.

Broad incumbents

• E.ON Sverige: Swedish arm of European energy group E.ON, selling solar panels, batteries, EV chargers, and electricity contracts to households. Overlapping residential offering but competes as part of a full utility proposition rather than as a focused installer.
• Vattenfall: Major Swedish state-owned utility offering rooftop solar, batteries, and EV charging to households and businesses. Broad incumbent competing for the same villaägare wallet as Solkraft, though solar is one product line within a much larger portfolio.

Others

• Eliq: Sweden-based energy data platform for utilities, installers, and homeowners. Adjacent ecosystem player that supports solar installers and energy service providers with monitoring and customer engagement tools — relevant partner/enabler rather than a direct installer competitor.
• Svea Solar (IKEA partnership) / IKEA Home Solar: IKEA's residential solar offering (historically powered by Svea Solar) targets Swedish homeowners with solar-as-a-service. Adjacent ecosystem participant — competes for the same homeowner mindshare via a major retail brand rather than directly comparable GTM.

Regional players

• Nordic Solar: Danish solar PV developer and operator focused on larger commercial, industrial, and utility-scale projects across the Nordics. Adjacent rather than direct — comparable solar EPC capability but serves different geographies and project sizes.
• Better Energy: Danish solar developer building utility-scale and commercial ground-mount projects across the Nordics and Northern Europe. Comparable solar EPC capability and Nordic market exposure but focused on large-scale ground-mount rather than rooftop residential.
