Aksa Solar

What Aksa Solar does

Aksa Solar is a Turkish solar energy solutions provider operating under the legal entity Aksa Müşteri Çözümleri A.Ş., a subsidiary of Kazancı Holding, a diversified Turkish conglomerate with roots in the energy sector since the 1950s. The company designs, finances, installs, and operates commercial and industrial photovoltaic (PV) systems across Turkey, with a disclosed portfolio of approximately 19 projects totaling ~17 MWp of installed capacity spanning manufacturing, agriculture, retail, mining, hospitality, and government segments. Its core technology stack consists of PV panels, inverters, mounting structures, cabling, and electrical infrastructure, supplemented by drone-based site surveys for technical assessment and SCADA/OSOS remote monitoring for ongoing system performance tracking.

The company operates two distinct business models under a single brand: the ESCO (Energy Performance Contract) model, under which Aksa finances, installs, and operates the system with performance guarantees while the customer pays from energy production revenue without upfront capital, and the EPC (Engineering, Procurement, Construction) model, under which the project is handed over to the customer for self-operation with optional maintenance. Both models include a 5-step installation workflow from technical evaluation through commissioning, with ongoing operations and maintenance under ESCO including ionized pure water panel cleaning.

Aksa Solar monetizes customer acquisitions primarily through direct B2B field sales, leveraging its website (aksasolar.com.tr), a YouTube channel, and a referral pipeline via Kazancı Holding sister companies including Aksa Enerji (Turkey's largest independent power producer), Aksa Elektrik, Aksa Doğalgaz, and Aksa Jeneratör. Operations are entirely domestic to Turkey, with no disclosed international revenue, no external funding, no M&A activity, no patents, and a headcount of only 6 employees, indicating that execution is heavily supported by the parent group's resources rather than internal scale.

Revenue model

1. ESCO (Energy Performance Contract) Model: Aksa provides end-to-end solar energy solutions where the company finances the project, assumes all technical and financial risks, and receives payment linked to energy production performance. Customers benefit from reduced energy costs without upfront capital expenditure.
2. EPC (Engineering, Procurement, Construction) Model: Traditional project-based model where Aksa designs and installs the solar energy system, after which the customer takes ownership and operational responsibility. Aksa may provide optional maintenance and repair services.
3. Electricity Sales (Net Metering): Customers can sell excess electricity produced by their solar systems back to the grid through monthly netting and grid sale guarantees, providing additional revenue streams.

Core offering

Aksa Solar designs, finances, installs, and operates turnkey solar photovoltaic (PV) energy systems for commercial, industrial, and institutional customers across Turkey. The company offers two primary contracting models—an ESCO (Energy Performance Contract) under which Aksa finances and maintains the system with revenue tied to energy production, and an EPC (Engineering, Procurement, Construction) model in which the customer takes ownership after installation. End-to-end services include technical assessment, proposal, drone-based site survey, permitting, installation, and ongoing operations and maintenance.

Product overview

Aksa Solar, operated by Aksa Müşteri Çözümleri A.Ş. under Kazancı Holding, offers comprehensive solar energy solutions as a single unified product portfolio. The core offerings consist of two business models: the ESCO (Energy Performance Contract) model where Aksa fully finances, installs, and manages the solar system with performance guarantees, and the EPC model where Aksa handles installation and the customer assumes operational responsibility. Both models provide end-to-end services including technical assessment, design, procurement, permitting, installation, and ongoing operation and maintenance. The company also offers standalone Operation and Maintenance Services as an add-on for EPC customers.
