Helexia Portugal

What Helexia Portugal does

Helexia Portugal (legal entity Helexia II Energy Services, LDA.) is a Lisbon-headquartered energy services company that designs, finances, implements, and operates integrated decarbonization solutions for Portuguese commercial and industrial clients. Operating with 52 employees, the company runs an enterprise B2B go-to-market with no resellers, engaging directly with decision-makers at large retailers, manufacturers, hospitality groups, and food processors across continental Portugal and the islands.

Its product stack is organized around four pillars: (1) Solar Self-Consumption and Storage (rooftop, carport, ground-mounted, battery storage, retrofit, and ongoing monitoring/maintenance); (2) Electric Mobility (private and public EV charging networks integrated with Mobi.E, plus a combined cooling and charging "Chill & Charge" offering); (3) Engineering for Energy Efficiency (compressed air, HVAC, LED lighting, thermal energy optimization, custom projects, and flexible industrial insulation under the e+Jackets line); and (4) Energy Management, anchored by the proprietary e+Monitor real-time monitoring platform and an Energy Management as a Service offering. A sub-brand, Ewen by Helexia (ewen.energy), packages energy audits, management, and efficiency services for the broader mid-market.

The business model is an Energy as a Service / Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) construct in which Helexia funds the capital expenditure of solar PV and EV charging installations and recoups it over 15-year contracts through energy production payments and savings-share arrangements. Cumulatively the company reports 70 MWp of installed renewable capacity, 151 GWh of clean energy produced, and 59,301 tonnes of CO2 avoided. Pricing is bespoke and quote-based; revenue streams blend subscription/recurring (EaaS PPAs), managed services (solar operations and maintenance), transaction fees (EV charging usage), and project-based professional services (efficiency engineering and audits).

Revenue model

1. Energy as a Service (EaaS): Full-service energy solution where Helexia designs, implements, funds, and operates energy projects for clients. Clients pay for energy services rather than capital investment, typically through long-term contracts (15-year PPAs mentioned). Revenue comes from energy production and savings generated for clients.
2. Solar Photovoltaic Installation and Operation: Installation and ongoing operation of solar PV systems for client facilities. Revenue generated through energy production contracts, performance guarantees, and maintenance services.
3. EV Charging Infrastructure: Installation and operation of electric vehicle charging stations, generating revenue through charging services and potential revenue sharing with venue partners.
4. Energy Efficiency Services: Engineering and implementation services for energy optimization including relighting, HVAC upgrades, compressed air systems, and thermal energy optimization. Revenue through project fees and performance-based contracts.

Core offering

Helexia Portugal is an energy services company that designs, implements, manages, and invests in integrated decarbonization solutions for industrial and commercial clients in Portugal. Its core offering is 'Energy as a Service' — turnkey delivery of solar PV self-consumption and storage installations, electric mobility (EV charging) infrastructure, energy management and monitoring (e+Monitor), and engineering for energy efficiency (HVAC, compressed air, lighting, thermal optimization, e+Jackets insulation), typically financed through 15-year Power Purchase Agreements that eliminate client capex.

Product overview

Helexia Portugal is an energy services company that designs, implements, manages, and invests in integrated energy solutions for industrial and commercial decarbonization. The core offering combines Energy as a Service with multiple specialized services organized into four main categories: (1) Solar Self-Consumption & Storage (including ground-mounted, carport solar, photovoltaic roofing, solar batteries, monitoring/maintenance, and retrofit solar); (2) Electric Mobility (private network charging, public network charging, and Chill & Charge); (3) Engineering for Energy Efficiency (compressed air, air conditioning, efficient lighting, thermal energy optimization, and custom projects); and (4) Energy Management (e+Monitor and Energy Management as a Service). The company also operates Ewen by Helexia as a sub-brand focused on energy audits and flexible industrial insulation (e+Jackets). Helexia provides end-to-end services from auditing through implementation and ongoing operation, often financing projects under PPA (Power Purchase Agreement) models.
