Norsk Solkraft AS

What Norsk Solkraft AS does

Norsk Solkraft AS is a Norwegian solar energy company headquartered in Tonstad, Sirdal, that delivers turnkey photovoltaic and battery storage systems for commercial buildings, public institutions, and off-grid sites across Southern Norway. Its core offering, 'Solkraft på tak' (Solar on Roof), is paired with three adjacent services: a web-based Infoskjerm real-time production dashboard, a Driftsovervåking monitoring subscription, and a proprietary SDE optimization model that runs 8,760 hourly linear programming optimizations per year (HiGHS solver) to size and control LiFePO4 battery storage for peak shaving, increased self-consumption, and spot arbitrage. The company has completed over 85 solar and battery installations since 2018 across commercial, public, and off-grid segments.

The technology stack integrates Victron Professional-certified hardware (MultiPlus-II inverter/charger, MPPT SmartSolar charge controller, Cerbo GX with touchscreen, VRM remote monitoring portal) with multi-brand inverter support (Growatt, Afore, Huawei, SMA, Fronius, SolarEdge), and uses PVGIS satellite data from the EU Joint Research Centre to power the publicly accessible Solkalkulator planning tool. Pre-built off-grid Kraftpakke cabinets in weatherproof enclosures and hybrid solutions extend the addressable market into remote or weak-grid locations where full grid upgrades would cost NOK 200,000–500,000.

The business model combines project-based professional services revenue (commercial solar installations typically 70–294 kWp, with flagship projects including a 294 kWp Texaco-building installation and 232 kWp school installation) with recurring monitoring subscriptions, battery hardware sales, and standardized EV charger bundles. Pricing for commercial work is consultation-based; residential EV chargers (Amina NOK 8,995; Zaptec Go NOK 13,995) carry fixed pricing with Enova subsidies covering up to 60% of battery systems and up to NOK 10,000 for smart EV chargers. The company operates through direct consultative sales with site visits in its home region of Agder, Rogaland, and Vestfold og Telemark, and extends national reach through an Ahlsell distribution partnership.

Others

• Victron Energy B.V. Dutch manufacturer of off-grid and hybrid power conversion equipment (MultiPlus-II, SmartSolar, Cerbo GX) used in Norsk Solkraft's off-grid Kraftpakke solutions; comparable as the core enabling technology partner whose products and VRM monitoring portal are the foundation of the company's off-grid offering.
• SolarEdge Technologies: Global inverter and module-level power electronics supplier for residential and commercial solar; comparable as a technology supplier whose inverters Norsk Solkraft explicitly integrates into its Infoskjerm dashboard and whose products compete in the same Norwegian C&I specification decisions.

Broad incumbents

• Multiconsult Norge AS: Large Norwegian engineering consultancy active in renewable energy project development, grid studies, and owner's engineering; comparable in that it serves overlapping C&I and public-sector clients in Southern Norway and performs technical studies for solar/storage projects, though at a much larger and more diversified scale.
• Schneider Electric SE: Global energy management and automation company with solar inverters, battery storage, and monitoring software; comparable as a broad incumbent whose products (inverters, monitoring platforms) overlap with Norsk Solkraft's monitoring, EV charging, and storage offerings for commercial buildings.
• Eaton Corporation: Global power management manufacturer with a strong portfolio in backup power, power conversion, and energy storage; comparable because it supplies the underlying inverters, switchgear, and battery systems that Norsk Solkraft integrates into commercial solar and off-grid installations.
• Otovo ASA: Listed Norwegian residential and commercial solar installer with a national footprint and subscription-style solar offering; comparable because both companies deliver turnkey solar PV systems to Norwegian property owners and monetize via installation plus long-term service contracts, though Otovo operates at significantly greater scale.
• Å Energi AS: Regional Norwegian utility covering Agder and surrounding counties with growing renewable energy and distributed generation activities; comparable because it operates in the same Southern Norway service area and is increasingly active in behind-the-meter solar, EV charging, and energy services to C&I customers.
• Fjordkraft (Lyse Energi): Norwegian retail electricity supplier that has expanded into solar panels and EV charging for households and businesses; comparable as a Southern-Norway-adjacent energy brand crossing into distributed solar generation, though primarily a power retailer rather than an installer.

Direct peers

• Solcellespesialisten: Norwegian solar installer focused on commercial, agricultural, and residential projects with in-house engineering and battery storage offerings; directly comparable as a similarly sized Norwegian EPC targeting the same C&I roof segment, with overlapping product portfolio including solar+battery and monitoring.
• Greenstat AS: Norwegian renewable energy company developing solar, battery storage, and EV charging projects for commercial and public-sector clients; directly comparable as a Norwegian specialist delivering integrated solar+battery solutions with proprietary energy management components to similar public and C&I customers.
