What H. Venema Technisch Bedrijf does

H. Venema Technisch Bedrijf B.V. is a privately held Dutch energy systems company founded in 2003 by Trudy and Hans Venema in Arnhem, the Netherlands. The company designs, distributes, and commissions energy storage and DC power systems for marine, automotive (commercial vehicle outfitters and camper builders), construction, residential, and infrastructure customers, alongside a wholly-owned e-mobility subsidiary (Venema E-mobility Charge Systems B.V., since 2017) that develops DC fast-charging hardware. Core technology is built on Victron Energy platforms (officially distributed in the Netherlands), augmented by proprietary products designed and assembled in the Netherlands: the All-in-One Cabinet plug-and-play home battery, Industrial Battery Pack (IBP), Industrial Backup Unit (IBU) for traffic-light UPS, Hybrid Battery System (HBS), EVDC FLEX 85 mobile 85 kW DC fast charger, Ultra Power Charger DC-DC (60-720 kW), and Energy Mobility Hub. Distribution covers multi-brand batteries (TAB, Discover, MG Energy Systems, Voltsmile) and accessories via the venematech.shop webshop with B2B account pricing.

The company's business model combines technical wholesale (hardware resale to B2B accounts and consumer webshop customers), project-based engineering services (A-to-Z design, commissioning, documentation, service and maintenance), and recurring training programs covering Victron ESS, lithium batteries, marine, automotive, and Node-RED. Go-to-market is sales-led with B2B account management, supplemented by event-driven demand generation (Solar Solutions Amsterdam, Nationale Netcongestiedag), LinkedIn/Facebook organic content, and on-site installer training. Pricing is project-specific: webshop list pricing for standardized products, personalized B2B discount terms on approved accounts, and bespoke quotations for engineered systems. The customer base spans Dutch government (Rijkswaterstaat for VRI backup power), enterprise (Connexxion, Vialis, Wensink Inbouw, Veth Automotive, De Leeuw Bouw), installers (BVo Advies, SolarPlus, Hoppenbrouwers Techniek, TeamB), education (HAN Hogeschool, Liemers College), and offshore/marine operators (BvdM Technisch Service, 4x4electric).

Ownership is fully concentrated in the founding family (Trudy, Hans, Melvin, and Nick Venema); there are no disclosed external investors, funding rounds, or parent entities. Operations remain intentionally small (1-10 employees) and run from a single headquarters and service center in Arnhem, with execution of larger installation projects handled through a network of implementation partners (BVo, SolarPlus, Hoppenbrouwers, Jomitech, Cuppers Carrosserieën, BvdM).
