What Samsamcollectief.nl B.v. does

SamSam Energie & Installatie (legal entity Samsamcollectief.nl B.v.) is a Dutch social enterprise founded in 2015 and headquartered in Utrecht that delivers an integrated residential energy stack directly to homeowners and small businesses across the Netherlands. The company sells and installs solar panels (Denim partner, 35-year warranty, ~€5,000 average installation), home batteries across 3-36 kWh capacity from brands including HYXiPOWER, Sessy, ATMOCE, Bliq, AlphaESS, and Sigenergy (€1,875-€16,750), Weheat heat pumps (Flint/Sparrow/Blackbird, €4,450-€7,650), Mitsubishi air conditioning (€1,500-€4,500), and home EV chargers. Layered on top of the hardware is a dynamic energy contract at €7.99/month per connection that sources electricity and gas from Dutch renewables at cost price, with hourly EPEX and daily LEBA/TTF pricing delivered through a smartphone app. The platform combines a smart battery controller that automatically trades on the wholesale market, reportedly delivering €42-€124 in monthly customer savings and 60-80% energy independence.

SamSam operates an exclusively direct-to-consumer GTM: customers start with a free telephone intake and roof check, receive an on-site technical survey and personalized quote, then installation by SamSam's own certified teams and partner installers nationwide. The company also runs a zakelijk (business) segment for commercial solar and storage, and since 2024 a Cape Town subsidiary executing residential solar, battery, and off-grid installations along with social projects in South Africa, Kenya, Congo, Uganda, Malawi, Zimbabwe, Ethiopia, Albania, and Haiti, with €210,328.52 in cumulative donations (2015-2025) through eight CBF-recognized charity partners. Revenue mechanics are dominated by one-time hardware-plus-installation sales (€1,500-€16,750 per ticket), supplemented by a thin €7.99/month recurring energy subscription, a sustainable loan financing product (~€70/month), and the South African installation arm. No external funding rounds have been disclosed; growth has been entirely organic, with a small core team of ~7 named Netherlands staff and a Cape Town installation unit.
