Solarise Energy

What Solarise Energy does

Solarise Energy (סולארייז) is a privately held, founder-led Israeli solar installation company headquartered in Haifa that designs, sells, finances, and installs photovoltaic (PV) systems for residential, commercial, agricultural, and institutional customers. The company was founded by Tom Barkowitz, an operations and business development manager, together with Yarden Chen, an electrical engineer specializing in solar system planning and execution. Its core offering is a one-stop-shop installation service covering site assessment, system design using Tier-1 components (Trina Solar, JA Solar, and Jinko panels; SolarEdge inverters; ABB electrical components), permitting, mounting, grid connection, and 25-year fixed-rate electricity sale agreements with the Israeli utility. Complementary offerings include battery energy storage, online solar calculators, and a financing product delivered through a Bank Hapoalim partnership that provides up to 100% funding for qualifying customers.

The business model combines one-time hardware-and-installation revenue with long-duration recurring revenue from electricity sold back to the grid under the 25-year tariff. Residential systems start at approximately 35,000 ILS for a 7.5 kW installation (around 5,500 ILS per kW), while commercial systems start at roughly 245,000 ILS for an 80 kW installation; projected annual returns of 12–20% and payback periods of 5.5–8 years underpin the value proposition. A shared-profit model allows Solarise to bear equipment and installation costs in exchange for a revenue share with property owners, lowering customer capital requirements. Documented projects span Haifa, Karmiel, Kiryat Ata, Kfar Tavor, Moshav Tzippori, Leshem, and other Northern Israel locations, with reference customers including Gordon College of Education (185 kW), Odi's Barn (125 kW agricultural), Savit Center (75 kW commercial), and the Ashmann settlement community purchasing group (over 20 residential installations).

The company pursues a sales-led GTM via its Hebrew-language website (solarise.co.il), phone outreach, and direct field sales, supported by a content marketing program (Solarise Magazine blog, YouTube channel, SEO-optimized pages). Solarise is privately held with no disclosed external investors, no public ticker, no parent company, no subsidiaries, and no disclosed funding rounds; its operating status is active and ongoing installations are documented across multiple Northern Israel sites.

Revenue model

1. Solar System Installation Revenue: Solarise installs solar panel systems on customer rooftops (residential and commercial) and earns revenue through the sale of electricity generated. Customers enter 25-year agreements with the electricity company to sell surplus power. Solarise also operates a shared-profit model where it bears installation costs and splits revenue with property owners.
2. Electricity Generation & Sales: Solarise generates electricity from installed solar panels and sells surplus electricity back to the grid under a 25-year fixed-rate tariff agreement with the electricity company. The company earns electricity sale revenue for 25 years per installation.

Others

• SolarEdge Technologies: SolarEdge is an Israeli inverter and power optimizer manufacturer that supplies equipment to Solarise installations. As a named technology partner, it sits upstream in the Israeli solar value chain rather than competing in installation, but shares the broader Israeli solar industry ecosystem.
• JA Solar Technology: JA Solar is a major global solar panel manufacturer and a Solarise panel supplier. As a Tier-1 module vendor, it represents the upstream equipment ecosystem in which Solarise operates rather than directly competing in the Israeli installation market.

Broad incumbents

• SunPower Corporation: SunPower is a leading US/global residential and commercial solar installer and panel manufacturer. It serves the same customer segments as Solarise (residential and commercial rooftops) but operates at much greater scale and brand recognition with a national footprint.
• Sunrun: Sunrun is the largest US residential solar installer, offering financing, installation, and long-term service. It mirrors Solarise's one-stop-shop residential model with embedded financing, but operates at a national scale with sophisticated capital markets access.
• Tesla Energy: Tesla Energy offers integrated residential and commercial solar plus Powerwall storage solutions globally. It competes in the rooftop solar market with combined solar and storage offerings, similar to Solarise's planned battery storage add-on, but with vastly greater brand and capital resources.

Emerging players

• Sunnova Energy International: Sunnova is a US residential solar service provider focused on financing and long-term service agreements. Like Solarise, it offers customers comprehensive solar solutions with financing options and long-duration revenue contracts, but at larger US scale.

Regional players

• Enlight Renewable Energy: Enlight is an Israeli renewable energy developer (TASE-listed) with wind, solar, and storage projects. It operates in the same Israeli energy market and regulatory framework as Solarise, targeting similar commercial and institutional customers but at materially larger scale.
• BrightSource Energy: BrightSource is an Israeli-origin solar energy company developing concentrated solar power (CSP) plants. While its technology focus differs, it shares the Israeli solar ecosystem, regulatory environment, and project development DNA with Solarise.

Direct peers

• Energix Renewable Energies: Energix is an Israeli renewable energy developer and operator (TASE-listed) with a portfolio of solar and wind projects across Israel. It competes for the same Israeli solar market and customer base and benefits from the same regulatory tailwinds (net metering, 25-year tariffs) as Solarise.
• Arava Power Company: Arava Power Company is an Israeli solar EPC focused on developing, financing, and operating commercial and utility-scale solar projects across Israel. Like Solarise, it serves Israeli customers under the same national regulatory and net-metering framework, competing directly for the same rooftop and commercial project pipeline.
