Otovo is setting out to be the #1 solar energy company in Europe.

Customers get the best prices from local, high-quality installers who all adhere to the Otovo product standards and create the Otovo experience.

Our people are intent on creating results, so we love when people do stuff rather than talk about it or plan forever: If you’re a do’er you’ll enjoy working here. We try to allow for flexibility in work hours and workstyles when that is possible. We celebrate completing things, not starting them.
