As one of Europe's fastest growing greentech start-ups, we're determined to make our dream of bringing local and clean energy to every home a reality.
Otovo provides solar panels to homeowners and we use software and technology to make solar energy easy, cheap, and available everywhere.
- We make solar easy by providing tailored offers to customers visiting our website who thenenter their address details. With our unique technology at the core of our business we have removed the need for a home visit and can offer tailored offers to all customers visiting our website.
- We make solar cheap by providing a platform where installers compete on price and quality to get assignments.
- We make solar available everywhere by quickly expanding our platform to new markets all over the world.
- We make solar more accessible by offering a leasing product, splitting the cost of the system over 20 years
We have come a long way since launching in 2016—we're now in Norway, Sweden, France, Spain, Poland, Italy, Germany, UK, Portugal, and Austria and we aren’t stopping.
