Our take
Rising electricity prices and increasing demand have led to renewable energy adoption to rapidly become mainstream, however obtaining a home solar power system can be complicated, time-consuming, and expensive. With a mission to bring affordable green energy to everyone, Enpal provides homeowners with an all-in-one solar solution that is both easy and affordable.
The company rents out solar power systems, saving customers from paying high acquisition costs and instead paying a flat monthly rental fee for their customised solar solution that covers all costs (including planning, installation, maintenance, and more), and includes a green electricity tariff.
The company's debt funding in 2024 added more power to an already highly impressive valuation of $2.35 billion and will help it continue on its rapid growth trajectory. As one of the fastest-growing green-tech companies in the world, Enpal also holds the status of becoming Germany’s first renewable energy unicorn company as more people across Europe make the change to renewable energy.
