Otovo, Europe’s leading marketplace for solar systems, and the Swiss solar module manufacturer Meyer Burger Technology AG announce the immediate launch of a new partnership. This collaboration underlines their shared commitment to building a more robust and sustainable energy infrastructure in Europe, a market whose importance was recently underscored in the European Union’s agreement on the “Net Zero Industry Act” (NZIA). As part of this collaboration, Otovo will integrate Meyer Burger’s high-quality solar products as a European, sustainable module alternative on its marketplace.
Tradition Meets Digital Innovation
This partnership brings together Meyer Burger's rich expertise in European-manufactured, high-quality solar modules with Otovo’s efficient digital sales process. This synergy allows both companies to leverage their individual strengths to better serve the European solar market and provide consumers with a more comprehensive selection.
“To promote European products alongside a renowned company like Meyer Burger is a significant gain for all those driving the energy transition. Meyer Burger's modules are a high-quality product that we can swiftly bring to consumers' rooftops with the help of our digital processes, a strong network of local installers, and political framework conditions,” commented Artur Schreiber, Managing Director for Germany at Otovo.
“With this partnership, we are actively preparing ourselves for a resilience scenario in Germany. Purchasing a solar system with Meyer Burger modules at fair prices will be as easy as ordering everyday items online. End customers will have the opportunity to buy a Meyer Burger solar system with just a few clicks. Therefore, this partnership is a significant contribution to strengthening resilience in the European energy market,” said Gunter Erfurt, CEO of Meyer Burger. His company remains committed to the previously pursued three-stage sales strategy.
Promoting the European Energy Transition
This partnership unites two distinct European success models with a common vision: accelerating the energy transition in Europe. The companies' commitment significantly increases accessibility to “Made in Europe” solar energy, marking a crucial step towards strengthening resilience and performance of the European solar industry.
