SOLTAR˚

Sharing the sun with everyone.

We empower the shift towards renewable energies, by allowing everyone to gain direct access to self-produced solar energy – regardless of financial condition, residential situation, or technical knowledge.

Our platform allows the owners of existing photovoltaic systems (which almost always produce more energy than needed) to share their surplus of energy. They can share it with neighbors, friends, family, or whoever lives nearby and is seeking a cheap and uncomplicated way to consume their own, clean solar energy.

Like Airbnb, but for solar energy.

About the KTH Innovation pre-incubator program

The KTH Innovation pre-incubator program is a 12-month program for promising startup projects from KTH. We welcome new teams into the program twice a year. Around 10% of all ideas that KTH Innovation supports go to the pre-incubator program.

In addition to business development support from KTH Innovation, the teams in the program get access to offices and meeting rooms in KTH Innovation's premises at Teknikringen 1. Every week, they meet over lunch and take part in a tailor-made workshop program.

They also get access to our makerspace and production studio. Together with the program's over 250 alumni projects, they form a supportive community, growing and developing together.

Participants in the program also get an opportunity to get an experienced mentor via KTH Innovation's mentor program, and to pitch for a SEK 250,000 in investment from KTH Holding AB.
