Isarwatt eG

Isarwatt eG, founded in 2017 by six Munich housing cooperatives, is today Munich's leading tenant electricity provider and a driving force in the energy transition.

• Energy: Isarwatt produces and distributes sustainable energy through solar systems on rooftops and combined heat and power plants in the basements of residential buildings. This enables decentralized energy generation and supply directly on site[3].
• Mobility: The company offers comprehensive mobility solutions, including cargo bikes for rent, charging stations for electric mobility, and shareable public transport tickets to support the mobility transition[3].
• Digital Services: Isarwatt provides a platform called "klink," which facilitates collaboration in the neighborhood and simplifies the management of shared resources. Additionally, the company has implemented a scalable SaaS solution to digitize and optimize the processes of the tenant electricity offering[1][3].

The main mission of Isarwatt is to drive the energy transition in the housing sector and provide sustainable energy at fair prices for tenants. The company places great importance on participatory decision-making processes and the close connection to the residents, who often volunteer in the projects. Each member company has one vote, regardless of the number of shares, which underscores the democratic and cooperative structure[2].

Isarwatt is intensively committed to sustainability:

• Decentralized Energy Generation: By utilizing solar systems and combined heat and power plants, the degree of autonomy of the residential buildings is increased and grid stability is improved[2].
• Energy Efficiency: Consumers can view their electricity consumption in real-time via an internet portal, which helps save electricity and promotes the consumption of locally produced solar power[2].
• Mobility Transition: The offered mobility solutions promote sustainable mobility and reduce dependence on fossil fuels[3].

Isarwatt continuously invests in research and development to drive innovation and digitalization. Adequate equity financing enables the company to invest in forward-looking projects and thus further support the energy transition[2].

With over 20 member companies and a strong cooperative structure, Isarwatt works closely with the residents to ensure a sustainable and future-proof energy supply.
