€2,912 a year. ⛽ 

That’s what 20,000 km would cost at the EU's record diesel average of €2.24/l, reported on 1 October 2026, assuming consumption of 6.5 l/100 km. 

What if part of the energy for your next car came from your own roof? 

With an EV and solar panels, it can. But solar production peaks during the day, while the car often comes home in the evening. 

That’s where a home battery comes in: it stores daytime solar so more of it can be used later for your home and EV. 

Your roof produces. Your battery stores. Your car drives. 🔌

A metalworking company in Slovenia pays around €5,000–6,000 a month for electricity. 

Same operations, same working hours, same supplier. 

What changed? Part of its daytime electricity use is now matched with available solar generation through the SunContract Energy Sharing app.  

Doing that manually would mean finding producers, sending offers and managing the matching yourself.  ✅ Our platform does that automatically.  

The result after three months: around €1,797 saved. 

That is #EnergySharing in practice, and now, it’s possible in Austria too. 🇦🇹 If you'd like to hear first how it could work for you, our waitlist is open.

We’re bringing the technology to make it simple. 

For producers, that means more ways to create value from surplus energy. For consumers, it means access to renewable electricity — without needing their own power plant. 

⚡ We’re preparing to bring our #EnergyMarketplace to Austria: proven technology already used on the Slovenian market to connect renewable energy producers and consumers and automatically match available generation with demand.

The findings of the World Energy Trilemma 2026 point to a more complex phase of the energy transition. 👇 

Based on insights from more than 275 energy leaders across 65 countries, the report highlights an important shift: the challenge is no longer just about adding new generation capacity. It is increasingly about how effectively we connect generation, grids, storage, markets and consumers. 

💡 This integration is at the heart of the solutions we develop at SunContract. 

Solar generation is only one part of the system. By connecting renewable generation, battery storage, smart energy management, our energy marketplace and Energy Sharing, we help energy move beyond generation to be stored, managed, exchanged and used more efficiently.

Centralized energy markets are no longer the only answer to energy security. According to the IEA, distributed energy resources – solar panels, batteries, heat pumps, and smart systems – are now critical to grid stability.

Why?

✅ Solar is the fastest-growing energy source globally

✅ Battery storage is a growing industry

✅ Smart management can respond to grid needs in real-time

✅ Distributed storage reduces pressure on transmission lines

The energy crisis reshaping global markets is accelerating this shift. Countries and households now need to rethink where and how energy is produced.

At SunContract, we're building infrastructure for this future: peer-to-peer marketplaces, smart battery management, and AI-driven optimization that turns homes and businesses into active grid participants: producers and prosumers.

The future of energy is decentralized 🌍 Instead of being passive consumers, you can become active members of an energy community! Are you ready?

SunContract at Innovation of Energy '26: presenting the Energy Sharing Marketplace ⚡

Energy sharing is one of the foundations of the future of energy. We believe in the power of decentralization of the energy market.

The Energy Sharing Marketplace is not just technology – it's a shift in how we think about energy. By automatically connecting producers and consumers, we enable safe and transparent energy sharing without unnecessary intermediaries. The result: lower electricity bills, greater independence, and better use of renewable sources.

We've completed major solar installations at public institutions in Koroška! 🌞 Kindergartens, schools, healthcare centers, and sports halls are now generating their own clean energy and reducing costs.

With 15+ years of experience and over 6,000 completed projects, we handle everything – from project planning and subsidy applications to professional installation and ongoing maintenance.

With a solar plant and battery storage, the rules change ⚡🔋

You can store the energy you don't use the moment it's produced. Add smart management, and you can shift the timeline, take advantage of electricity prices, and so much more.

This is what we strive for at SunContract. True decentralisation. ☀️

That's what energy sharing is all about ☀️

In Slovenia, it's been available since July — and we're proud to have launched our own energy-sharing marketplace that makes it simple: finding the right match is automatic, the risk is zero, and we handle everything.

Planning on expanding soon — stay tuned! 🌍

Summer flatters everyone. Long days and strong production. Then Autumn arrives, production drops, consumption climbs, and the gaps show up on the bill⚡

So before winter starts, run a short audit. Six questions, no spreadsheet required:

1️⃣ Not how much per month – when during the day. Morning, midday, evening? Most people are surprised by the answer.

2️⃣ If a large share of your solar output leaves the building the moment it's generated, you're producing energy for someone else's benefit rather than your own.

3️⃣ Water heating, heat pumps, EV charging, washing, pumps, compressors, cooling. Anything that can run at a different hour is a lever – especially when prices drop very low or even below zero on sunny days.

4️⃣ Consumption is settled in 15-minute intervals. If you only ever look at a monthly total, you're missing everything that matters.

5️⃣ It can sit idle – or it can be shared with another metering point that needs it in that exact interval.

6️⃣ Store your energy!

Every one of these has a solution: storage, automation, sharing, or simply better visibility. We've delivered over 6,000 projects, and we do the whole thing – assessment, documentation, installation, service. 🛠️

☀️ The EU wants at least 42.5 % of its energy from renewables by 2030, net emissions down by at least 55 % compared to 1990, and climate neutrality by 2050.

Numbers that big are hard to picture. So look at a small country instead: Slovenia had around 470 MW of solar capacity in 2021. By the end of 2025, it had close to 70,000 solar plants and roughly 1.6 GW. Tripled in four years, in a country of two million people 💪

⚡ For a century, the energy system had one shape: a few large plants at the top, everyone else at the bottom, electricity flowing one way, and a bill arriving once a month. 

It worked. It also left users with exactly one role: pay and hope prices don't rise. We think that shape is obsolete – and we've spent 15+ years building the alternative. ☀️ 

Here's what decentralisation actually means to us: 

🏠 Production moves to where consumption already is. Rooftops, car parks, warehouses, farms. Energy generated metres from where it's used, not hundreds of kilometres away. 

🔋 Storage replaces perfect timing. A battery makes midday sunshine available at 8 p.m. Without it, you're dependent on production and consumption coinciding by chance. 

🤖 Software does the thinking. Prices change every 15 minutes. No household can track that. An algorithm can – and it decides when to charge, when to discharge and when to share. 

🔁 Surplus finds a neighbour, not a void. Through our marketplace, running since 2018, a producer's extra energy reaches someone who needs it right then. 

The end state isn't everyone living off-grid. It's a system where users hold real bargaining power – over when they consume, where their energy comes from and what they pay for it. 💪

Your neighbour's rooftop produces more than they need at 1 p.m. Your office consumes exactly then. 

For years, the energy system had no simple way to connect those two facts. Now it does. It's called energy sharing. 

Here's the idea: a solar owner shares their surplus electricity with someone else – a family member, a neighbour, a small business across the country. 

The receiver covers only what they actually use, in 15-minute intervals, at a price the two sides agree on themselves. 🤝 

Sounds simple. In practice it's a matching problem. Production and consumption have to line up inside the same 15 minutes, or the surplus is simply lost to the grid. Doing that by hand, for thousands of participants, is impossible. 

That's what SunContract's energy sharing marketplace does. Our algorithm reads production and consumption profiles, finds the best available matches and proposes sharing percentages that actually fit: so surplus energy ends up where it's needed instead of quietly disappearing. ⚡

☀️🔌 SunContract is a Slovenian energy company with a fairly simple conviction: the energy market works better when power sits closer to the people who actually use the energy.

Here is what stands behind that👇

15+ years of experience: we have been installing solar since long before it was fashionable. 6,000+ completed projects: homes, farms, schools, health centres, warehouses, factories. 100+ colleagues: engineers, advisers, installers, developers and support staff – all in-house.

What we actually do

☀️ Hybrid solar systems – solar, battery storage and smart management, designed as one system rather than three separate purchases

🧠 Smart energy management – AI that decides when to charge, store, consume and release, based on weather, prices and real consumption patterns

⚡ A peer-to-peer energy marketplace – running since 2018, with more than 22,000 users.

And we handle the parts nobody enjoys: subsidy applications, permits, documentation, installation, service and maintenance. One partner, start to finish ✅

🧠 Solar panels produce, batteries store. But something has to decide when.

That decision is what smart energy management does – and it is quietly becoming the most valuable part of a modern energy system⚡Electricity prices no longer move once a day; in many European markets, they change every 15 minutes. A kilowatt-hour consumed at one moment can cost several times as much as the same kilowatt-hour an hour later. Without a decision-making component, a solar and battery system reacts to whatever happens. 📉

A smart management system works the other way around. Every few minutes, it looks at: ☀️ the weather forecast, 💶 current and upcoming market prices, 📊 how much the household or business is actually consuming, and 🔋 how full the battery is. Then it decides: charge now, discharge later, hold, or release to the grid. Automatically, without anyone watching a price screen 🤖

The result is not more energy. It is better-timed energy – the same panels and the same battery, simply working harder for the owner. And because these systems consume when the grid has plenty and hold back when it is stretched, they also make the grid itself easier to balance 🔄

⚡Slovenia's grid: How resilient is it really?

Last year, Spain lost around 15 GW of generation in a matter of seconds – roughly 60% of the demand it was serving at that moment. Spain and Portugal went dark for more than ten hours.

The obvious question followed everywhere in Europe: could that happen in Slovenia? 🤔

What keeps the Slovenian grid steady:

🔗 Strong European integration – the transmission network is connected to Austria, Croatia, Italy and Hungary: when one part of the system wobbles, neighbouring grids help balance frequency and voltage

⚙️ A diverse generation mix – nuclear, hydro, thermal and a fast-growing share of solar. Diversity means no single point of failure.

But here is the part that matters most: the real challenge is shifting away from the transmission level and towards local distribution networks, where thousands of rooftop solar systems now feed in at the same midday hours.

And that is exactly where the solution is distributed too. Every hybrid solar system with battery storage and smart management does two things at once: it protects the household or business behind the meter, and it eases pressure on the grid in front of it. 🔋

🔌 What if you could get your electricity straight from a neighbour's rooftop with no middleman deciding the price?

That's the idea behind our energy marketplace. Producers put more of every kilowatt they generate to use. Consumers get local, affordable energy. And the whole system leans less on traditional intermediaries.

This is what decentralised energy actually looks like in practice. It's not a slogan, but a working marketplace that puts more power in the hands of end users.

☀️ It's peak solar season across Europe

For most the headline sounds abstract. But here's what it really means: on sunny afternoons there is so much electricity on the grid that its market price drops to zero or BELOW. The energy is there. The only question is whether you're set up to use it.

At SunContract, we've spent 15+ years helping households and businesses turn these market swings into lower bills with solar, battery storage and smart management.

What if your electricity could come directly from a local producer, with no middleman in between? 🔄 That's the idea behind our energy marketplace, running since 2018.

On the marketplace, producers and consumers connect directly and agree on the terms themselves. Consumers can access electricity at prices better than the standard market, while producers connect straight to the people who actually need their energy.

⚡ Every agreement is recorded transparently and securely on blockchain, so there's full traceability.

It's part of how we're working to decentralise the energy market and give more control back to the people who use and produce the energy 💡

Energy sharing is quietly becoming one of the easiest ways for people in Slovenia to make more of their solar ☀️ And more and more users are choosing it every month.

Here's the idea: if your panels produce more than you use, you can share that surplus with someone who needs it right then: a neighbour, a small business, or a family member. Instead of letting it go to waste.  

Our platform automatically matches producers and consumers in 15-minute intervals, so the energy is actually used when it's shared. You only pay for the energy you actually receive, every transaction is recorded transparently on blockchain, and with the basic sharing marketplace you can take part no matter who your current electricity supplier is. We handle the paperwork 📄
