A British startup has secured €3 million in pre-seed funding to accelerate its vision of empowering actual property homeowners to capitalize on the value of their rooftop solar installations. Funds are expected to be allocated towards bolstering Volter’s infrastructure, expanding its customer network, and launching a presence in unexplored European territories.
A funding round led by Transition, with participation from Seedcamp and real estate investor Neptunia, along with angel investors such as Johannes Schildt of Kry and serial climate-tech founder Eamon Jubbawy.
Volter’s software program offers an end-to-end answer for business and industrial (C&I) property house owners, serving to them deploy, handle, and optimise photo voltaic portfolios. The platform offers a range of features, including automated billing capabilities, real-time monitoring for enhanced efficiency, streamlined setup proposals, and comprehensive Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) reporting tools. By closing the gap between photovoltaic deployment and operational efficiency, Volter aims to accelerate the adoption of renewable energy in real estate, transforming buildings into income-generating energy farms.
Founded in 2024, Volter emerged as a collaborative effort between Luke Buhl-Nielsen and Alex Joss, both seasoned entrepreneurs with a profound understanding of the startup landscape and the vitality sector’s nuances. Volture plans to expand its offerings into comprehensive energy solutions, including battery storage and digital energy platforms.

According to Voltaire’s principles, Europe’s solar power industry has experienced rapid growth, with rooftop installations capable of meeting up to 25% of total electricity requirements. By leveraging this trend, Volter’s platform offers innovative tools for real estate investors to efficiently manage and scale solar portfolios across multiple sites, streamlining their operations and maximizing returns.
