What projects does home of energy manage?
Our focus is on large-scale energy projects in the commercial and public sectors. These include photovoltaic systems starting at approximately 1 MWp, wind energy projects, and battery storage systems with a capacity of at least 1 MWh. We assess on a case-by-case basis which services are appropriate for a specific project, taking into account the location, project size, and technical conditions.
Does home of energy work with specific manufacturers or suppliers?
No. Our approach is independent. For each project, we identify and compare suitable vendors, technologies, and specialized partners based on the specific requirements. The selection is not influenced by preferred or paid partnerships.
How is it determined which offer is the best?
It’s not just about the lowest price. We consider the scope of services, technical quality, cost-effectiveness, feasibility, and suitability for the specific project. Relevant technical aspects can also be reviewed by specialized engineering and technical partners. This provides a solid basis for decision-making rather than a mere price comparison.
Can existing proposals or plans also be reviewed?
Yes. Existing proposals, technical documentation, or current planning statuses can be reviewed in a structured manner and compared with one another. In doing so, we examine, among other things, the scope of services, technical plausibility, cost structure, and potential gaps or risks. The idea of systematically reviewing existing contracts and documents for potential areas of optimization is also addressed in the EEP FAQ and can be usefully applied to your projects.
How much internal effort does this require for our company?
Our goal is to keep the organizational burden on the client’s side as low as possible. Once we have jointly defined the requirements, we handle—depending on the scope of services—vendor research, bid comparison, technical coordination, and project management. This means that internal teams do not have to manage numerous vendors, specialist planners, and contractors simultaneously on their own. This reduction in the burden on internal resources is also a key advantage of external energy service providers.
Does home of energy also handle the implementation?
Yes. Our approach goes beyond consulting or mere brokerage. As a general contractor, we can bring together planning, coordination, construction, technical inspection, commissioning, and documentation within the agreed-upon scope of the project.
Can Home of Energy also provide individual services?
Yes. The scope of services can be customized to suit each project. In addition to full general contractor services, services such as project review, vendor research, bid comparison, technical review, or purely planning and coordination services can also be arranged separately. This is consistent with the modular approach common in the industry, which involves combining additional or reduced service modules on a project-by-project basis.
How does the collaboration typically work?
We begin by clarifying the project objectives, location, technical requirements, and existing documentation. We then assess feasibility, identify suitable partners, and compare proposals. Once a decision has been made, we coordinate implementation and oversee the project through testing, commissioning, and documentation.
How is quality ensured during implementation?
Through defined technical requirements, structured testing, and documented project phases. Depending on the project, we bring in specialized technical and engineering partners and coordinate, among other things, technical verifications, tests, acceptance inspections, and documentation.
How much does the general contractor's service cost?
The cost depends on the technology, project size, location, technical complexity, and desired scope of services. That is why we quote projects on a case-by-case basis. During a no-obligation initial consultation, we can assess your basic requirements and determine the appropriate scope of services.
Is Europe-wide implementation possible?
Our partner network has a global reach. We evaluate on a project-by-project basis whether and to what extent a project can be implemented at a specific location, taking into account the technical, regulatory, and organizational conditions.
Why should a complex energy project be managed centrally?
The more contractors, planners, and trades are involved, the greater the coordination effort becomes. Centralized project management establishes clear lines of responsibility, reduces points of interface, and ensures that technical, financial, and organizational decisions are aligned. For the client, this means having a single point of contact and less coordination effort.
