About
Founded in 2014, Bremer SolidarStrom is a co-op headquartered in Bremen, Germany with approximately 10-50 employees specializing in Solar.
Bremer SolidarStrom is a solidarity-based cooperative focused on advancing the energy and economic transition in Bremen through community engagement. The organization coordinates cooperative solar installations, distributes plug-and-play balcony solar modules as complete packages, and supplies certified 100% renewable electricity from EWS Schönau. The group employs a consensus-based decision-making model and emphasizes mutual support and inclusive energy democracy. Key services include professional planning and site management for DIY solar projects, technical installation support, energy consultation, and financing assistance for residential solar systems. A single balcony module generates approximately 250 kWh annually, saving households around €100 in electricity costs and avoiding 100 kg CO2 yearly. The cooperative provides expertise on system design, permits, grid connection, and offers optional professional installation services. They also distribute energy storage batteries with smart load management options. Members can participate through voluntary pricing contributions based on ability to pay.
