Heidel-Solar

About

Founded in 2025, Heidel-Solar is a ngo headquartered in Heidelberg, Germany with approximately 1-10 employees specializing in Solar.

Heidel-Solar is a non-profit citizen collective dedicated to advancing the energy transition from the bottom up in Heidelberg and the surrounding region. Originally established as a community initiative and re-energized in 2025, the organization focuses on educating residents about solar technology and balcony solar systems. The group operates through an active sub-group called "Die Balkonstromer" (The Balcony Power Generators), which specializes in balcony solar installations. They provide neighborhood assistance, organize community participation projects, coordinate group purchases, support installation with professional guidance, and offer educational materials and workshops. Their mission is to democratize knowledge about solar systems and encourage residents to participate in the energy transition while benefiting from generating their own solar power.
