The company’s mission is to make building-integrated solar solutions the standard in residential and infrastructure construction.
The investment follows the 700th solar roof installation in 8 countries. According to Silver Aednik, co-founder and CEO of Solarstone OÜ, energy production and consumption patterns are undergoing a major shift, with prosumer-generated capacities balancing the shortcomings of centralized energy generation.
“The shift has led many to look towards adding their production capacity to where they live. Solarstone’s technology removes all barriers to making it happen as it makes it profitable, beautiful & climate conscious of adding solar directly to where they live,” states Silver.
Upgrade production and develop teams
The investment will enable Solarstone to upgrade production and develop the teams in Estonia and other strategic markets. The company is actively recruiting proptech experts to grow private and business segments.
In addition, Solarstone is investing in software solutions that empower stakeholders in the construction industry to design and procure solar power plants more effectively.
