About us
We are on a mission. When we combined our expertise from the automotive industry and the energy market, we recognized an opportunity to take a leading role in the energy transition. The paradox lies in the fact that the car, a symbol of emissions, can become the key to a revolution towards a sustainable future.
“By democratizing the electricity system, we empower more people and businesses to actively participate in the transition to a sustainable and renewable future.”
Our business model is similar to that of traditional banks. However, instead of managing money, we manage energy and power from batteries. When you connect your battery, whether it’s a battery electric vehicle or a stationary battery, to Energy Bank, it becomes part of our collective energy reserve.
We are revolutionizing the energy-sharing system, enabling both individuals and businesses to actively participate in a sustainable energy transition. Together, we are building a network where energy becomes a shared resource, fostering a greener and more resilient future.

Energy Bank helps you reduce your electricity costs by optimizing your energy consumption. You store inexpensive and renewable energy in your electric vehicle battery or stationary battery, which is then used in your building when electricity prices are high. This provides you with a cost-effective solution as it lowers your overall electricity costs and contributes renewable energy to the power grid. Just like a regular bank, Energy Bank charges a fee for managing the service.
Together with other batteries, both in electric vehicles or stationary batteries, you help stabilize and strengthen the power grid. Energy Bank gets paid for the available capacity in the batteries, and you keep 80% of the revenue.
Meet the team
Energy Bank was founded by two companies with complementary strengths: one with a background in the automotive industry and expertise in marketing and sales, and the other with a background in the energy sector and expertise in technology and software. This combination uniquely positions Energy Bank to bridge the gap between car OEMs and their bidirectional electric vehicles, and energy utilities and grid operators that can leverage this storage capacity and flexibility.
