Who is SAMAWATT?

SAMAWATT SA is a Swiss Trading-as-a-Service provider founded in 2018 in Eysins, Switzerland. It forecasts, trades and optimises solar, wind, hydro and battery assets across 18 European electricity markets, is a registered Balance Responsible Party in Germany, and is ISV-certified on EPEX, ETPA and Nord Pool.

Our story

From French balancing markets to 18 European markets.

SAMAWATT was founded in 2018 in Eysins, Switzerland, with a simple conviction: renewable asset owners should capture the full market value of their production without running a trading desk — and without handing their upside to an opaque aggregator.

We started in the French balancing markets, building forecasting and optimisation technology from first principles rather than assembling third-party tools.

Backed by Innosuisse and trusted by utilities and IPPs across Europe, we remain what we were on day one: an independent, transparent trading partner.

Mission

Accelerate the energy transition by making renewables more profitable.

Every euro of additional market revenue makes the next solar park, wind farm or battery easier to finance. Our job is to maximise that revenue — automatically, transparently and at scale.

Values

How we work.

Full transparency

Every forecast, trade and dispatch decision is logged and auditable down to the MWh. If we cannot explain it, we do not ship it.

Independence

No own assets, no hidden margin. We earn when our clients earn.

Built in-house

Forecasting, VPP, execution and optimisation are one integrated system — not a patchwork of vendors.

Skin in the market

Active in electricity markets 24/7, we turn live trading experience into strategies that help maximize your asset revenues.
