Swiss-engineered. Performance-driven. Transparent.

Since 2018 we have built the full renewable trading value chain in-house — forecasting, VPP orchestration, exchange execution and battery optimisation — so asset owners keep more of every MWh.

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.

Assets under management: Clean generation and storage capacity actively forecasted, traded, and balanced across European wholesale power markets.
Typical revenue uplift: Up to 50% more net profit vs. an equivalent flat PPA — achieved by capturing intraday volatility and optimizing continuous balancing.
Markets: 18 European electricity markets interconnected with automated algorithmic execution.
Regulatory status: Registered Balance Responsible Party (BRP) in Germany — operating directly without intermediary trading houses.
Exchange certification: ISV-certified on EPEX and ETPA with native high-frequency API connectors for continuous sub-second order management.
Founded: 8+ years developing proprietary AI forecasting & trading in-house.
Headquarters: Engineered with Swiss precision in the canton of Vaud, Switzerland.
Legal entity: Independent corporate entity with zero asset ownership conflict of interest.

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.
