Dive into the ins and outs of power control in homes and businesses soon, with 1Komma5° and its Heartbeat technology. Australian home and business owners can now have full control of their electricity procurement and electricity usage within homes.
This comes with the introduction of Heartbeat technology and its integration with solar batteries and the providers therein. One company that provides such energy solutions is 1Komma5°, a German startup seeking to merge with Australia’s largest solar batteries provider.
1Komma5° facilitates energy saving in homes and businesses with its bulk purchasing power. The company boasts experts, investors, and entrepreneurs in the clean technology sector. This combination of experts includes a certain Phillip Schroder. He happens to be a former managing director at Sonnen, a solar battery manufacturer. Currently the CEO of 1Komma5°, Philip brings much-needed expertise centering on the world of solar energy and better cost-saving methods.
Their company is thus seeking to invest heavily for approximately 18 months, a move that began in late 2022. This business endeavor began with an investment made in Natural Solar Company based in Australia. Natural Solar is responsible for the first Powerwall Tesla solar system in Australia. After the initial setup came approximately 10,000 more installations in Australia. These moves made it the largest provider of solar batteries in Sydney and Australia in general. With this merger, 1Komma5° will set new standards in terms of green energy and cost-saving approaches for Australian nationals.
This move comes after months of increasing electricity rates in Australia. During the months of 2022, electricity prices shot through the roof, meaning 1Komma5° and Natural Solar are a welcomed necessity in the APAC region. Incidentally, 1Komma5° and its services span over three continents, and its expertise is sought-after. This further implies that along with providing solar batteries in Sydney, Natural Solar will enjoy operational efficiencies along with other economies of scale, including bulk buying.
Perhaps the greatest asset to Natural Solar, from 1Komma5°, comes with the introduction of the Heartbeat technology. This is 1Komma5°’s one-stop device for all things power related. Home and business owners will be able to purchase electricity, control the devices that use them, and significantly decrease power costs. The conglomerate seeks to invest heavily in green technology companies across this region. With approximately $100 million at stake, 1Komma5° seeks to invest in clean technology companies across the Asia-Pacific region.
With influencers like Philip Schroeder, the sky is the limit for Natural Solar and solar batteries in Sydney, and Australia at large. 1Komma5° is responsible for green approaches to energy provision and usage. This includes providing electricity for mobility i.e. cars, for electricity and heating. The idea of carbon-neutral living is not only supported but facilitated in the hands of 1Komma5°. The Heartbeat smart technology thus facilitates these energy-saving approaches with IoT.
Their investment into solar energy and Natural Solar in particular is a move to bring together the best in the business. 1Komma5° seeks to merge the best clean technology companies in the region to help homeowners and businesses bring down electricity costs. This German company has a heavy presence in countries like Sweden, Germany, Austria, and others and is now seeking to step in where others have failed, in Australia.
Bottom Line
Providing solar batteries in Sydney is one thing while ensuring that said batteries are used effectively is quite another. Merging experts from Sonnen and other leading clean technology companies is a well-thought-out move. As the leader of this merger of companies, Philip Schroeder offers much-needed expertise for Natural Solar and the larger APAC community in general.
