Our values

We are always a step ahead, rethinking the status quo of energy and setting standards for the new energy world.

We think across boundaries and do everything we can to avoid silos.

We accept challenges and always work with our customer in mind.

The quality of our products exceeds the expectations of our customers. We settle for nothing less than the best.

 

We use our economic and ecological resources responsibly.

“Over the past ten years, Kiwigrid has grown from five passionate founders to over 160 inspiring team members. Every day we are driving the decentralized energy transition and I’m immensely proud to be heading a company that truly lives its values. We challenge the status quo and support each team member to achieve individual and group success.”

Dr. Frank Schlichting (Chief Executive Officer)

“Implementing the decentralized energy transition is extremely exciting from a technological perspective. I would even describe it as the “biggest software project of our time”. At Kiwigrid, we are breaking new, unprecedented ground by building a platform to monitor, control and manage an enormous amount of decentralized renewable energy. Based on standard technology and in collaboration with our cloud partner Google, we aim to significantly increase the use of locally generated renewable energy. This requires a large transactional power plant characterized by high scalability, a very high level of security and robust distributed intelligence.”

Dr.-Ing. Carsten Bether (Chief Product Officer)

"Creating added value for our customers is the basis for our economic success and directly links to our contribution to the success of the decentralized energy transition. Accompanying an innovative enterprise with heart and vision on this road to success is as exciting as it is challenging. We want to be a company that makes a positive and sustainable impact both externally and internally, for our employees, customers and investors, the economy and the environment."

Why we love what we do

“I enjoy convincing our customers of our green, digital products and working with passionate colleagues who don't miss a single climate strike and are deeply committed to the energy transition. It's the little things, like eating together at the „Falafel-Imbiss“, that I value so much (and currently miss the most).”

Kristin Schumann (Product Marketing Manager)

“A cutting-edge tech stack, working on one of the most important topics of our time, motivated colleagues and many opportunities for further development - these are just four of many more reasons for me to go to work every morning motivated and happy. Building a stable and highly scalable platform presents me with new and exciting challenges every day. For me, the most valuable idea is that by making the platform available, our customers can realize significantly more product ideas for the energy transition on it than we could ever develop ourselves as Kiwigrid.”

Manuel Hoffmann (System Architect)

“It motivates me to know that my work is valued by my collegues and my superiors. When I finish work for the day, I feel great knowing that I've contributed something towards the energy revolution.”

Sebastian Gebhardt (Production Manager)

"I love my job as it gives me an excellent opportunity to work in fantastic teams with colleagues with rich experiences, contributing to one of the most important areas such as renewable energy at a time when the world is facing climate change challenges. Furthermore, my job gives me space to grow professionally and stay motivated to learn and overcome challenges!"

Erdi Papavangjeli (Testing Engineer)
