Statkraft Backing

Statkraft, our owner, is not new to clean energy, they have been producing renewable energy for over a century. Statkraft develops, owns, and operates wind, solar, hydro, and greener-grid projects.

Statkraft and Mer believe that renewable energy is both a solution to climate change and more economical than conventional fossil fuel energy. Statkraft’s strong credit has enabled many third-party projects to gain finance for their new build projects, saving 70 billion tonnes of CO2 over their life in the UK alone.

Mer, with the help of other Statkraft businesses, can create packages of charging, storage, and electricity maximising convenience and cost savings.
