Driving Innovation Together

Driving Innovation Together

“Far and away the best prize that life offers is the chance to work hard at work worth doing.” – Theodore Roosevelt

Our story and background

We have successfully established ourselves in the renewable energy sector, with a particular focus on designing, installing and distributing large photovoltaic systems. Originally based in the beautiful region of Baden-Württemberg, Germany, we have developed a deep understanding of the local market and its regulations since 2015. To date, our partner companies have brought over 150 major projects to life throughout Germany, delivering a total power output of 60 megawatts and investing 80 million euros in a cleaner future. Collectively, a total of 80 megawatts are operated and managed simultaneously by our own partner companies and their subsidiaries, with 60 megawatts directly constructed by them.

...

Our classic business model has always been straightforward: designing and installing photovoltaic systems on large surfaces such as warehouse roofs, industrial plants, sports and community halls and open spaces. These areas are typically leased for 20 to 30 years, with options for extensions, and are renovated beforehand if necessary. The owners of the utilized spaces benefit from the lease and/or the aforementioned renovation and enhancement of their rooftop areas. Investors become the owners of the purchased photovoltaic systems. In most cases, our partner companies have acted as the operator of the systems to date, taking over complete management and service after installation is completed. Once operational, the systems generate income from the electricity produced and sold, ensuring a steady return on investment for many years.

Our corporate philosophy has constantly been centred on delivering a high-quality and consistent product at a fair price. A working concept has been developed that benefits everyone involved – the investors, roof owners, the company and, not least, nature and the environment. The expertise in creating high-quality plants offers investors the opportunity to make a significant contribution to green energy production while benefiting from the profitability of electricity sales.

The initial development phases of our partner companies in the early years, 2015 and 2016, were characterized by innovative approaches and pilot projects that provided the opportunity to optimize numerous processes and develop efficient, well-functioning systems. Over the years, our partner companies have grown into medium-sized market players that now handle all activities along the supply chain in-house, enhancing control and security. In 2021 and 2022 alone, a total of 72 projects were realized, with a combined capacity of up to 25.5 megawatts. In the current years, 2023 and 2024, over 25 major projects are under construction simultaneously. Most of these installations and projects are rooftop systems, which typically require more complex planning and construction, with a smaller number being open-space installations.

The Monetec company and our mission

We have always been dedicated to continuously refining our processes and business model while actively exploring new and more effective business opportunities. The renewable energy market is brimming with potential for innovation and expansion, particularly in Europe. With the rapid advancements in blockchain technology and the emergence of innovative financing methods like tokenization, we recognized a unique opportunity in 2022/2023 to blend these promising areas. Encouraged by our success in Germany, we are now expanding our horizons globally. As a result, we established Monetec GmbH in 2024, with its heart in Vienna, Austria. This strategic move will allow us to explore international markets and integrate cutting-edge technologies into our business model, setting the stage for future growth and innovation.

Through the financing method of tokenization, Monetec GmbH creates the MTC token, a single investment vehicle, which provides an easy entry to the renewable energy market for investors. This token allows investors to share in the profits* from all activities and new projects of Monetec GmbH. One of the main sources of revenue will be the net profits generated from the energy produced by the projects' installations. Future potential revenue streams could include grid operation services, photovoltaic certifications or transactions involving real estate and installations themselves, among other possibilities.

Tokenization opens up vast, new markets and opportunities. This not only makes investing secure, efficient and transparent but also allows everyone to make a meaningful impact on green energy production and enjoy the financial rewards from various projects. It sidesteps the usual red tape, enabling investment across borders into new projects faster and more smoothly than ever before. This eliminates heavy contracts, endless waiting for approvals and the need to get bogged down in details. With ownership of MTC tokens, one is automatically part of the profits* of all Monetec's projects combined. Our philosophy? – Keep it simple.

We are planning to target Mallorca, Spain, specifically as the first location for our new renewable energy projects, which will be launched by Monetec GmbH. Our choice of Spain as the country where we are planning to expand after Germany is not accidental – the average number of hours of sunshine per year is significantly higher than in most European countries, ranging between 2,500 and 3,000 hours, depending on the region. The break-even point for an average project of similar scale in Germany is usually reached no later than within 15-20 years after the project's launch, often faster. In Spain, this time frame is expected to be much shorter, due to the nearly 50% more hours of sunshine and the significant difference in electricity output as a result. Additionally, the Spanish market offers a high demand for renewable energy. Furthermore, although development has slowed somewhat in recent years, the Spanish government still offers a number of incentive programs that support projects in the renewable energy sector.

...

However, our journey won't end with Spain. We are committed to expanding our initiatives across Europe and beyond, launching new and exciting projects. We look forward to this mission and are eager to see what opportunities the future will bring. We welcome everyone who joins us on this journey.
