About Samawatt
Swiss-built. Independent. Transparent.
Since 2018 we've 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.
Who is Samawatt?
Samawatt SA is a Swiss Trading-as-a-Service provider founded in 2018 in Eysins, Switzerland. It forecasts, trades and optimises solar, wind, hydro and battery assets across 18 European electricity markets, is a registered Balance Responsible Party in Germany, and is ISV-certified on EPEX, ETPA and Nord Pool.
Our story
From Swiss balancing markets to 18 European countries.
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 Swiss 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 with no proprietary book and no conflict of interest. [PLACEHOLDER — validate story details with Samawatt team]

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.
Values
How we work.
No black box
Every forecast, trade and dispatch decision is logged and auditable down to the MWh. If we can't explain it, we don't ship it.
Independence
No proprietary trading book, no own assets, no hidden margin. We earn when our clients earn.
Built in-house
Forecasting, VPP, execution and optimisation are one integrated system — not a patchwork of vendors.
Skin in the market
We operate 24/7 in the same markets we advise on. Our intelligence comes from live trading, not reports.
