We're #hiring a new Business Operations Intern (w/m/d) in Berlin, Berlin. Apply today or share this post with your network.

Exciting News! We're welcoming Dr. Florent Erbar to Cloover as Head of Energy & Operations ⚡ 🚀 Energy is becoming a core pillar of Cloover and Florent will build it from the ground up. With a PhD in Sustainability & Decarbonization and six years in renewable energy at McKinsey & Company, he’ll shape our Energy stack: a Home Energy Management System (HEMS) plus a dynamic electricity tariff that lets installers sell a full energy service package right at the point of sale. Together with Cloover’s checkout and financing flows, this gives more households easy access to renewables from day one and helps installers reach more customers with less friction - from technical offer to digital signature in under 3 minutes. Our platform is AI-optimized end to end, supporting installers and homeowners with smarter sizing & eligibility, demand and generation forecasting, and automated plan selection. So quotes are faster, decisions are clearer, and systems perform better over time. On operations, Florent will ensure this Energy stack scales predictably across markets with the right activation, quality controls, and monitoring. Why the dual role matters: uniting Energy and Operations shortens the loop from installer feedback → product decisions, reduces handoffs, and ensures we ship what the market needs - reliably and at scale. As Florent put it “Off to new horizons… After 6 years with McKinsey, I’m joining Cloover to lead operations and drive our energy product. I’m excited to work with this team on electrification in 🇪🇺.” Cloover is live with hundreds of installers across 4 markets—and with Florent’s leadership, Energy becomes a foundation for everything we build. Welcome aboard, Florent—let’s build the Shopify for the energy transition. 💙 #Energy #HEMS #DynamicTariff #AI #EnergyTransition #Operations #Product #Solar #HeatPumps #SaaS #Fintech #Europe

The Shopify of Energy isn’t a vision anymore, it’s live. In 8 months, Cloover scaled from €1m to €5m ARR - 5x - while reaching profitability. With €1.2bn in funding lines secured and hundreds of installers onboarded across 4 markets, we’re ready to scale to the next level. We’re building the operating system for millions of renewable installers worldwide to bring energy independence to every home. Big thanks to our customers, partners, and the whole Cloover team making this vision reality. The journey is just beginning. 🛸 Peder Broms Valentin Gönczy Cloover #EnergyIndependence #FutureOfEnergy #Innovation #Growth #Profitability #ARR

Wow, a lot’s changed in a year! Great seeing #Cloover featured and discussed at length with Peder Bromsand Brendan Le Grange and the team at How to Lend Money to Strangers pod. From bold predictions to actual scale—we’re proud of how far this thing has come. Well worth a listen: https://lnkd.in/d22Khn_F

Now is the time for bold decisions - not a fossil fuel revival. Germany's new Minister for Economic Affairs has announced plans for 20 GW of new gas power plants. But pouring billions into outdated fossil infrastructure is a step backwards. Instead, we should seize this moment to redesign our energy system: clean, digital, decentralized and accessible to everyone. 🌍 𝐀𝐭 𝐂𝐥𝐨𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫, 𝐰𝐞 𝐛𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐞𝐯𝐞 𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐰𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐠𝐲 𝐢𝐬𝐧’𝐭 𝐣𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐜𝐥𝐢𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 — 𝐢𝐭’𝐬 𝐞𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐨𝐦𝐢𝐜 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐨𝐧 𝐬𝐞𝐧𝐬𝐞. Electrification is the path forward. Not in the future, but today: Heating, mobility, and industry must be electrified intelligently. Batteries, flexible consumers like heat pumps and EVs, and smart grids make our energy system resilient and independent. Decentralization creates true energy sovereignty and lowers long-term costs — for everyone, not just a few. 📉 𝐈𝐧𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐚𝐝 𝐨𝐟 𝐞𝐱𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐠𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐧 𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐛𝐮𝐲𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐢𝐭 𝐛𝐚𝐜𝐤 𝐚𝐭 10𝐱 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐜𝐨𝐬𝐭, 𝐥𝐞𝐭’𝐬 𝐛𝐮𝐢𝐥𝐝 𝐥𝐨𝐜𝐚𝐥 𝐟𝐥𝐞𝐱𝐢𝐛𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲. That doesn’t mean more gas, it means smart infrastructure, digital innovation, and empowering households and businesses to actively participate in the energy transition. 💡 𝐖𝐞 𝐜𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐟𝐨𝐫: - A rapid and uncompromising expansion of renewables - A clear prioritization of decentralized solutions - A nationwide rollout of smart meters - A bold commitment to a digital, fair, and sustainable energy system It's time to align technology and policy — for an energy future that’s clean, inclusive, and built to last. #Cloover #EnergyTransition #Flexibility #SmartEnergy #Decentralization #GreenTech #Renewables #FutureNow
