Problem
A significant portion of solar energy production is lost due to a lack of local consumption options, hindering the efficient use of renewable resources. Current administrative and technological complexities also impede the development of collective self-consumption initiatives, limiting community involvement in sustainable energy practices.
Solution
Jane provides a SaaS platform and mobile application designed to streamline the sharing of locally produced solar energy between individuals and communities. The platform connects solar installations to a local network, enabling users to share surplus energy with neighbors or redistribute it across communal buildings. Jane automates the technical and administrative aspects of collective self-consumption, simplifying the creation and management of local solar energy communities. By facilitating direct energy sharing, Jane reduces energy waste, lowers electricity bills, and fosters community engagement in renewable energy adoption.
Target Audience
Jane targets municipalities seeking to optimize local solar energy usage and reduce energy costs, as well as individuals with solar installations looking to share surplus energy with their communities.
