Berlin-based GIGA.GREEN, a developer and operator of solar and EV charging infrastructure, has raised a €30 million revolving capital expenditure facility from Kommunalkredit Austria AG to accelerate the rollout of its solar-as-a-service model across Germany.
The financing will allow GIGA.GREEN to expand its decentralized solar network, scale operations, and support a fast-growing project pipeline helping industrial and commercial clients transition to clean, affordable energy—without upfront investment.
“We’re grateful for the trust and partnership of Kommunalkredit,” said David Wagener, Head of Finance at GIGA.GREEN. “This flexible financing structure is perfectly tailored to our needs and allows us to scale our projects efficiently and sustainably.”
Making solar accessible for every business
Founded in 2018 by Sebastian Schmidt and Wolfgang Robig, GIGA.GREEN helps companies tap into renewable energy through a zero-investment solar model. The company handles planning, financing, installation, and operation of photovoltaic systems, while businesses simply lease their rooftops and benefit from long-term, low-cost solar power.
Beyond solar, the company provides battery storage and EV charging infrastructure, creating a full-service platform that simplifies the transition to clean energy for industries facing rising energy costs and stricter carbon-reduction targets.

Backed by sustainable finance
The €30 million facility is provided by Kommunalkredit Austria AG, a Vienna-based infrastructure bank specializing in renewable energy, environmental protection, and social impact projects. The bank’s investment in GIGA.GREEN underscores its mission to support decentralized, resilient energy systems across Europe.
“With this funding, we can accelerate our Germany-wide project portfolio—focusing on industrial rooftops and large-scale solar systems,” said Wolfgang Robig, Co-founder and Managing Director of GIGA.GREEN. “Our long-term mission is to save one gigaton of CO₂ by helping businesses adopt clean energy with zero upfront costs.”
A flexible model for rapid scaling
The revolving structure of the financing enables GIGA.GREEN to align capital with project milestones, freeing up resources as revenues are generated from operating assets. This approach ensures sustainable scaling as the company continues to grow its national footprint.
The new facility follows a €25 million equity raise in July 2025 from Ichigo Inc., a Japanese sustainable infrastructure firm. Together, the two funding rounds give the company the firepower to deploy more photovoltaic systems, expand its solar-as-a-service offering, and strengthen its role in Germany’s energy transition.
“Our goal is to make it as easy as possible for companies to embrace sustainability,” Robig added. “With every rooftop we convert, we move closer to a cleaner, more independent energy future for Europe.”
