About UsAt VREY, we're building the EnergyOS for multi-family buildings.Germany has over 3.3 million apartment buildings — and they are the blind spot of the energy transition. <1% solar penetration. <2% smart metering. Almost no flexibility or intelligent energy management.At the same time, regulation is forcing property owners into major investment: solar is becoming mandatory, smart meters must be rolled out nationwide within five years, heating and mobility are electrifying. The apartment building is transforming from passive real estate into an active part of the decentralised energy infrastructure.What's missing is an integrated system that makes this transition economically viable and operationally manageable.VREY combines certified meter operation with proprietary software, enabling property owners to sell self-generated solar power directly to their tenants — simply, and without having to become an energy supplier themselves (42b EnWG). Regulatory obligation becomes a profitable, predictable opportunity:Double-digit returns and asset appreciation for owners,~20% electricity cost savings for tenants, anddigital infrastructure for storage, heat pumps, and flexibility.We already manage a three-digit number of projects — including some of Germany's largest property holders and housing cooperatives — in all 16 federal states. In the course of our seed financing, we raised €3.3M from leading impact and energy VCs (including Rubio Impact Ventures, HTGF, and Kopa Ventures). We're now entering the next growth phase and expanding our team.We're at the beginning of a structural market shift.
