Sunmaxx and enerix enter into strategic partnership for PVT modules

Sunmaxx, the world's leading manufacturer of PVT modules, and enerix, the leading specialist chain for decentralized energy systems, announce their strategic partnership. The goal of the collaboration is the comprehensive marketing and implementation of Sunmaxx's innovative and highly efficient photovoltaic thermal (PVT) technology through enerix's nationwide franchise network.

With this cooperation, two pioneers of the energy transition are combining their strengths: Sunmaxx's high-performance hybrid modules meet enerix's long-standing market expertise and sales power. enerix will add Sunmaxx's PVT modules to its portfolio and equip buildings throughout Germany and Austria with a sustainable, space-saving, and economically attractive solution for electricity and heat generation.

"We are delighted that we have been able to win over enerix, such a large and important partner, for our hybrid modules," says Wilhelm Stein, MD of Sunmaxx. "Power and heat production with PVT is not only a sensible step from an ecological perspective, but also ensures low and, above all, predictable energy costs in the long term. No other system combines so many advantages in one product: year-round heating and cooling with solar energy and ambient heat – silent, climate-friendly, and at customer-friendly prices. Whether for a single-family home or an industrial hall, a densely built-up urban area or a water protection area: PVT is the power and heat supplier of the future and is suitable for almost every application."

Enerix is also enthusiastic: "With PVT, we are pleased to offer an optimal solution for buildings that can provide real added value for the energy transition," says Stefan Jakob, MD and Co-founder of enerix. "Especially where conditions aren't suitable for installing a PV system and an air-to-water heat pump, PVT is the right solution. It shows how energy efficiency can be achieved today."

Michael Gehenzig, Head of Sales at Sunmaxx, emphasizes the significance of the partnership: "The collaboration with enerix is of enormous strategic importance to us. This has multiplied our network of consultants and installers in one fell swoop and allows us to provide interested parties in almost every region with a skilled and experienced specialist partner from the solar industry. 

"Two energy sources, one system, one roof – with Sunmaxx, we now have the opportunity to advance the energy and heating transition with just one product and bring it into households," adds Peter Knuth, MD and Co-founder of enerix. "This is how we take another step toward a climate-friendly future."

With this partnership, enerix and Sunmaxx are sending a strong signal for the decentralized energy transition: with a renewable system that delivers electricity and heat simultaneously and can be operated year-round with minimal energy consumption.

A collaboration that will be rewarding for everyone involved: for Sunmaxx as the manufacturer, for enerix as the consulting and implementation company, and for all franchise customers who want to install the innovative technology on their roofs. PVT as a key technology for a zero-emissions future – economical, efficient, and now available nationwide. 

Thanks to the collaboration, PVT will be available nationwide in Germany and Austria in the future.
