Svea Solar is one of Europe’s largest residential solar companies, founded in a Stockholm apartment in 2014 by Erik Martinson and Björn Lind. It has completed more than 50,000 installations across six European markets — including the Iberian Peninsula — and runs a Lisbon operation serving Portuguese and Iberian customers with rooftop solar, home batteries and EV chargers.
Svea Solar started in a Stockholm apartment in 2014 and has become one of Europe’s leading solar installers, with more than 50,000 residential and commercial installations across six markets. Its core offer bundles rooftop solar with home batteries and EV charging, and the company also develops utility-scale solar parks as an independent power producer — partnering with large Swedish landowners such as Stora Enso and Sveaskog.
In Portugal, Svea Solar operates from Lisbon as part of its Iberian expansion, recruiting multilingual sales and customer-advisory staff to serve residential demand in one of Europe’s sunniest markets. Portugal’s high solar irradiation, rising retail electricity prices and self-consumption rules make it a natural fit for a residential-solar playbook the company refined in the cloudier, subsidy-driven Nordic market.
Svea Solar is a clean example of Nordic clean-tech following the sun south: a Swedish brand exporting an installation-and-financing model into a market with far better solar resource than its home base. As Portugal’s rooftop-solar and home-storage market accelerates, Nordic installers like Svea are well placed to scale — turning a Stockholm start-up into a participant in Portugal’s energy transition.
