Solar energy for millions of apartments
For a long time, photovoltaics have been available for businesses or family houses only. That is something we wanted to change. Instead of building yet another solar panel manufacturer or installation company, we brought to life Domy sobe – a unique photovoltaic solution for apartment buildings with a potential across CEE.
introduction
Solar panels have the potential to vastly improve people’s lives in several ways. They help reduce carbon emissions, sustain the environment, save money on energy bills, and increase households’ independence from Russian fossil fuels.
For ordinary people, photovoltaics are the easiest way to get their own source of renewable energy. This rings true for the millions of residents who live in apartment buildings and other similar housing stock structures in the CEE region – especially in the former Eastern Bloc.
Our main contribution
Domy sobe provides affordable and reliable photovoltaics for millions of apartment dwellers. On top of that, its unique smart home web app, Dominiq, increases convenience, control, and security.

About
55% of Czechs live in apartment buildings. 52.5 years is the average age of Czech apartment houses.
The Czech Republic in particular is unique in Europe in having up to 55% of its inhabitants living in apartments. Their average age of these apartments is over 50 years and entire housing estates of socialist-era apartment blocks are – similarly to other CEE countries – energetically obsolete. That’s why in 2020, together with Veolia, we came up with the Domy sobe service. Thus, offering convenient and reliable PVE to millions of Czechs who live in apartment buildings.
