About the Business Model of HELIOS SOLAR AG

HELIOS SOLAR AG is not a traditional solar project developer but rather an integrated technology and solar platform. Its business model is based on three strategic growth pillars: Virtual Power Purchase Agreements (VPPAs), a large-scale solar park portfolio, and the digital StarPoints ecosystem.

Through long-term Virtual Power Purchase Agreements (VPPAs), HELIOS supplies businesses with renewable electricity via the public power grid, providing a flexible alternative to conventional rooftop solar installations. At the same time, the Company develops utility-scale solar parks as a long-term generation base for supplying industrial customers and participating in regional energy trading.

This offering is complemented by the StarPoints ecosystem, which rewards sustainable behaviour while connecting customers, energy consumption and digital value-added services. Through this combination of renewable power generation, electricity marketing and digital platform solutions, HELIOS SOLAR AG positions itself as an integrated provider supporting the energy transition in Southeast Asia and beyond.
