Sustainable energy platform for Dutch businesses with distributed generation and smart grid control
Groendus is a Netherlands-based energy services company serving over 5,000 commercial customers with solar, battery, and EV charging infrastructure bundled with real-time energy management software. The tech stack—AWS, Azure, Databricks, .NET/C#, Angular—reflects a dual-cloud data and application platform. Active hiring across engineering, ops, and data signals scaling of both the physical supply chain (vehicle-to-grid integration, charging station management) and the digital layer (ML model productionization, forecasting pipelines). Firmware issues in deployed hardware and NIS2 compliance appear as near-term friction points.
Groendus helps commercial organizations in the Netherlands transition to renewable energy through integrated hardware and software solutions. The core service combines equipment (solar panels, batteries, smart meters, EV charging infrastructure) with digital tools for real-time energy monitoring, optimization, and peer-to-peer trading via their Energiemarktplaats. The business is scaling both the physical distribution footprint—reflected in supply chain optimization and supplier engagement projects—and the technical platform, with active work on system renewal, machine learning forecasting, and NIS2 compliance. Founded in 2021, the company operates as a private firm with 51–200 employees across engineering, operations, and data functions.
Groendus runs on AWS and Azure (including Azure Firewall, Security Center, Entra ID), with Databricks for data processing. Applications are built in .NET/C# with ASP.NET Core and Angular frontends, using SQL Server, Entity Framework, and Azure DevOps for CI/CD.
Active projects include vehicle-to-grid integration, ML model productionization for forecasting, system renewal, financial reporting improvements, supply chain optimization, and NIS2 compliance implementation. Hardware challenges like charging station firmware issues are also in focus.
