Description
## 1KOMMA5°
At **1KOMMA5°**, we pursue a clear vision: **Living on wind and sunlight forever for free**. To make this a reality, we are building the energy system of the future with Heartbeat AI. Want to be part of it?
We bring together regional craftsmanship and scalable software: We don't think of solar, batteries, heat pumps, and e-mobility as isolated components, but control them as an intelligent, integrated overall system in our virtual power plant. Directly connected to the electricity market – in real time, fully automated. This way, energy is used when it is available from renewables and particularly cost-effective. By 2030, our goal is to transition 1.5 million households to renewable energies. Over 3,000 people are working towards this every day, at more than 80 locations worldwide, from Finland to Australia.
**Want to take responsibility and build solutions that truly matter? Apply now and help us shape the energy world of tomorrow.**
