Since March 2024, over 100 ElectronicPartner members have joined the WENDEpunkt concept and obtained certification. These are electronics retailers and stores seeking to enter the photovoltaic (PV) systems market. Thanks to partnerships with specialized service providers, participating members can offer their customers complete solutions, from planning to installation. Tasks that the businesses cannot perform themselves are handled by these expert partners. In this way, ElectronicPartner provides an optimal solution for innovative electrical retailers.
heat pumps: A key to the energy transition
At Solar Solutions, WENDEpunkt will officially launch its heat pump offering, providing tailored sales solutions for this crucial technology. “In cooperation with established service providers and premium brands, we offer not only innovative products but also the expertise needed to successfully integrate heat pump technology into existing business models,” explains Christoph Eickmanns, Project Manager of WENDEpunkt.
WENDEpunkt is now specifically targeting businesses already specializing in photovoltaics and other renewable energies that are not yet part of a strong cooperative network. Many of these companies face the challenge of finding the right expertise and qualified staff for heat pump installations. “This is where we come in, offering customized solutions to help these businesses expand their product range and provide their customers with optimal all-in-one solutions,” says Christoph Eickmanns. Training IHK-certified professionals plays a key role in this approach. “And where sufficient staff are not available, our partner network can step in to support,” he adds.
Thanks to membership in ElectronicPartner, these companies benefit from being part of a strong cooperative buying group. With WENDEpunkt, they gain not only attractive purchasing conditions but also extensive sales support, marketing services, HR solutions, and much more. The WENDEpunkt concept is the ideal partner for businesses focused on products and services that drive the energy transition.
Smart electricity tariffs for a sustainable future
Another highlight at the WENDEpunkt booth at Solar Solutions will be the presentation of smart electricity tariffs. Particularly in connection with electric mobility and the use of heat pumps, these tariffs can help reduce operating costs and optimize energy consumption.
“With smart tariffs, we enable our partners to offer their customers hourly billing based on real-time electricity market prices. This ensures fair and transparent pricing—and our electricity comes exclusively from renewable sources,” emphasizes Christoph Eickmanns.
By participating in Solar Solutions 2024, WENDEpunkt demonstrates that the brand is continuing to strengthen its position in the renewable energy sector and is opening up to a wider audience starting in 2025. Following the successful implementation of the first projects, Christoph Eickmanns’ team is steadily growing.
“We offer our partners a complete solution to help them join the energy transition and guide their customers into a sustainable future,” concludes ElectronicPartner board member Friedrich Sobol.
