Kronos Solar

At the heart of Kronos Solar lies a deep-seated commitment to pioneering the green energy transition. Founded in 2009, the company has established itself as a formidable Solar Powerhouse, dedicated to making utility-scale solar farms a reality across key European markets, including Germany, France, the Netherlands, and the United Kingdom. The culture at Kronos Solar is one of dynamic action and entrepreneurial spirit, combining the agility, speed, and reliability of a German 'Mittelstand' company with the financial strength and global reach of a major corporation. This unique blend was significantly amplified in 2022 when EDP Renewables (EDPR), a global leader in renewable energy, acquired a 70% stake in the company. This partnership marked a pivotal step forward, empowering Kronos with a robust balance sheet and the capability to develop, build, own, and operate most of its solar parks for their entire lifetime, often without the need for external project financing.

The team at Kronos Solar thrives in a pragmatic, solution-oriented, and dynamic environment characterized by flat hierarchies and a shared enthusiasm for sustainability. This culture fosters a sense of ownership and responsibility, where every team member contributes directly to the company's success and the broader mission of a subsidy-free future for solar energy. The collaboration with EDPR has not only provided financial muscle but also access to global innovation, allowing for the integration of wind, green hydrogen, and battery storage solutions into their projects. This forward-thinking approach ensures that Kronos remains at the forefront of the renewables sector, able to tackle complex projects and accelerate the transition to clean energy. The company's commitment extends to its partners, landowners, and municipalities, with a promise that Kronos's word stands strong, ensuring that all commitments are honored and projects are carried out with the utmost respect for local communities and environments.
