Last week, General Manager Tom Koot and Founder Bart Wansink visited the Solar & Storage exhibition in Birmingham. Their presence highlights Search4solar’s ambition to enter the UK market and establish strong local partnerships.
“Search4solar was built with a founder’s mentality: scalable, transparent, and focused on growth. We believe the energy transition can move faster when suppliers and installers can connect more easily. Our mission is to become the go-to marketplace where supply and demand for solar panels, inverters, and batteries meet – and now we are ready to bring this to the UK,” says founder Bart Wansink.
The timing is crucial: across Europe and the UK, solar module and battery prices are showing an upward trend due to increased demand and tightening supply chains. By connecting suppliers and installers directly, Search4solar enables its users to secure competitive deals and reliable delivery, even in a market where prices are under pressure.
Today, Search4solar connects over 10,000 users – from installers to EPC companies – with distributors and manufacturers across Europe. In recent months, the platform has already helped multiple customers access better pricing and faster availability of solar panels, supporting projects both large and small.
With its expansion into the UK, Search4solar is actively looking for new partners: distributors, manufacturers, and suppliers who want to showcase their products to thousands of professionals in the solar energy sector.
“The United Kingdom is a natural next step for us. It’s a large, dynamic market moving rapidly towards solar and storage. By partnering with us, suppliers gain direct access to a wide network of buyers, while installers benefit from transparent pricing and stronger supply security. Together, we can set a new standard for transparent trade in solar products,” adds General Manager Tom Koot.
