Business Development Intern (m / f / d)

Energy suppliers face many challenges in their B2C business, including low margins, low differentiation of their electricity offers, emerging market players, unprofitable electricity trading, and limited IT resources.

Podero is a software platform for utilities that reduces the energy cost of flexible consumer devices like heat pumps, EVs and chargers, inverters, and home batteries by over 25%. Utilities roll out Podero using our white-label web app or integrating our API into their apps. Podero steers devices based on consumers’ PV production, fluctuating spot electricity prices, and the grid-stabilizing balancing energy markets. Podero enables utilities to trade the aggregate device power on the energy markets, ensuring a win-win situation for both utilities and consumers.

Customers of Podero include E.ON, TotalEnergies, oekostrom, KELAG, and more.

At Podero, we’re building the future of energy consumption – combining the power of smart software with everyday devices to transform how people consume energy. Our mission is bold : turn homes and their devices into the most powerful tool for reducing CO₂ and electricity costs. We’re early - and moving fast. We’re backed by leading investors like Planet A and Systemiq Capital and already working with major energy providers like E.On and Total Energies.
