We are PowerUs
Our mission to make skilled blue-collar work attractive
Picture a future where we successfully tackle challenges like climate change and the energy transition. Yet, skilled blue-collar workers stand as the primary bottleneck to achieving this necessary transition.
Millions of solar panels, wind turbines, and EV chargers await installation. A staggering 85% of all buildings need to be refurbished, including upgrades to energy systems, heating, windows, roof, and beyond. This vital work predominantly falls upon the shoulders of skilled blue-collar workers from traditional apprenticeship jobs.

Our Customers
At PowerUs, we help companies of all sizes and industries grow by finding and hiring valuable team members. Our supported companies build houses, install solar panels and charging infrastructure, and even create robots that cook your lunch. Here are a few of our selected customers:
Enpal, Germany's first Green-Tech Unicorn, provides solar power systems for homeowners. To install thousands of solar systems each month, Enpal built its own electrician team. Since day one, we've supported Enpal in finding motivated electricians for their team.
Service4Charger is one of the fastest-growing installers of wallboxes and charging infrastructure in Germany. Since partnering with us, they hired their first electrician through PowerUs, followed by every subsequent colleague.
