À propos de nous
Notre mission : Piloter la transition énergétique.
Driving the Energy Transition
Fondée en 2021 aux Pays-Bas, Chapter est une entreprise SaaS européenne dont l'objectif est singulier: accélérer la transition énergétique en permettant aux entreprises du secteur de l'énergie durable de travailler de manière productive, efficace et conforme.
Founded in 2021, Chapter began as Chapter Academy: an initiative that inspires and guides people with potential (often from other sectors or facing job insecurity) towards a career in solar energy. Through an accessible app, candidates follow a hands-on, 'InstallQ-accredited' basic course and receive personal guidance towards employment with installation companies. This way, Chapter provides motivated new rooftop technicians who are immediately deployable and contribute to growth.
From this practical experience, Chapter AI was born: a smart, AI-powered knowledge and support tool, specifically designed for manufacturers, installers, and distributors in the energy sector.
