Kaluza wants to power a world where net-zero is within everyone’s reach, by building the platform that will accelerate a sustainable, affordable and resilient energy transition. It’s a huge challenge, but often the toughest problems are the most rewarding to solve. Since launching in 2019, Kaluza’s technology has been empowering some of the biggest energy suppliers to better serve millions of customers. From revolutionising billing to smart electric vehicle charging, our real-time cloud platforms transform supplier operations, reducing cost to serve and boosting engagement. And most importantly, they enable suppliers' customers to drive decarbonisation with smart, low carbon technologies. We have a strong flexible, hybrid working ethos, we aim to be as flexible as possible to balance work with life. Teams can choose how and where to work, whether it’s from one of our lovely offices or from home or a mixture of both. Each team is different but we do like to get together monthly/quarterly as teams - if they are not at your local office we will cover the costs of travel and accommodation if necessary. As a company we come together annually for our conference and end of year celebrations!

This not only saves them money, but enables society as a whole to meet the challenge of decarbonising transport and residential heating/cooling. We’re also supporting this vital shift by building the innovative technology behind unique, market-leading customer propositions like Vehicle to Grid and Drive Anytime Energy Plan with our energy retailer partners.
