I was really hesitant to chance providers after nearly a decade with SWM, because I believed getting out of contracts in Germany was a pain, specially as a foreigner. With Octopus, it was the complete... See more

Wir gehen die Klimakrise an
Als EnerTech-Pionier treiben wir die Energiewende weltweit voran und liefern Menschen rund um den Globus 100% Ökostrom und einen herausragenden Service. Octopus Energy ist seit 2016 auf dem Markt und hat schon über 7,7 Millionen Kund*innen. Die Energiewelt der Zukunft - 100% enkeltauglich, 100% digital Die Zeit drängt und wir glauben, dass die Klimakrise nur mit globalen Lösungen gemeistert werden kann und mit einem Blick jenseits des nationalen Tellerrands. Lokale Aktivitäten sind zwar gut, haben aber nicht genug „Power“, um in Sachen Klimaschutz schnell genug etwas zu bewegen. Nur günstiger Ökostrom kann fossile Energiequellen schnell genug ersetzen, etwa als klimafreundliche Alternative beim Heizen und im Verkehr. Wir setzen auf Digitalisierung und Nachhaltigkeit, um Energiemärkte weltweit zu revolutionieren und einen großen, grünen Fußabdruck zu hinterlassen, oder besser einen Tentakelabdruck! 🌎💚

outstanding customer service

This review was long due... One year ago I decided to change my gas and electricity provider. Octopus caught my attention because of their competitive price, modern look and smooth subscription process.
Before subscribing I contacted the customer service to clarify one point of the contract and I had the best customer service experience ever! Max Reiner went above and beyond to answer my questions in English and help me navigate the German specificities of the contract. It was very reassuring.
This definitely convinced me to subscribe to Octopus services.
Now, one year later, at the time of renewal of my contracts Max was still there for me and offered me 2 very competitive offers to renew my gas and electricity contracts with Octopus.
I am impressed by the level of customer service delivered and I am very grateful for it.
Thank you Max!

Company with professional, efficient and empathetic staff

As a mediocre German speaker I can't thank them enough for their English assistance, kindness and patience. Special thanks to Kevin, an example for any energy specialist in Germany. Maximum efficiency in identifying and solving the problem, perfect English and providing SOLUTIONS! We need companies with trained, empathetic staff like him.
2nd communication with Octopus staff, 2nd problem solved, different to 99% of the companies I've met, which are full of untrained, sometimes slightly aggressive and inefficient staff.
Thank you Octopus, thank you Kevin!

I am satisfied with my experience with Octopus Energy Germany. The entire onboarding process was remarkably simple, clear, and efficient. Setting up the contract was straightforward and required minimal effort, which I greatly appreciated.
What truly stands out is the transparency and reliability of their service. Octopus Energy delivers exactly what they promise—no hidden surprises, just honest and consistent service.
