About us

Discover how we became the unrivaled leader in the building-integrated solar roof market

From the very outset, SunRoof has been on a mission to accelerate the world’s transition to sustainable energy in a way that is easy and without compromise in terms of quality and design. We firmly believe that solar energy should be accessible to all, ensuring a cleaner future for you, your family, and our planet Earth.

Solar power pioneer

The company was founded by Karol Kaniuk, the CPO and the brain behind the technology. His goal was to develop an integrated solar roof known for its aesthetics and top efficiency. SunRoof gained momentum in 2018 with the joining of his brother, Lech Kaniuk. Lech brought experience from building successful brands like Delivery Hero, PizzaPortal, and iTaxi, which catalyzed rapid growth.

Possibilities of SunRoof worldwide

After our success in Sweden, equipped with knowledge, experience and strong funding, we started a dynamic, global expansion. In 2019 SunRoof also strengthened its leadership team with Martyn Szczepankowski (lawyer, founder and ex-Expert CEO), who has been driving forward the next stage of development plans in the CEE region.

In 2024, Michael Jakal joined SunRoof as CEO to lead the next phase of growth and focus on scaling the company’s impact in the Building-Integrated Photovoltaic (BIPV) sector.
