Storuman Energi Partners with Ropo for Streamlined Invoicing

Storuman Energi is an electricity trading company rooted in Västerbotten that delivers electricity to customers across Sweden. To meet increasing demands for digitalization and customer expectations, the company is now taking the next step in its partnership with Ropo.

The collaboration with Ropo began in 2012 with paper invoice distribution. In 2025, it will expand to include Ropo’s comprehensive solution for invoice delivery, reminders, and collections. This new arrangement establishes a more integrated, digital, and efficient process that meets both internal needs and customer requirements.

“We see Ropo more as a partner than a supplier. There’s a sense of teamwork that ensures we’re moving in the same direction – and that is crucial for a successful project,” says Jerry Ådén, Invoicing Manager at Storuman Energi.

From manual to modern

The background for this expanded partnership stems from two key factors. On one hand, Storuman Energi seeks to fulfill increasing digitalization demands and customer expectations for modern communication channels – particularly the ability to offer invoices via Kivra. Previously, there was no solution for this, which led to many documents being handled manually or through limited digital tools.

“This change will bring a significant improvement by avoiding the need to send documents manually. Soon we’ll have a better flow, shorter lead times, and a solution that matches customer expectations,” says Jerry.

At the same time, a larger transformation is underway within the group aiming to harmonize systems and working methods between Swedish and Norwegian operations. Achieving this requires a more cohesive and scalable solution – with fewer suppliers and clearer responsibility distribution.

“We want as few suppliers as possible so we can focus more on our core business,” Jerry explains.

Why Ropo was chosen

When Storuman Energi sought a partner, it was crucial to find a supplier that could offer both breadth and reliability. Ropo presented a complete end-to-end solution for invoice distribution, reminders, and collections at a competitive price, coupled with the capacity to support Storuman Energi’s digitalization needs. Additionally, Storuman Energi felt confident in Ropo’s experience with similar projects.

“I had a good feeling right away. It felt reassuring that they had the experience and could push the project forward,” says Jerry Ådén.

Together for continuous improvement

With a stable foundation in the expanded collaboration, Storuman Energi looks forward to continuing to refine its processes together with Ropo. The next step is to work more actively within Ropo’s platform and collaboratively identify improvements that create even greater value, both for the business and for the end customer.

“We don’t want to simply follow up on deviations; we want to focus more on continuous improvements. It’s about developing processes and working methods together – with customer satisfaction as the priority,” Jerry concludes.
