Govinda Upadhyay, CEO & Founder
“I have always been very environmentally conscious. My journey with my first start-up (a solar ed-tech) exposed me to the ground realities of solar PV systems across the globe. The amount of lost potential in the next five to ten years, and the e-waste that the solar industry will generate, was very alarming to me. Solar plants are getting sick and we need an affordable solution to diagnose them.”
Govinda was included in the Forbes 30under30 list for his dedicated work in the energy domain. He also received the prestigious Swiss Ambassador award 2018 for his work in Education. He graduated from BITS Pilani, India, and did his Masters in Sustainable Technology from TU Eindhoven and KTH Sweden. He went on to pursue research in climate science and renewable from EPFL, Switzerland. He was conferred with the European Innovation and Technology (EU) Change Award.
Eddy Walker, Head of Investment at Swiss Alternative Bank
“SmartHelio’s diagnostic algorithms and smart edge sensor enhances the performance of the solar plant. We see great opportunities for this innovation to have a positive impact on the photovoltaic solar market and thus make an important contribution to the spread of renewable energy.”
TATA
“Industry’s pressing issues like, optimum cleaning-cycles to minimize water-usage and in-situ module degradation estimation for insurance claims need precise measurements of module parameters during operations. We’re excited to get some great insights from Smarthelio’s sensors in our plants which would never be possible with current datasets.“
Verena Lübken, Innovation Manager at Energie 360°
“The analysis of SmartHelio can provide insights into a solar plant, previously not available at all. Their analysis also helped us to identify necessary repairs to improve the yield.”
