The Challenge

Lack of Access to Clean and Efficient Energy Sources
Lack of access to clean and efficient energy sources has thus been proved as one of the significant barriers to alleviation of poverty. Success in electrification services can be achieved by boldly confronting the difficulties that have incapacitated the power sector for decades and by adopting a multi-pronged approach to re-vitalizing energy services in the state, such approach has been taken up by Cygni Energy.

The Smart Village Solution

Create solar energy microgrids in partnership with Cygni Energy, a company creating renewable energy solutions for India. This reduces energy prices for consumers, improves utility returns, and increases ROI for solar power generation and storage.

Cygni Energy is a new-age Energy Generation, Storage, and Processing Technology Solutions Enterprise. As of hybrid and off-grid solar systems, they are rethinking energy with game-changing battery technologies, a vital part of the future of the electric grid.
