Problem Statement

India has massive rooftop solar potential — but 80% of it goes untapped.

Not because people don't want solar, but because:

  • No one knows exactly how much energy their specific rooftop can generate — generic calculators are wildly inaccurate
  • Banks and NBFCs reject solar loans because there's no reliable energy yield proof
  • Installers give inflated ROI estimates, eroding consumer trust
  • Slum clusters, small factories, and Tier-3 towns are completely ignored by existing tools

The gap isn't technology. It's hyperlocal, trustworthy, actionable intelligence.


Our Solution — GreenLens

GreenLens is a hyperlocal solar energy intelligence platform that provides precise, site-specific solar yield estimates for any rooftop in India — generating reports that homeowners, lenders, and installers can actually trust and act on.

Unlike generic calculators that give the same answer to everyone in a state, GreenLens treats every rooftop as unique. A 50m² roof in Patia, Bhubaneswar gets a completely different prediction than a 50m² roof in Cuttack — because the irradiance, dust levels, shading patterns, and local electricity tariffs are different. That specificity is what makes GreenLens useful in the real world.


The Core Problem We Solve Differently

Most existing tools answer one question: "How much solar can I generate?"

GreenLens answers five questions in one flow:

  1. How much can my specific rooftop generate? — Using real NASA satellite data for your exact GPS location
  2. How much money will I actually save? — Using your city's actual DISCOM electricity tariff
  3. What government subsidy do I qualify for? — Auto-calculated from PM Surya Ghar rules
  4. Who should I call to install it? — MNRE-verified, rated, local installers near you
  5. Can I get a bank loan for this? — Yes, because we generate a bankable PDF certificate no other tool provides
