Want to build amazing tech for the renewable energy sector?
Glint Solar is an Oslo based venture capital-funded startup accelerating the growth of solar energy by satellite data and machine learning. As climate change is getting more dire, an important strategy to mitigate the dire consequences is for the world to increase the amount of solar energy installed. Both land-based solar and increasingly floating solar are growing at a tremendous rate. To further accelerate this development, we’re building a unique technology that identifies and analyzes potential project locations for solar developers around the world.
The team’s background includes data science, software development, energy and management consulting. Our goal is to be the world’s leading solar site data provider and we have already started working with some of the leading energy companies globally despite our young age. We are a Top 50 European data driven startup - are you ready to help us accelerate further?
