ZunRoof’s solar solutions: Smart utilisation of available electricity

ZunRoof’s genesis can be traced back to the long hours of power cuts that co-founder Pranesh Chaudhary sweated through, growing up in Muzaffarpur, Bihar. “Our lives seemed to come to a stop… having experienced this personally and realising that electricity expense is a costly affair for households, it inspired me to ensure that no house in India lives without affordable electricity,” says Chaudhary, who in 2016, set it up along with Sushant Sachan, both IIT Kharagpur alumni.

ZunRoof is now one of India’s largest residential solar energy rooftop installers; however, providing access to clean, smart and free electricity via solar was only the first half of the problem, the second half involved efficient utilization of this energy through IoT (Internet of Things). So, the next quest was to fulfill the increasing demand for affordable solutions in the smart homes segment.
