Shani Pandya
Shani Pandya, the founder of Powertree, is a visionary entrepreneur who is determined to make a positive impact on the world by solving some of the persistent challenges facing the planet. Shani’s background as the son of a teacher and a farmer from a tiny village in Gujarat, India, has instilled in him a deep sense of purpose and a passion for entrepreneurship.
Shani’s entrepreneurial journey began in 2014 when he co-founded a business incubator, where he mentored startups and helped more than 140 entrepreneurs to have a positive effect on the world through their products and innovations. He then moved on to his current business venture, Imagine Powertree Pvt Ltd, which has an ambitious goal of turning the entire planet Earth into a solar-powered planet.
Powertree’s focus on innovation, sustainability, and customer satisfaction makes it a promising player in the solar industry. The company has developed a proprietary solar product that can be planted like a tree, reducing ground space for solar by 98%, and allowing for solar installation in uncertain locations like median and side strips of roads, gardens, and other urban areas. This is a critical advantage in cities and infrastructure projects where land for solar installation is limited, and more than 1000 cities with renewable targets are struggling to achieve their goals.
Powertree’s Solar Tree, Floating Solar, Portable Solar Powered EV Charging, and other industry-leading solutions have earned the company 18+ design IPRs, 15+ national and international awards, numerous clients, and a rapidly expanding presence.
One of Powertree’s noteworthy features is its end-to-end solar solutions, from feasibility studies to installation and maintenance, empowering communities with solar technology. The company’s focus on reducing costs, increasing durability, and offering low-maintenance solutions has helped it stand out in the industry. Powertree’s solution for streetlighting is also commendable, demonstrating the versatility of the company’s solar solutions and their potential to contribute to sustainable development.
