QuantE Energy Tech Private Limited, a cleantech startup delivering distributed solar and renewable energy solutions for residential communities, has raised $500,000 in seed funding from Trillion Dollar Venture (TDV) Partners along with marquee angel investors including Raghunandan G (Zolve, TaxiForSure), Amit Lakhotia (Park+), Ankit Gupta (Brookfields, ex-OYO), and Hari Krishnan Nair (Great Learning). The company has also secured additional debt financing.
Founded in 2024 by Akshat Khare and Ankush Vashisht, QuantE is addressing challenges like high upfront costs, poor servicing, and lack of smart monitoring in residential solar adoption. Its AI- and IoT-powered platform offers solutions such as energy profiling, predictive maintenance, innovative financing, and digital onboarding—making clean energy affordable, transparent, and scalable for housing societies and households.
QuantE has already deployed pilot projects across 13 housing societies in Mumbai, Pune, and Delhi NCR, delivering AI-driven diagnostics and cloud-based energy management with promising results.
The startup aims to expand its digital onboarding to all metro cities within the next 6–12 months, launch community solar pilots, and strengthen financing partnerships with banks, NBFCs, and CSR programs.
“This investment accelerates our mission to bring clean energy to markets that have been largely overlooked. We are using technology and innovative financing to make solar adoption seamless and as reliable as any other essential service,” said Akshat Khare, Co-founder, QuantE Energy Tech.
“QuantE’s focus on democratizing clean energy access aligns perfectly with India’s sustainability goals. The team’s deep understanding of distributed energy markets and their tech-first approach positions them to capture this massive opportunity,” added Ujwal Sutaria, Founder & GP, TDV Partners.
With India targeting 500 GW of renewable capacity by 2030 and the residential solar segment representing a $25 billion market opportunity, QuantE is well-positioned to drive adoption in a sector that has remained largely underserved.
