Renkube develops a motion-free tracking system embedded in solar panel glass that uses AI to achieve orientation without mechanical trackers. The company positions its smart glass design as a lifetime, zero-maintenance alternative to mechanical trackers that add ~15% capital cost and require upkeep. Renkube claims the technology is integrated into the glass and intended to replace motors and gears used in large solar farms. With seed funding, the firm plans industrial-scale manufacturing of its glass design and to obtain certifications. It intends to demonstrate the technology with customers in India, the US, and Australia. The company will start by focusing on the solar photovoltaic market and later enable use cases including integrated solar rooftops, agricultural PV, solar water heaters, and solar balconies.
