PES caught up with Renu Robotics’ CEO Tim Matus to gauge the up-to-the-minute thinking on autonomy in the solar industry. Is it taking off and what direction could the latest technology be headed next?
PES: Thanks for taking time to speak to us again Tim. When we spoke earlier in the year, you explained much of Renu Robotics’ autonomous technology and how it’s being used in the solar industry for vegetation management. You mentioned then that things were developing fast for the company, so is the rate of growth still continuing?
Tim Matus: It’s great to talk to PES again and, yes, we’re still growing and fulfilling orders for existing customers and talking to new ones daily. As I mentioned last time we spoke, we’re four years old now and have more than doubled in size, as our primary core market remains US utility-scale solar power plants. We’re operating in 16 states, from Maine
to Hawaii.
