Renu Robotics, based in San Antonio, Texas, has developed innovative autonomous technology for the solar and energy industries, including an all-electric vehicle that can mow during the day or night, cutting vegetation management costs and carbon emissions. PES spoke to CEO Tim Matus to find out more.
PES: Tim, it’s good to talk to you again. Last time we interviewed you was late last Summer, 2021, so we’re eager to hear about how Renu Robotics has been growing and the latest on the company.
Tim Matus: Thank you and it’s great to talk to PES again. Yes, we’ve been growing at an accelerated rate since we last spoke and have been busy fulfilling orders for existing customers and talking to new ones. We’re now four years old, have more than doubled in size and our primary core market remains US utility-scale solar power plants. We’re operating in 14 states and will be in 17 by autumn. When we talk to new customers, one of the first things they say to us is ‘We wish you guys had been around years ago.’
