Another interesting opportunity lies in value-added services. Imagine getting an alert before your solar
inverter fails (predictive maintenance) or having AI-powered insights that tell you the best times to buy
or sell energy (energy optimization). These services can be offered as premium features. For prosumers people who both produce and consume energy - detailed analytics dashboards help them optimize their
energy usage and maximize returns from their installations.
Combining basic transaction fees with these higher-value services, energy platforms can build
sustainable business models while helping India transition to cleaner energy. The market is there - it's
just a matter of building the right solutions to capture it.
Request for Startups
UEI Integration Platform for Existing Infrastructure
Why?
Building infrastructure from scratch is capital-intensive and time-consuming. Instead,
startups can collaborate with established players who already have operational networks.
How
Partner with solar installers or EV charging operators like Kazam or ChargeZone, which
have UEI-enabled networks. These partnerships reduce time-to-market by providing
access to an existing customer base
Focus on creating value-added services such as dynamic pricing models, predictive
maintenance, or user-friendly discovery platforms for charging stations.
Example
An EV-focused startup could integrate its app with UEI to provide users with seamless
access to all charging stations in a region, eliminating the need for multiple apps.
