"Nocca Robotics is a startup founded by two graduates of IIT Kanpur, and includes alumni from Carnegie Mellon and Indiana University as part of its core team. In its journey over the past 18 months, Nocca Robotics has developed an innovative, water-less cleaning solution (Nocca S100) for utility solar plants. This is a field-tested and proven solution, which has been accepted by some of the leading solar project developers in the country.
Nocca S100 helps solar plants run at peak production & has the potential to save billions of liters of clean water, when deployed at scale. Its biggest USP is that it is a lightweight system, which can be manually shifted between rows, thereby reducing the number of robots required per MW - this makes it the most cost-effective solution available in the market currently! We have already filed our patent for this technology."
