Envirogood is a Google-backed energy technology company developing advanced Digital Twin–based feasibility and compliance tools to accelerate the safe deployment of solar, storage, and blended energy projects, worldwide. The company’s mission is to remove uncertainty from clean energy decision-making by translating fragmented technical, regulatory, and site-specific information into clear, decision-ready intelligence for public authorities, infrastructure owners, developers, utilities, and investors. Envirogood’s platform combines Digital Twin modelling, AI-enabled analysis, drone-derived data, and regulatory logic to automate and standardise key stages of project development, including solar suitability, technical feasibility, grid readiness, investment assurance, and ongoing performance validation. This enables faster project development, reduced risk, and improved investor confidence across both grid-connected and off-grid applications. The company works closely with universities, hospitals, business parks, industrial estates, local authorities, and state-level energy institutions, supporting projects that deliver industrial decarbonisation, energy resilience, and inclusive energy access. Envirogood’s approach is particularly suited to anchor-infrastructure-led models, where large, creditworthy sites enable scalable deployment and wider community benefits. Envirogood is a participant in the Google Startups Innovate Program (SIP) and the Startups for Sustainable Development (SfSD) accelerator, reflecting its focus on climate impact, digital innovation, and scalable solutions for emerging and developed markets. Current work spans the UK, EU, and sub-Saharan Africa, including collaboration with public-sector partners, development agencies, and private stakeholders on energy market reform, distributed renewable deployment, and investment-grade feasibility frameworks. Envirogood’s tools are designed to align with development finance institution (DFI) standards, supporting bankable project pipelines and long-term sector transformation. By combining digital infrastructure, robust engineering logic, and policy-aware design, Envirogood enables governments and organisations to move beyond fragmented pilots towards repeatable, scalable, and financeable clean energy delivery.
