Neel Tamhane
Neel is currently leading business and technology explorations at SPACE10 (IKEA-supported independent research & design lab). At SPACE10, Neel is responsible for identifying opportunities for how solar energy can become a key enabler for communities with limited means to improve their everyday life at home. Additionally, Neel is responsible for exploring how IKEA could lead democratization of clean energy globally, by researching and designing new solutions that enable many more people to harness the power of the sun.
Having worked and interacted with various renewable energy social enterprises that work in energy access space in South Asia this role has to lead him to work on establishing over 178 renewable energy-based mini-grids across India with a total installed capacity of 7 MW. This directly impacted over 80,000 individuals, 5500 shops and 1300 micro-enterprises. These mini-grids also converted 150 telecommunications towers from diesel to renewable energy-based operation.
Subsequently, Neel led the design, implementation, and assessment of the world's first peer-to-peer energy trading platform for decentralized renewable energy systems which is deemed to be the future of energy utilities globally. The platform in Bangladesh has already impacted over 15,000 lives and has enabled users to step up to tier 3 and 4 in the multi-tier framework for energy access (defined by the World Bank). More than 20,000 nanogrids are expected to be operational by the end of 2030, which are expected to supply more than 1,000,000 customers in Bangladesh, including interconnecting them to the national grid through a single point of common coupling
