With over 8 years of specialized experience, Skilancer Solar designs, manufactures, and integrates waterless robotic cleaning solutions across India and international markets.
Founded by solar industry engineers, Skilancer Solar emerged to solve a critical operational loophole: solar panels in high-irradiation regions (like Rajasthan, Gujarat, and the Middle East) lose a massive share of their daily generation capacity due to fine dust soiling. Traditional manual washing is water-wasteful and highly cost-inefficient.
Our engineering team spent years testing and calibrating brushes, materials, and telemetry links in active desert environments. Today, we are proud to support over 1.5+ GW of solar capacity with fully automated, waterless robotic systems that recover generation yield by up to 15%–18% without using a drop of water.
Skilancer Solar operates a dedicated manufacturing and R&D facility in the DLF Industrial Area of Faridabad, Haryana. As an ISO 9001:2015 certified manufacturer, we perform strict quality check procedures on every single robot before site commissioning:
Co-Founder & Chief Executive Officer | IIT Jodhpur Alumnus
Neeraj Kumar is an IIT Jodhpur alumnus and solar engineering leader with over a decade of hands-on experience across utility-scale solar arrays. Recognizing that severe soiling losses and water scarcity were crippling solar plant yields across India and global desert belts, Neeraj co-founded Skilancer Solar to revolutionize solar Operations & Maintenance (O&M).
Under Neeraj’s leadership, Skilancer Solar has manufactured and deployed close to 2,500+ waterless cleaning robots across 14+ states, secured key state government MoUs (such as with the Government of Andhra Pradesh), and raised VC backing from Venture Catalysts and Alfa Ventures. Neeraj also steers sister AI energy ventures Solset.ai and Solset.in.
From an IIM-Lucknow incubated idea to one of India’s most deployed robotic cleaning companies.
Skilancer Solar is founded by solar-industry engineers to solve soiling losses without water, and is incubated at IIM-Lucknow.
Waterless robots are field-proven in desert conditions; the company raises seed funding from Alfa Ventures and later Venture Catalysts to scale operations.
Installations expand across 14+ states with leading IPPs and EPCs, backed by an ISO 9001:2015 certified manufacturing facility.
Launch of AI-enabled, SCADA-monitored robots and a dedicated waterless range for residential and commercial rooftop solar.
2,500+ robots installed, keeping 1.5+ GW of solar capacity clean while saving over 100 million litres of water.
A rare combination of in-house robotics manufacturing, EPC execution and long-term O&M under one roof.
Robots designed, built and quality-tested at our own ISO 9001:2015 facility — not rebadged imports — so quality and support stay in our control.
Every solution is built around dry, PBT-bristle cleaning — ideal for water-scarce, high-soiling regions where wet washing is costly and unsustainable.
From turnkey EPC to robotic cleaning to 24/7 O&M and AMC — a single accountable partner for the full lifecycle of your plant.
Our robots and EPC services keep the fleets of leading developers, IPPs and enterprises generating at peak efficiency.
Skilancer Solar is part of a small group of ventures applying automation and AI to the energy sector. Sister companies Solset.ai and Solset.in build AI-driven software for solar asset management, drawing on the same field experience gained from Skilancer's robotics and O&M operations.
