About Puneet Sandhu
In 2019, Puneet Sandhu led the development of EcoGrid, a distributed energy management platform adopted by over 400 micro-manufacturers across Maharashtra to cut diesel dependency by 62% while maintaining production uptime. Unlike most green-tech founders who prioritize venture scalability over operational grit, he spent 18 months embedded in textile clusters near Solapur, co-designing hardware interfaces with factory floor technicians, resulting in a low-bandwidth, vernacular-language UI that reduced technician training time by 70%. His approach treats sustainability not as a compliance layer but as a systems constraint that forces smarter architecture: every algorithm in his stack must pass a 'jugaad audit', verifying it works offline, on ₹2,000 Android devices, and without cloud dependency. That pragmatism has shaped India’s first SEZ-certified green-tech incubator in Pune, where startups are evaluated on kilowatt-hours saved per rupee of capital deployed, not just valuation multiples.
