Mission
Raptor Maps is building the integrated operating system for the solar industry, enabling the industry to scale and meet global climate goals.
With intelligence for the entire solar industry, our solar management platform (Raptor Solar) provides the tools and the system of record that asset owners, managers, O&M, developers, and EPCs need to build, manage, and operate their solar sites. Raptor Solar improves asset resilience and energy yield, reduces risk and costs, and ultimately increases the rate of return of solar assets.
Thanks to our deep partnerships with leading OEMs and operators, we are at the forefront of module and equipment anomaly detection, robotics deployment on solar sites, and asset management best practices. Our global engineering and technical teams support solar operations across six continents.
Our Impact and Experience
Our Founding Story
Founded by two MIT engineers, Raptor Maps pioneered both drone-based aerial thermography of solar sites and delivering the results of those inspections through interactive, map-based digital twins so that solar owners and operators can get the most out of their inspections.
Since then, our platform has evolved alongside the solar industry to bring more robust performance and asset optimization insights, automate time-intensive and manual processes, and provide tools to bridge the gap between insight and action in order to empower the people who power our world with the tools they need to build a cleaner energy future.
