Cambridge, MA – June 26, 2025 – Terawatt Energy today announced the launch of a new end-to-end platform designed to make solar energy more affordable and accessible for families and small businesses burdened by rising energy costs. Using a simplified process powered by AI, Terawatt helps consumers easily identify and implement affordable solar energy solutions.
“Energy insecurity is a growing threat to the prosperity of our communities. Families should not carry the financial burden of rising energy costs when there are alternative solutions. Solar is the cheapest way to make electricity in most of the U.S. and yet it has been out of reach for those families who could benefit most,” said Uzonna Mkparu, founder and CEO of Terawatt Energy. “Our mission is to address systemic barriers to solar access by reducing friction, increasing transparency, and empowering the consumer to make informed decisions.”
Terawatt sits at the center of a unified and automated experience, connecting families and businesses to installers and finance solutions, making the transition to solar seamless and cost-effective. Through easy-to-use AI powered tools, consumers can:
• Gain valuable insight into personal home energy use
• Get an immediate assessment that includes system specs, cost and energy production
• Review competitive offers from local providers while maintaining control of privacy and personal data
• Explore and evaluate multiple financing options and incentives
• Access customer service though a personal AI agent and energy coaches
“There’s a perception that transitioning to solar energy is complex, time-consuming and costly. We wanted to tackle that head on and make the process seamless and intuitive for people,” said Ivo Montenegro, Chief Technology Officer at Terawatt Energy. “Our AI-powered platform helps demystify and untangle the complex regulatory market, so that people can make their own decisions. We also prioritized transparency, data protection and privacy as a core feature for additional peace of mind and ensured that the platform accommodates multiple languages – all to benefit families and make solar energy more accessible.”
Massachusetts will be the first of multiple pilot states as the company continues to expand its network and footprint. Terawatt is supported by a Massachusetts Clean Energy Center (MassCEC) EmPower implementation grant designed specifically for organizations to implement community-based programs that increase access to the benefits of clean energy and/or reduce the energy burden on previously underserved populations. MassCEC is a state economic development agency dedicated to accelerating the growth of the clean energy and climate tech sector across the Commonwealth to spur job creation, deliver statewide environmental benefits and to secure long-term economic growth for the people of Massachusetts.
“Terawatt Energy’s innovative approach to simplifying solar adoption will help expand equitable access to affordable clean energy solutions,” said Lisa Dobbs, Senior Program Manager at MassCEC. “By leveraging AI and prioritizing community needs, this platform has the potential to transform how underserved households navigate and benefit from the transition to solar power.”
Through automation, Terawatt Energy is uniquely positioned to tackle the onerous soft costs associated with solar energy installation.
"The Terawatt Energy platform is a big step forward for the industry. It helps installers operate more efficiently, simplifies a complex process and reduces soft costs. It will also address a critical gap in our communities. The AI-powered technology puts families and small businesses on a clearer, faster path to going solar. Data privacy and a seamless user experience translates to a smarter, more connected ecosystem that benefits everyone, said Abdu El Refaiy, Chief Operating Officer at NRGTree. "We’re proud to be an early partner in this journey and excited to build a future together that connects residents in our communities to the economic benefit of affordable and abundant clean energy solutions."
