From Idea to Reality in Seconds: Abhinav Girdhar Defines 2025 as the Year of Autonomous Creation

Abhinav Girdhar, Founder, Appy Pie

“As we close out 2025, it’s clear that we have moved beyond the era of merely ‘using’ AI and entered a phase of truly ‘partnering’ with it. This was the year the digital divide finally began to close in a meaningful way. In the no-code ecosystem, we have evolved from simplifying development to enabling Autonomous Creation—where the gap between a human idea and a fully functional software ecosystem is now measured in seconds, not lines of code. At Appy Pie, we believe 2025 proved that the most powerful thing you can give an entrepreneur isn’t just a tool, but the confidence that their imagination is the only limit they have left.”

Freyr Energy Launches India’s First Intelligent Self-Cleaning Solar Technology and Advanced Hybrid Systems

Dec 30: Freyr Energy, India’s leading residential solar solutions providers, announced the launch of India’s first intelligent self-cleaning solar systems and next-generation hybrid solar solutions. These new offerings solve two of the biggest problems faced by home solar users—dust on solar panels and frequent power cuts.

Dust can reduce solar power generation by up to 30% if panels are not cleaned regularly. The company’s groundbreaking Intelligent Self-Cleaning Solar System employs advanced sensor-based technology with water-efficient cleaning mechanisms that automatically maintain optimal panel efficiency. This first-of-its-kind innovation in India boosts energy production while eliminating manual maintenance requirements and reducing water consumption by 90% compared to traditional cleaning methods. For several home owners across India where dust levels are high, this technology transforms solar from a maintenance-intensive investment to a truly hassle-free energy solution.

Complementing this innovation, Freyr Energy’s next-generation Hybrid Solar Systems seamlessly integrate on-grid functionality with battery storage, ensuring uninterrupted power supply even during grid failures. These systems enable intelligent energy management, allowing users to store surplus power for peak demand periods while significantly reducing electricity bills and grid dependency.

“States such as Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra, Telangana, Andhra Pradesh and Kerala represent a pivotal market in India’s solar revolution,” said Saurabh Marda, Co-Founder and Managing Director, Freyr Energy. “Freyr Energy’s intelligent self-cleaning technology is a game-changer in the face of a deepening crisis, shaped by dust-heavy streets, and weather patterns that trap pollutants. Combined with our hybrid systems, we’re not just solving existing challenges—we’re making solar more accessible and profitable than ever before. With a payback period of just 3-4 years, a stronger policy push and awareness about government subsidies in the country, there has never been a better time to go solar in these states.”

Residents switching to solar can benefit from combined central and state government subsidies. While Uttar Pradesh provides subsidy up to ₹1 lakh – the highest in the country, Madhya Pradesh offers a substantial subsidy up to ₹78,000. In addition to the central government’s PM Surya Ghar Yojana subsidies, the Kerala government is supporting residents through state-led assistance for net metering arrangements under the Soura programme making solar adoption more affordable than ever. This substantial financial support across states, coupled with Freyr Energy’s innovative technology, ensures a rapid payback period of just 3-4 years and free electricity for the next 20+ years.

Freyr Energy has emerged as the leading solar provider in the Telugu states, recording the highest number of installations across the region.

With over 12,500 installations nationwide and 120+ MW of installed capacity, Freyr Energy is strategically positioned to support Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra, Kerala, Telangana and Andhra Pradesh’s renewable energy ambitions and contribute to India’s target of 500 GW renewable capacity by 2030.

The company has already witnessed significant traction across its several operational cities in Uttar Pradesh (Lucknow, Kanpur, Prayagraj, and Varanasi), Madhya Pradesh (Jabalpur, Indore, Bhopal, Sagar,Ujjain,Katni,Rewa,Satna,Gwalior), Maharashtra(Nagpur, Pune, Nashik, Aurangabad, Solapur), Kerala (Trivandrum, Cochin, Calicut, Alappuzha, Thrissur, Palakkad), Telangana (Hyderabad, Khammam, Nizamabad, Karimnagar, Mahbubnagar, Warangal, Nalgonda, Sangareddy) and Andhra Pradesh (Vishakapatnam, Rajahmundry, Bhimavaram, Kakinada, Eluru, Srikakulam, Ongole, Nellore, Kurnool, Chittor, Kadapa, Vijayawada, Tirupati, Vizianagaram) —with demand for rooftop and hybrid solar systems surging, driven by increasing electricity costs, dust-related maintenance concerns, and Freyr Energy’s comprehensive after-sales support backed by flexible financing options through leading financial institutions. Freyr has 10 solar experience centres empowering 7 lack customers across India.
