A solution to rising energy costs? Meet Arysun, a climatetech startup that is making solar energy more accessible for everyone by keeping prices low. Now, they just raised $575K in pre-seed funding!

Investor check. Wavemaker Impact led the round, while the First Move Fund joined in. 

🔤 The ABCs of Arysun

Solar adoption is a great way to save on electricity bills (and reduce carbon emissions). But it can be costly for some people. 

  • Arsun helps middle-income households adopt solar with flexible payment options — either full payment upfront or a 24-month installment plan with 0% down payment. 
  • They do location surveys across the Greater Jakarta Region. 

☀️ What’s next? 

They’ll expand their founding team and accelerate solar installations in Indonesia, their primary target market. 

Plus, they’ll build partnerships with local financing institutions, installers, and suppliers.

  • Oh, and they’ll also develop and pilot a digital solar adoption platform.
