One of the main proprietary products they have is a fully automated solar cleaning bot. The aim of the developers was to come up with an engineering solution that could improve the performance of solar power plants both on large and small scale.
After observation they discovered that the leading challenge with the current solar plants was reduced solar radiation intensity due to impurities being deposited on the surface of the solar panels. The main impurity being dust. The immediate solution to this was cleaning the solar panels frequently in order to minimize the loss of efficiency and allow as much radiation as possible to reach the photovoltaic cells of the panels.
Having discovered the problem, solavio labs developed a fully autonomous modular solar cleaning bot that works with the conventional solar cleaning methods.

Solavio Labs envisions one day making a big merger with one of the largest manufacturers of solar panels so that their solar cleaning bots are sold together with the solar panels. These will enable them to sell on large scale and also increase their market reach. They also aim at reaching all countries in the world that are using solar power and making their products global. Currently their solar cleaning bots are sold in all continents. Solavio Labs signed an MoU with the Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (DEWA) to develop and supply Autonomous cleaning Bots for their solar plants. DEWA is directly owned and run by the Govt of UAE and interestingly DEWA owns the largest single site Independent Power Producer plant in the world, The Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Solar Park. Solavio Labs is the first start-up in India to be incubated and supported by DEWA.
