Tigo Energy charges up with $10M for solar power balancing
Tigo Energy, a company that ties together hardware and software systems to improve solar array efficiency, has raised $10 million in a second round of preferred stock, reports VentureWire. By balancing power evenly across solar deployments, the service prevents outages, improves reliability and increases net energy generated, Tigo says.
It raised $6 million in a first round of funding last June from Matrix Partners and OVP Venture Partners.
