Singapore-based solar-as-a-service startup Solar AI Technologies has secured US$1.5 million in a seed funding round led by Earth Venture Capital with participation from Undivided Ventures, Investible, and climate-tech angel investor David Pardo.

The funds will primarily be used to upscale its rent-to-own (RTO) solar programme in the island nation before embarking on regional expansion in the next 12 months.
