Cydee Technologies

Cydee Technologies Private Limited, founded in 2017 by Monika Jha, is a clean-tech company based in Bengaluru, India, focused on enhancing public safety through advanced lighting solutions. The company's inception traces back to Jha's final year engineering project on street light automation at R V College of Engineering, Bengaluru. During her research, she identified significant inefficiencies in public lighting, such as underlit and over-lit areas, which inspired her to establish the company.

The firm specializes in manufacturing and deploying patented, high-dispersion LED and solar-powered streetlights. Its core technology allows for a reduction in the number of light poles needed to illuminate an area, claiming that three of its lights can replace five conventional ones for the same stretch of road. This leads to substantial cost and energy savings, estimated at up to 40% and 30% respectively. The business model targets public and private sector clients responsible for managing public lighting infrastructure. By optimizing illumination based on international standards and incorporating IoT for real-time data analysis, Cydee aims to improve the safety of roads in developing countries.

The company was incorporated on December 9, 2017, and operates as a private, non-government entity. It has been supported by various incubators and accelerators, including FISE - Social Alpha, AIC Banasthali Vidyapith Foundation, and POWERED Accelerator.
