Founder and CEO
Amaterra Tech
Austin, Texas, United States
Hello! My name is Pranav Myana. I’m 19 years old, and the CEO/Founder of Amaterra Tech. A little background about me: My ancestry traces back to a small village in India, which I visited last summer. During the trip, I learned about a tragedy that occurred in the area. This tragedy was sparked by the inability of the government and energy providers to bring energy to my people. This made the primary industry of the town unable to produce goods. This led to hundreds of deaths, including those of my relatives. After I learned about this, I recognized how energy forms the basis of society — how we need it for everything we do. The next day, I decided to start Amaterra Tech. Our mission is to make sure that what happened to my people could never happen again. We want to bring low-cost, clean energy to every person on earth, regardless of their background.
Since then, I have set up pilots, become a 776 Fellow, and was invited to speak here, at RE+ 2023!
