Why Wegaw?
We help energy companies to reduce renewable energy imbalances, increase trading efficiencies and detach from fossil fuel reliances, by monitoring renewable energy sources like water and snow.
No need for in-situ hardware & no regional dependencies:
our leading-edge integrative & proprietary technology combines AI and machine learning with data analytics across multiple earth observation platforms (NASA, ESA, JAXA) for local insights even in inaccessible regions.
Reduce uncertainty introduced by third-party models:
directly observed data sets are more accurate than interpolated data thanks to our novel SAR-based (Synthetic Aperture Radar) snow detection system
that has been validated on two continents.
Highly scalable and secure:
SaaS-based with demonstrated global deployment supported by robust software architecture, all developed and managed in Switzerland.
Internationally accredited R&D:
our services have been internationally and nationally accredited through partnerships with the European Space Agency and the Swiss Space Office since 2018, as well as academic collaborations with UCL and Imperial College London since 2021.
Ingrained end-to-end sector expertise for ESG impact:
clean energy production and trading, accompanying the digital transformation and sustainability transition of both old and new industry players.
International talent ecosystem:
dynamic team of experts and synergistic advisers, delivering commercial value through scientific insights for our partners and clients.

Our commitment to the United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals

A successful global transition to clean energy will require substantial investment into new technologies and infrastructure.
We offer a cost effective solution for renewable energy asset optimisation.
Global warming – which has now reached 1.1°C above pre-industrial levels – is mainly driven by anthropogenic emissions. To limit warming to below 1.5°C, countries have united in their commitment to transition to clean energy within fast-approaching targets.
The elimination of atmospheric CO2 caused by the burning of fossil fuels, can only be achieved through the effective management and efficient use of renewable energy resources. By relying on our SaaS based system, energy producers and traders around the world can position themselves competitively to deliver on their decarbonisation plans.

From Mountain Resorts to Transforming the Energy Industry.
We started offering alpine tourism destinations and ski resorts ways to improve their operations through space data. And it worked so well that we pivoted our solutions to solve a broader range of sustainability challenges faced by the energy industry: We now deploy our refined technology and solutions for companies to generate more value by optimizing renewable energy assets.
We are hungry, daring and ambitious. It shows in our track records from CERN, UCL, technology companies like Hewlett Packard and impact institutions like the United Nations. The combination of different disciplines like telecommunications engineering, geospatial technology and environmental science is key to how we innovate. We love to co-create, and it shows in how we work.
Today, we offer a game-changing ecosystem to help forward-thinking energy companies transition towards clean energy.
