PV Doctor

What PV Doctor does

PV Doctor Pte. Ltd. is a Singapore-headquartered Asset Performance Management provider for solar PV (and increasingly BESS) assets, spun out of the Solar Energy Research Institute of Singapore (SERIS) at the National University of Singapore on April 2, 2025 to commercialize more than 15 years of photovoltaic performance research. The company's core product is an AI-driven Smart O&M platform that ingests real-time inverter portal data (integrated with 12 major inverter brands including Huawei, Sungrow, SMA, SolarEdge, Enphase, and Tesla), satellite imagery, and meteorological feeds to monitor performance, detect anomalies such as soiling, shading, grid disturbances, and component failures, and isolate losses from curtailment and grid unavailability via its proprietary Smart Generation Replicator. The product layer is complemented by add-on services covering preventive maintenance, on-site rectification, repowering and inverter revamps, independent audits and REC due diligence, and bespoke technical advisory for M&A and tendering; a Drain Clip installation solution addresses equatorial soiling. As of May 2026, PV Doctor monitors over 2 GWp across 2,000+ systems in 22 countries spanning Asia, Australia, Europe, and the Americas, with a team of 20 professionals across Singapore, Thailand, and India.

PV Doctor operates a hybrid GTM: a product-led growth motion offering free Smart O&M to residential systems through end of 2025 and a three-month free trial for C&I (30 kWp–3 MWp) customers via self-serve registration, layered with enterprise field sales for PV developers and large portfolios (>3 MWp) on custom multi-year contracts. Distribution combines direct sales with regional channel partners (e.g., Impact Home Thailand, Holar Solar, SolarTouch Thailand) and event-led demand generation at IEEE, EU PVSEC, Asia PVSEC, ISES, SNEC, and Solar Quarter. The monetization mix is anchored on recurring Smart O&M subscriptions, with professional services and one-time repowering/audit projects as supplementary revenue; pricing is not publicly disclosed and varies by system size and geography. Named clients include Defence Collectives Singapore Ltd, Skye Renewables, and H Nu Energy, and the company has published what it describes as the first Singapore PV Systems Performance Benchmarking Report, covering 14% of national installed solar capacity.
