Meteoric
Founders
Meteoric (YC S26) is a San Francisco-based deep-tech startup building fleets of autonomous drones that fly into low- and mid-level clouds above solar farms and mechanically alter water droplets to reduce cloud reflectivity, allowing more sunlight to reach solar panels below. The process requires no chemicals and no new ground infrastructure, with modeled projections of 10-30% more annual electricity output worth $5,000-$28,000 per megawatt. The company's longer-term vision is to scale the same atmospheric technology to weaken severe storms and hurricanes.
