Hi, I'm Tanmay Meshram

Early-Career Energy and Climate Analyst

Bridging renewable energy systems with ESG strategy and financial modeling. Passionate about driving real-world impact through analytical thinking and clean energy innovation.

About Me

Energy Science graduate with hands-on experience in renewable systems

I'm a recent B.Tech graduate in Energy Sciences from Atria University, specialized in renewable energy systems, ESG frameworks, and sustainable innovation. My journey combines technical depth in solar PV design, wind energy modeling, and energy auditing with strategic thinking in financial analysis and policy.

Through internships at Variate Solar, Earthood, and Avaada, I've gained practical exposure to grid-scale solar installations, carbon market standards (VCS, Gold Standard, GCC), and technical analysis of utility-scale renewable projects. I've worked with tools like PVsyst, MATLAB, and System Advisory Model to design, simulate, and optimize energy systems.

What drives me is the intersection of technology, finance, and sustainability policy. I believe clean energy transition requires not just technical solutions, but robust economic models and strategic frameworks. I'm eager to contribute to organizations working on energy consulting, ESG strategy, or climate tech innovation.
