TailorTech, a Malaysian startup focused on transforming power management for off-grid locations, has raised US$110,000 from Antler.

Founded by brothers Ts. Dr. Indera Shaiful and Ts. Indera Shafiq, TailorTech aims to tackle problems faced by industries that are reliant on generator sets in remote and off-grid locations, including inefficiencies, high costs, frequent maintenance, and the environmental impact associated with conventional generator sets.

TailorTech has developed the Power Enhancer System (PES), an integrated smart power management solution designed to optimise the use of generator sets. Engineered to reduce operational costs and carbon footprints, it provides a solution for industries where reliable, efficient, and sustainable power is critical and costly.

The PES shows potential for a wide range of off-grid generator-set users, including telecom tower operators, plantation estates, mining, construction sites, and rural villages and clinics. In regions such as Malaysia and Indonesia, these sectors frequently need suboptimal power solutions that lead to increased costs and environmental concerns.

While renewable energy sources are often considered viable alternatives, their economic feasibility in diverse and challenging locations remains limited. TailorTech’s PES addresses this gap by enhancing existing generator infrastructure with smart, efficient technology that reduces both costs and emissions.

TailorTech plans to deploy its first on-site installation as a proof of concept for a targeted client. This deployment will be a critical demonstration of the PES’s effectiveness and scalability, potentially paving the way for further investment opportunities and market expansion.

The introduction of TailorTech’s PES is timely, aligning with global efforts toward net-zero carbon emissions and sustainable energy solutions. Although the PES does not entirely eliminate carbon emissions, it offers a substantial reduction, making it a practical and immediate solution in the shift towards greener energy practices.
