With over 7 years of experience in the environmental services and renewable energy domain, Divya’s career choices have been motivated by the need to make an impact in the sustainability sector. Graduating as a Chemical Engineer from Anna University, she spent a couple of years in a techno-commercial role in a company that designed, constructed and operated water treatment plants. Post this, she pursued a Master’s in Renewable Energy Engineering and Management from Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, Germany, and Instituto Superior Tecnico, Portugal. After moving back to India, she worked on a few short-term projects in the electric mobility space, involving battery swapping technology and as a project manager in implementing a small-scale off-grid wind turbine system to power a remote village in Hosur. She also spent a few years working in the strategy and commercial operations team for a company that developed digital solutions for power forecasting and preventive maintenance, specifically for wind and solar plants. When not at work, she dedicates her time to pottery and loves spending time at the beach with her family. She strongly believes in adapting nature-based solutions and creating a circular economy-based production and consumption model to address several of our climate change-related challenges.
