Aerem names Anupam Agrawal COO at solar lender NetZero Finance
MUMBAI: Aerem Group, a full-stack platform for distributed solar, has appointed Anupam Agrawal as chief operating officer of its RBI-licensed subsidiary, NetZero Finance. The move sharpens Aerem’s push to unclog credit for rooftop solar as demand accelerates across homes, MSMEs and EPCs.
NetZero Finance bills itself as India’s only solar-focused NBFC, offering collateral-free loans for rooftop systems, supply-chain finance and a slick, app-led journey via Aerem. The platform says it has already enabled more than 1.2 GW of projects across industrial, commercial and residential users, working with EPC partners nationwide.
Agrawal, a chartered accountant and ISB MBA, brings nearly two decades across fintech and regulated finance. He has held senior roles at Edelweiss, Cars24 Financial Services, Drip Capital and Cashfree Payments, spanning strategy, underwriting, risk, operations and governance. His brief: build scale without wobble, launching new credit lines, hardening risk frameworks and keeping regulators comfortable.
The appointment underlines Aerem’s blend of fintech and clean energy. The group supports more than 3,200 EPC partners and estimates its platform, including AeROC monitoring and Aerem Asset Assurance, have helped avoid over 35 million tonnes of CO₂.
