About Kestrix:
Kestrix is on a mission to unlock energy retrofits of existing buildings at scale. To do this they are building the ‘Google Maps of heat loss’ – they commission thermal drones flights over whole neighbourhoods at a time, and develop computer vision and machine learning algorithms to quantify and map heat loss from buildings in 3D, as well as generate energy efficiency retrofit roadmaps. It is effectively the automated energy surveyor – or the data layer to power the climate transition of existing buildings.
