About Agnipankh

Engineering India’s first portable, 100% ethanol-powered generator.

A clean, cost-competitive, sustainable alternative to conventional diesel and petrol gensets — designed, built, and certified in India, powered by an indigenous fuel economy.

The mission

Decarbonize distributed power. We’re engineering India’s first portable 100% ethanol-powered (E100) generator to enter the CPCB-ARAI Type Approval process — proving that ethanol can replace diesel at industrial scale.

Competitive moat

Dual-strategy intellectual-property defense: provisional patents on the structural innovation, plus strict ‘black box’ trade secrets around core engine calibration. Hard to copy, hard to commoditize.

Supply chain

Capital-efficient, dual-continent design. Established Brazilian procurement for core engine units, integrated with localized Indian manufacturing for cabinet, controls, and assembly.

Sustainable trajectory

Aligned with India’s National Biofuel Policy and net-zero pathway. Carbon-credit eligible. Long-term partnerships in motion with utilities, corporates, and rural communities.

Core execution team

Founder-led. Engineering-first.

Two founders with deep industrial backgrounds — driving certification, manufacturing, and pilot deployment with aerospace-grade discipline.

SP

Suresh Patil

Co-Founder & CEO

Leads development of OttoE100 — the 100% ethanol-based power generation system. Owns engineering architecture, certification strategy (ARAI, CPCB), pilot planning, and regulatory coordination. Drives certification-first, pilot-led execution aligned with PSU deployment standards.

SC

Sarthak Choudhari

Co-Founder & COO

Owns manufacturing and production readiness, supply chain and vendor management, plot deployment execution, quality compliance and process control, cost and operational efficiency, and scale-readiness planning. Brings aviation-grade discipline from Air India Engineering Services Ltd.
