— Jul 21, 2026
Gritt, a startup founded by Carnegie Mellon engineers, has raised $34 million to develop AI-powered robotics that can operate on outdoor solar-farm construction sites, aiming to speed installations and alleviate labor shortages in the rapid solar rollout. By leveraging off-the-shelf hardware like rented robotic arms, Gritt’s AI systems automate the loading and precise placement of solar panels, potentially dramatically increasing daily installation throughput.
