Meteoric Technologies, founded by two Cambridge engineers, wants to deploy fleets of autonomous drones into low- and mid-altitude clouds above solar farms to alter water droplets and reduce cloud reflectivity without chemicals. The startup claims this could boost annual power generation from existing solar assets by 10-30%, though this figure comes from a computer model rather than field measurements at an actual solar farm. Its only public evidence so far is a claimed 13% dissipation of an artificial cloud in an undisclosed cloud-chamber test.
