In this series we explore some of the successes of Newcastle University’s startups and spin-out companies.
In this episode, we talk to Johnson Fernandes, Founder and CEO of Newcastle University start up, Equiwatt.
The free Equiwatt app has created an energy-saving community who are helping to reduce electricity use when it is at its dirtiest and most expensive in exchange for up to £150 of rewards per year.
Find out how Johnson is using technology to save energy and help the planet and his advice for anyone starting up their own business. Find out more about Equiwatt and download the app at https://www.equiwatt.com/
