Meet Southern Lights
Southern Lights was founded in June 2022 by Felipe Gallardo, Anton Frisk and Gustav Ekberg. Our core business is to revolutionize the production of green fuels by providing digital tools that streamline the development of profitable projects based on green hydrogen.
Southern Lights is based in Stockholm, Sweden, but we are an international team from different countries, all committed to make a significant impact on the world. We develop our product with customer experience as core value, rely on data-driven approaches and tackle our challenges in a systemic and sustainable way.
Our mission is to replace fossil fuels in heavy industry by enabling green hydrogen at scale. Our software is made by leading experts in project energy development and software engineering.
After more than 10 years in business and project development, I saw how clean energy companies struggled with evaluating, optimizing, and designing projects, all while managing big risks on tight budgets. I knew there had to be a better way.
Together with the founders of Southern Lights, we developed software that merges our expertise in project development with technical and economic insights. We have created a reliable tool for everyone involved — from developers to banks.
