Lumenaza
|
The idea for the company came about during a visit to a family celebration in a small village in Franconia. Virtually everyone there generates green electricity. But strangely enough, you could not buy the electricity anywhere, and it was often dependent on non-transparent offers. They thought that an approach that has worked well for food foryears should actually work even better for regional electricity.That idea sparked the development of their software, which uses sophisticated algorithms to ensure a secure and balanced supply of green electricity in regional communities. The software has been operational and available on the market since the beginning of 2014. They have already implemented many projects with municipal utilities, project developers, energy cooperatives and new energy players - initially with the approach of introducing regional electricity products.And in 2016, they developed their software into a “utility in a box” solution and can now offer all the services of an energy service provider in a modular and highly automated way. | $7.9M / Series B / Jun 08, 2021 | |
HELIOVIS AG
|
HELIOVIS, an engineering and development company, offers an innovative technology to generate clean Solar Heat for Industrial Purposes (SHIP) in a temperature range from 90°C to 550°C. The technology allows cost advantages of -55% (CAPEX) and -20% OPEX compared to modern glass mirror systems. The technology has reached TRL 7 and has beendemonstrated with a full-size industrial application in Spain since 2017. The company is looking for a strong and entrepreneurial partner for scale up and international roll out.The HELIOtube® is an innovative solar collector for Solar Thermal Power (STP). It is an inflatable tube-shaped structure made of three highly durable, industry proven plastic films with a length of 220 m, an aperture of 7.8 m and a thermal power of 0.9 MWpth. It works in the same way as a parabolic trough by concentrating sunlight on a linear thermal receiver.The collector provides clean thermal energy (industrial heat) in a temperature range of 90°C to over 550°C for up to 24 hours per day. With its highly competitive and stable price levels, it is perfectly suited for e.g. emission-free water desalination and many other industrial processes normally powered by fossil fuels and economically unattractive for solar competitors.The technology is protected by an extensive IP portfolio (12 patent families, 65 patents, and 2 trademarks), all in the entire and unrestricted ownership of the company. |
