Markets
The EnergyPod makes it possible to produce electricity locally without reliance on imported/transported fuels. Because of this, off-grid renewable energy systems are now seen as a potential replacement for both traditional diesel-based off-grid systems, and for existing grid-systems. Thus, providing a care free, transportable, 100% renewable off-grid solution for customers in remote locations.
The EnergyPod can be used as a generator for standby, emergency, prime or continuous power supply for mid- to lower power requirements for the following markets.
With the company Corrosion have we/they created a separated dedicated website for the our new ICCP-Pod tech for the offshore wind market.
Market Sectors
Non-Government Organisations (NGO’s)
NGO’s form one of the biggest support groups for development countries worldwide. It supports various initiatives from clean water and medical support to supplying communities with basic amenities. Most of this support takes place off-grid and in very remote areas. The EnergyPod provides cost effective, all-in-one, plug and play power support for various NGO initiatives across the globe.
Disaster relief
It is a reality that large scale destructive natural disasters are now occurring more frequently than before. These disasters are disproportionately affecting areas with electrical infrastructure that cannot withstand the event. Portable renewable energy storage systems like the EnergyPod require no external fuel, saving costs, weight load and cargo space. The EnergyPods can be deployed either by truck, helicopter or boat for immediate power support in areas hit by natural disasters. No need to transport fuel or perform maintenance as is required by diesel gensets during these crisis hit areas.
The EnergyPod can support the following systems:
- Emergency relief communications
- Domestic lighting
- Camp security
- Medical facilities
- Information and communications technology
- Street lighting
- Water pumping
- Telecommunications
Water works
Power support for remote areas for filtration, pumping, purification and desalination for clean water. The EnergyPods have plenty of internal space available to include water filtration systems inside to provide a combo of clean water and power in off-grid locations.
Remote off-grid communities
Power provision for houses and cabins; lighting, heating, refrigerators, fans, TVs, radio and cell phone battery charging for:
- Island communities
- Farming communities
- Remote hospitals
- Off-grid villages
Telecommunication/ Weather monitoring systems
The EnergyPod can act as mobile reception relay, which provides additional signal coverage in remote areas. It can also act as a remote weather data center and support:
- Radio/television relay stations
- Telephone devices
- Stations for data surveying and transmission (meteorological, seismic, indicating the presence of fire and level of watercourses)
Airports
Airplanes and helicopters require a Ground Power Unit (GPU). These GPU’s can be either a fixed or a mobile unit, which can be connected to the electrical system of an aircraft while on the ground to provide 120V AC or 28V DC power.
A GPU forms part of the Ground Support Equipment (GSE) which is essential to support aircraft during maintenance and standby purposes on the ground.
Lighthouses
Providing power for lighthouses on and off the coast has always been a challenge due to the harsh environment and limited space. With its small footprint, the MonoPod is a compact, self-sufficient power plant which can support lighthouses with their load requirements.
Construction industry
The construction industry forms a valuable part of the global economy and energy plays a crucial role in this success. Our EnergyPods can help this industry to reduce their CO2 footprint by supporting the following systems with renewable energy:
- Power tools
- Compressors
- Battery chargers
- Surveillance for the protection of building terrains, gas, oil pipelines and other types of piping
- Provision of power for limited electric charges in the order of a few kW
Agriculture
The global agriculture industry forms the basis of food production, and energy plays an important role in its success and sustainability. Our EnergyPods can help this industry to reduce their CO2 and NOx footprint by supporting the following systems with renewable energy:
- Water-pumping installations
- Micro-drip irrigation systems or automatic irrigation
- Livestock watering and management
- Electric fencing
- Automatic feeders
- Surveillance systems
