https://befc.global

BeFC offer a sustainable and eco-friendly solution for practical energy generation whilst minimizing impact to the environment. We believe our approach will not only allow the replacement of batteries for existing applications, but also open up new opportunities for low-power ultra-thin health monitoring, logistics / transportation monitoring, and Internet of Things (IoT) applications. We have invented a paper-based, ultra-thin, flexible and miniature bioenzymatic fuel cell system. Our technology uses biological catalysts instead of chemical or expensive noble metal catalysts to convert natural substrates such as glucose and oxygen into electricity. Our products exploit enzymes, carbon electrodes and paper microfluidics, all of which provide a sustainable and environmentally-friendly method of generating energy. The devices can be operated with just a drop of solution, from tap water to biological fluids.

Lancey Energy Storage developed the first intelligent radiator (Capella), a 3-in-1 product, a latest-generation intelligent electric radiator, with an embedded storage capacity and a cloud-based Energy Management System (EMS). The Capella has been developed and launched on the professional market: It integrates the notion of bidirectionality, allowing the electricity stored in the battery to be used to power other electrical appliances in the home or to feed electricity back into the network. In 2020, the product is industrialized, and the commercial strategy foresees sales to individual customers end of 2021 via a network of installers. Partnerships with energy suppliers and developers of self-consumption PV installations are in progress to integrate the solution into the offerings of these players for these audiences. The company won several prizes in France and worldwide with the CES innovation award in 2018 and the Solar Impulse efficient Solution award in February 2020.
