Global demand for energy is increasing exponentially and the need for innovation in this area has never been more apparent. In many developed nations older infrastructure is causing crippling electrical grid capacity issues while the general public is calling for more alternative energy options to fuel homes, businesses and vehicles. Additionally, many developing nations are struggling to generate enough power to fuel their growing economies. We believe new innovations to improve energy storage and efficiency, and to make alternative energy more readily available are critical to global economic growth in the next decade and beyond.

Enerpulse specializes in developing environmentally friendly ignition products through the application of pulse power technology. Their newest innovation, Pulstar™ is a unique and patented one-piece pulse plug that aims to replace current spark plugs and capture a significant share of this $3 billion market in addition to a share of the high-performance aftermarket. Pulstar™ pulse plugs generate up to 1 million watts of power, resulting in significantly more torque and lower emissions than the current spark plugs on the market. Pulstar™ has also demonstrated a 2.76% increase in fuel economy in an EPA certified test. In comparison, a 1% increase is considered significant by current automaker standards. Pulstar™ pulse plugs are becoming increasingly widely available in major auto aftermarket channels.. SAIL co-leads this investment with another venture investor.

Kokam is the primary manufacturer of the patented Superior Lithium Polymer battery (SLPB) technology, a state of the art, commercial off the shelf battery. This product is considered to be amongst the highest energy and power density batteries in the market today, delivering 20C continuous and 40C pulse on an ultra-high capacity cell. This technology was derived from traditional Lithium-Ion technology but has two important advancements- a flexible form factor allowing for shortened evolution time from a prototype to a large scale commercial production cell, and an improvement in safety due to the reduction of physical impedance of the cell. The SLPB technology was developed, designed and patented in South Korea.

FlexEnergy produces clean energy from waste gases that others cannot use. The company’s primary product is the FlexPowerstation™ which generates electricity with reduced emissions from Btu gas that conventional powerplants cannot process. This significantly expands the range of fuels that can be used to generate power. The FlexPowerstation™ is a small, module power plant that operates efficiently with a wide range of fuels including landfill gas made up of as little as 1.5% methane, gas from oil refining and coal mining, and fuel gas that is near atmospheric pressure. Neither a gas compressor nor a fuel conditioner is needed to operate the station.
