THE PROBLEM • Access to sustainable and affordable renewable energy sources in Africa.
One of the greatest challenges in Africa is energy.
THE INNOVATIVE SOLUTION The CQE energy cube is a self charging solid state battery that uses moisture in the environment to produce power. Our Technology exploits the energy released at the combination of Hydrogen with Oxygen to form water. This creates electric current that can be used to devices.
APPLIED TECHNOLOGY Our cell manufacturing process sandwiches our patent-pending metallic-ceramic water splitting compound between two electrodes. This three-layer cell is then heat compressed at over 750°C to form a 1.26V Quantum Cell.
PROTOTYPE BASIC TECHNICAL INFO • Each 3x3 cell generates • Cell voltage of 1.2v DC • Current batter has 3 layers equivalent to 3.6v DC • Voltage increased by increasing number of cells in layers • Amperage is increased by increasing surface area Presently the battery • Performance increased by has been charging a adding a thin layer graphene LED light for more than 3 months
MARKET POTENTIAL • Use case 1: charging system for mobile devices: creating powerbanks and charging systems for mobile devices. • Use case 2 Self charging mobile phone covers and docking stations : creating charge on the go solutions for mobile phone users • Use case 3: Water purification : Using UV light to provide underprivileged communities access to affordable potable water. • Use Case 4: IoT devices and smart units: self charging systems for different smart systems like power meters.
POWERBANKS The quantum cube can be designed as a powerbank useful for charging mobile devices like mobile phones especially when a user is on the go.
JUICE PACKS AND BATTERY CASES It is a smartphone case with a built-in battery and connector designed to stay on your phone all the time. It serves the same purpose as a powerbanks but provides a continuous charging system for smartphones by combining the charging system with the self-charging battery within a slim and durable smartphone cover.
WATER PURIFICATION The battery can be used to power an ultraviolet bulb for purifying water especially in rural and peri-urban areas in Africa. Ultraviolet water purification is the most effective method for disinfecting bacteria from the water.
SMALL DOMESTIC APPLIANCES • There are plenty of small devices within the home that require electricity. The quantum cubes can be used to power devices like smart meters to reduce consumption of power.
KEY MILESTONES • Working prototypes with significant market potential and interest • Market analysis and research into uses cases • Product lifecycles and product development strategy • Initial contribution and experience curve analysis of production and manufacturing requirements
