About the company
Sweetch Energy is a Europe based company aiming to introduce a new renewable and non-intermittent energy in the electricity mix: osmotic power. This energy, stemming from the encounter between fresh and salt water, could ultimately cover up to 15% of global electricity needs by 2050.
Sweetch Energy is a Europe-based company looking to expand in the US market after having closed its $27M series-A in December 2023.
About the solution
To harness this new energy, Sweetch Energy has drawn on the discovery of a new nano-physical phenomenon, in 2011, to develop its own membrane-based technology (INOD®). The INOD® generators can be installed on the shore of deltas and estuaries (to harness the salt gradient between river and sea water), or on industrial sites near available water streams, to create green electricity on a 24/7 basis.
