WattAnyWhere’s entry into the Shell GameChanger Accelerator with a focus on clean energy innovation at Shell Station Aire de Val Neuvy symbolizes a notable step forward in advancing off-grid clean energy solutions.
The collaborative journey of the startup and the Shell Station Aire de Val Neuvy progresses from the Proof of Value to a live Proof of Concept demonstration. This move showcases the practical application of WattAnyWhere’s off-grid power generators, highlighting their efficacy in real-world scenarios and solidifying the technology’s viability and scalability.
Grounded in cutting-edge technology that leverages the renewable ethanol supply chain, WattAnyWhere’s innovation presents a seamless and efficient alternative to traditional grid solutions. This unique approach not only meets rising energy demands but also significantly contributes to reducing CO2 emissions. With a strong focus on environmental sustainability, WattAnyWhere’s technology stands out due to its low footprint, off-grid operation, and low operational expenses (OPEX), drawing significant attention, particularly within the retail industry.
WattAnyWhere’s power generators offer a reliable solution to the challenges faced by e-mobility and the wider retail sector in sourcing renewable and high-power electricity – for applications that require hundreds of kW every day, such as fast charging for electric vehicles, refrigeration, heating, cooling systems, and general power usage – eliminating grid connection costs and addressing cut-off and peak charges. This innovative approach not only reduces kWh costs but also plays a crucial role in CO2 emission avoidance and sequestration.
WattAnyWhere’s transportable gensets offer a revolutionary solution, bringing renewable energy to a site within days instead of years.
The impact of WattAnyWhere’s genset solutions on CO2 emissions in Europe is substantial, indicating a significant reduction compared to traditional grid usage by 2030.
Alexandre Laybros, Co-CEO & CMO at WattAnyWhere highlights, “Our commitment goes beyond innovation towards reshaping the energy sector while reducing carbon footprints, driving the future of sustainable energy with the backing of the Shell Game Changer Accelerator.”
The cleantech provided by WattAnyWhere not only delivers environmental benefits but also positions itself for government incentives while producing pure water as a sustainable byproduct, reinforcing its commitment to sustainability.
