New Contract from an Ambitious R&D Program Funded by Spain’s
Administration to Address Local and International Energy Solutions
Marking a major milestone with the first commercial use of its
breakthrough ultracapacitor nanotechnology, Enable
IPC Corp. (OTCBB:EIPC), a leading company for turning technologies
into products and successfully bringing them to market, today announced
that it has partnered with the Madrid, Spain-based IMDEA
Energy Institute to jointly develop ultracapacitors based on Enable
IPC’s patent-pending energy technology. The
initial project for this venture will be to incorporate Enable IPC’s
ultracapacitor into the SA2VE
clean energy innovation program.
Enable IPC’s ultracapacitor
technology combines nanoparticles with common carbon sheets for a low
cost, easy-to-implement technology that improves the performance of
ultracapacitors so they can function as clean energy storage devices.
The enhanced ultracapacitors are simpler, cheaper and longer lasting
than some conventional batteries, but perform just as well in many
applications.
“Our partnership with IMDEA Energy marks a
major validation of Enable IPC’s
ultracapacitor technology by a renowned international organization,”
said David Walker, CEO, Enable IPC. “Partnering
with IMDEA Energy solidifies our standing as a leading company with
cutting-edge energy technologies. We are excited by this unique
opportunity to help develop clean energy devices that could be a part of
the solution to the world’s energy problems,
and hope it marks the first of many collaborations with IMDEA Energy.”
The IMDEA Energy Institute develops energy-related Research and
Development (R&D) with an emphasis on renewable energy and clean energy
technologies to achieve outstanding scientific and technological
contributions that create a sustainable energy system. Together with the
SA2VE, a strategic national research and development program in Spain
focusing on electricity storage for applications in renewable energy
integration, transport sectors and households, the organizations seek
innovative, state-of-the-art technologies to address energy issues
locally in Spain, as well as worldwide.
