Pooled Energy
Internet of Things for Swimming Pools
Pooled Energy brings Internet of Things to residential swimming pools via a service bundling household electricity, equipment upgrades, pool management, chemicals and equipment maintenance and multiple unique technologies.

We remotely monitor and manage water chemistry in real time and control all pool equipment to ensure water quality is better, healthier and always maintained, while substantially reducing energy and chemical consumption.

Swimming pools typically account for 30% of the electricity use in their associated homes and the 1.2 million pools in Australia are a huge consumer of electricity. As a licensed electricity retailer we will also use grouped swimming pools to provide Grid stabilisation services.

Relectrify
Revolutionising energy storage via reused batteries
Rechargeable batteries power laptops, electric cars, and a breadth of other portable items. However, after only a few years of use, they are discarded. This is insane, because most of these old batteries still have the majority of their life remaining. At the same time, the demand for batteries in many less critical applications like household solar storage has seen dramatic increases. Relectrify is commercialising technology that is able to turn these old batteries into highly capable and affordable energy storage. The effect is that we turn e-waste liability into a renewable energy storage asset.

Atomnaut
See every atom, design breakthrough materials
Human DNA sequencing originally cost $3 billion. Over $500 billion revenue has been generated. Does a similar financial incentive and solution exist for inorganic materials, like steel or silicon? Absolutely. Advanced materials is a $3.5 trillion market. The challenge is that a material’s ‘DNA’ is encoded by it’s individual atoms – 20x smaller than human DNA. Atomnaut has developed the first microscope to image a material’s DNA – 3D position & element identity of every atom. A 100x improvement. Atomnaut designs patentable materials and manufacturing processes. Licensing patents to customers increases performance of their products and reduces costs of R&D.
