iQ Power Licensing AG 1500 0 Kommentare New Battery Technology is WINNER of the `Environmental Oscar´ - Seite 2

The innovation of iQ Power Licensing of electrolyte mixing in flooded car batteries is characterized by a double product life of starter batteries compared to conventional products and results in a much smaller CO2 footprint (www.iqpower.de/en/content/ecology).

"The new award will definitely give our technology momentum for strong product sales of our licensee partners as well as increased future license sales", stated Sullivan. The innovative technology is applied, among others, in MIXTECH car batteries of Discover Battery.

Advantages of the innovation for consumers and the environment
The innovation is based on non-moving (passive) plastic components in the battery, so called passive mixing elements. Coupled with the forces from the vehicle dynamics while driving, these components provide automatic and efficient 360-degree electrolyte circulation and full electrolyte mixing within in the battery. The advantages: No loss of capacity (Ah) of the battery due to harmful acid stratification as usual with ordinary car batteries and thus powerful and steady functioning of the electrochemistry in the battery by a homogeneous electrolyte. The benefits: minimal costs and maximum advantages for consumers and the environment such as double service life, high reliability and much less CO2 emissions as well as less lead in the total raw material cycle over time (www.iqpower.com/en/content/technology).

The GreenTec Awards are the most important environmental awards. The prestigious prize is given annually to outstanding innovations in the field of environmental protection and sustainability in over ten different categories.

Well-established media partners support the GreenTec Awards in providing a platform for green technologies and thus attract maximal public attention. The final award ceremony with a stunning gala will take place on 12 May 2017 in Berlin with some 600 guests from the worlds of business, politics, show biz and the press. This year´s partner country is Canada.

About the iQ Power Technology
Batteries with iQ Power technology are designed to generate better performance in Start-Stop applications and to meet the growing demands of electronic usage in vehicles today. It is the first significant innovation to the flooded starter battery in decades. Automatic mixing of electrolyte inside the battery by passive mixing elements ensures uniform acid density for higher sustained performance throughout the entire life of the battery, thus avoiding early loss of capacity (Ah) as usual with ordinary batteries. This prolongs plate life by eliminating acid stratification and thermal gradients, delivering greater material utilization for a lower cost per cycle over conventional batteries. The patented technology was awarded the coveted Automechanika innovation award 1st prize in 2010 and und became a first prize winner of the GreenTec Awards in 2017. - More under: www.iqpower.com/en
