Epishine, a Swedish pioneer in indoor solar power, and Nichicon, a leading Japanese capacitor manufacturer, have joined forces to introduce a groundbreaking self-charging battery concept. This innovative idea combines Epishine’s highly efficient solar cells with Nichicon’s LTO (lithium titanate) batteries, creating an integrated, solderless, autonomous power product. This offering provides an attractive alternative to both disposable and rechargeable batteries, ultimately reducing time-to-market and cutting down on product development costs.
By leveraging Epishine's solar technology and Nichicon's advanced LTO-batteries, this partnership aims to revolutionize the way electronic devices are powered. The resulting self-charging battery encompasses sustainability, longevity, and seamless integration, making it an exciting advancement in the field of energy storage.
"We’ve created a self-charging battery powered by light – a sustainable advancement not only in its technology but also in its potential applications," shares Jonas Palmer, a representative from Epishine. This development represents a significant step forward in demonstrating how electronics can be powered with extended longevity, reduced environmental impact, and ease of integration, all while harnessing the power of ambient light.
This collaborative effort between Epishine and Nichicon exemplifies the potential for sustainable innovation in the electronics industry, offering a promising glimpse into the future of environmentally conscious power solutions.
