Offerings

We offer accelerated R&D strategy, data intelligence and utilization, and technology management solutions by employing proprietary assessment frameworks:
    • Technology development matrix (TDM)
    • Techno-economics analysis (TEA),
    • Value analysis models and technology road maps (TRM)
    • Deep analysis of your emerging technology: techno-economics and upscaling of energy materials to devices

Support proof of concept research, materials-to-component integration, device development, and demonstration

Sector-specific technology management tools, technology development matrix, and knowledge graphs

Evaluate potential of product commercialization, build and maintain a robust business ecosystem and cost-effective supply chain strategy

Understand circularity of renewable sources, perform full life-cycle cost, and calculate GHG assessment

Project portfolio

We are pioneer in developing methodologies and practical tools for Techno-economic Cost (TCM) models. TCM is a tool to assist decision-making in technology portfolio management and new product development. The model was customized for the use of various individual and consortium projects in EU, US, South Africa, and Canada.
