EnerKíte has reached an important milestone: the first system has been sold! This means that the proof of market has been achieved. This EK100 system will supply the precision manufacturer Seipp & Kehl in Gemünden, Hesse, with electricity and can also be used as a demo system for other potential customers. The sales pipeline is fully loaded: We are working on nine further pilot projects in Germany, Europe and around the world. The EK100 system will supply the precision manufacturer Seipp & Kehl in Gemünden, Hesse. The purchase agreement with Managing Partner Marc Schneider has now been signed and the order has been backed by a down payment. Seipp & Kehl can draw on 69 years of expertise. As a system partner, the company specialises in turning, milling, grinding and machining complex components, as well as complete production including the assembly of entire modules. As soon as the system has been delivered and is up and running, it can also be used as a showcase for other customers.
In addition to Seipp & Kehl, e.disnatur and Elli (Volkswagen Group Charging GmbH), there are now seven other pilot projects in the pipeline. These are not only in Germany (7 projects), but also in other European (2 projects) and non-European countries (1 project). Of particular strategic importance, the projects cover not only different geographical markets, but also different industries and market segments. The pilot projects involve SMEs as well as large corporations, cities and municipalities, and come from the energy and tourism sectors. So our innovative solution is finding favour in many places, also in terms of its intended use. These include self-sufficiency, e-mobility, mini-grids (connected to the grid), utility-scale and stand-alone grids.
