Lightricity Limited

The massive growth of the Internet of Things (IoT) and the unsustainable maintenance and environmental cost of tens-of-millions of battery changes per day is driving developments of indoor photovoltaic (IPV) technologies. These can harvest energy from indoor artificial light sources to power IoT and wearable devices avoiding the need for battery changes. ...

Lightricity has developed and commercialised world leading efficiency photovoltaic (PV) technology which is up to 6x better at harvesting energy than commercially available silicon-based PV. This renewable energy source can enable the IoT to overcome the barriers of battery-related waste and maintenance costs thus enabling it to be more scalable and susta...

It is well recognised that indoor air quality (IAQ) is an issue given the range of air pollutants present and the amount of time people spend indoors. Key air pollutants include CO2, VOCs, fine particulates, mould spores, CO and NO2 all with impacts on human health. Indoor air quality IAQ is influenced by weather, outdoor air quality, the season, the occu...

Lightricity has developed prototype light-powered, BLE-based, beacons that can replace battery-powered beacons for navigation in digital wayfinding solutions. These solutions typically pair beacon devices located throughout buildings with a smart phone and mapping app to enable the user to navigate indoors around large buildings e.g. hospitals, museums, a...

Powering the various elements of IoT networks is a major constraint on the scale, installation and maintenance cost and sustainability, as IoT devices are typically either battery or mains-powered. Lightricity already addresses these limitations for the end-nodes (e.g. sensors/tracker tags), using its world-leading efficiency indoor photovoltaic technolog...

Lightricity is an environmental impact focused company, aiming to eliminate the need for battery proliferation in many applications of IoT which threaten to add billions to trillions of batteries to environmental waste and huge cost and carbon footprint of battery-change activity. These scalability challenges are reducing the potential benefits of IoT. We...

Lightricity has developed world leading efficiency indoor photovoltaic (PV) technology capable of powering a multitude of small wireless devices e.g. for wearables and the Internet of Things (IoT) thus avoiding the sustainability and maintenance costs of battery power. The company currently sells its PV component technology to IoT device developers and al...

Lightricity aims to develop a light-powered wayfinding beacon product that makes inclusion of visually and mobility impaired people in indoor navigation systems both practically possible and economically viable. We will apply our patented, highly efficient, indoor PV (photovoltaic) technology and novel power management architectures to highly miniaturised...

The company currently sells its unique indoor PV component technology to IoT device developers and also offers PV- powered IoT devices to systems integrators a...

Lightricity will deliver a prototype, smart card compatible, photovoltaic (PV) power module with use-case functionality demonstrated within a smart card demonstrator including the array of industry-accepted security elements to be powered. This will utilise our patented and uniquely efficient PV technology and patented power management architectures. It w...

Methane is a significant contributor to global warming so reducing methane emissions, particularly from oil and gas operations, is among the most cost-effective, impactful actions governments can take to achieve climate goals. Preventing methane leakage impacts economic productivity and worker safety too. Large-site leak detection requires reliable cost-e...
