BATx is the first Latin American startup to reuse Li-ion batteries recovered from everyday uses (such as electric devices and EVs) and re-purpose them for small and medium-scale energy storage and backup. BATx provides reliable Energy-as-a-Service (EaaS) solutions entirely based on a circular production chain. Once the batteries have been discarded by their original users, they perform health diagnostics on each of the cells that compose the battery and reassemble them according to our client’s energy needs. The entire service is monitored through IoT, ensuring maximum efficiency. They are committed to providing new approaches to the lack of affordable and sustainable energy storage solutions available on the market and the over-exploitation of Lithium and amounting waste produced by single destination batteries. They aim to become key players in improving renewable energies by providing storage and distribution systems for peak productions that are much needed to increase the large-scale use of renewables over fossil fuels.

Kubik turns hard-to-recycle plastic waste into low-carbon, low-cost building materials.

Sylvarum intercepts electrostimulation tech with AI to control the metabolism of plants in order to improve crop yields.

ADAPTA develops climate risk management products for financial intermediaries. Its 1st MVP, the ADAPTA Climate Score (CS), was developed and tested over 24 months as proof of concept. The product has been rolled out in Kenya, and is planed to roll it out in East Africa, the US, and Mexico in 2024. CS leverages biodiversity, climate, soil, and water data. The CS is analogous to a credit score using past data to forecast future risk. It was developed in discussions with six banks and is being tested by three banks before going commercial in early 2024. ADAPTA is beginning to develop a new product, “the digital portfolio system,” which will provide lenders and borrowers with satellite imaging, weather, and NDVI data.

Pirl is building next-generation electric vehicle (EV) charging stations to accelerate the transition to electrified transport. While the adoption of EVs is rapidly increasing, the charging infrastructure needed for mass adoption has lagged.

We’re at a critical time where over 90% of the infrastructure required for the adoption of EVs is yet to be built. Transportation accounts for 29% of greenhouse emissions, and because EVs generate only half the emissions of internal combustion engines, they are critical for the attainment of climate goals.

Pirl is building charging stations that charge rapidly and come with a delightful user experience. Their stations are designed to be long-lasting, and yet retain a low maintenance profile to reduce e-waste. Their mission is to transform charging stations into engines of economic growth to accelerate their deployment.

Coral Vita helps to restore our world’s dying reefs by growing corals on land and transplanting them into dying/endangered reef ecosystems. Coral reef ecosystems support 500M people and generate $30B annually, but 75% are projected to die by 2050. Coral Vita’s innovative farming system can grow coral at up to 50x natural rates while enhancing the corals’ resiliency to climate change.
