Swiss Blue Energy AG

The technology startup for development and commercialization of the Thermo-Magnetic Motor (TMM).

The Swiss Blue Energy AG is headquartered in Bad Zurzach, Switzerland and was founded in December 2012. The company focusses on developing, planning, manufacturing as well as the operation of sustainable zero-emission electricity power plants. The primary mechanical drive of the electricity production is powered by low-temperature waste heat between 20°C to 80°C. The first product of the technology startup is the Thermo-Magnetic Motor (TMM).

In order to further develop the technology, Swiss Blue Energy is well connected with national and international industrial partners and research institutes. We are a Swiss company and we confess to Switzerland as our business location.

For investors, the company offers the unique possibility to participate in the establishment of an unprecedented key technology in the area of renewable energy technologies.

Vision

Supplementing traditional renewable energies by converting low temperature energy into electricity

Swiss Blue Energy wants to leave a lasting footprint for a better future energy balance through developing its thermo-magnetic technologies. The TMM of Swiss Blue Energy will complement existing renewable energies by steadily converting low temperature energy/waste heat into uninterrupted baseload electricity. The generated electricity can be used to stabilise electricity grids. Especially in developing countries and remote regions, the economic development is supported through our low-cost high-efficiency technologies. In developed countries, our TMM will help to control the electricity grid balance by using waste heat energy and turn it into electricity.

By implementing the Magnetic Cooling Machine (MCM), an economic and environmental friendly cooling machine will be available for dramatically reducing energy consumption of cooling applications.

By 2021, it is our aim to be the world leading company in the field of thermo-magnetic and magnetocaloric applications for electricity production and energy efficient cooling, with the vision to leave a positive energetic footprint on our world.
