Infrastructure pipes

All over the United States, and much of North America, there is a vast network consisting of thousands of miles of infrastructure pipes. Most of these networks traverse isolated and harsh environments. There are generated power stations located at regular intervals along the pipelines these are usually solar powered. However, these systems are vulnerable to unfavourable conditions, expensive to manufacture, transport, maintain and replace, and therefore frequently prove unreliable. Maintenance crews constantly travel thousands of miles simply to repair and/or replace these less robust systems. Crews travel in heavy 4 x 4 vehicles, which have low fuel economies and which contribute further to the carbon footprint. by providing a robust solution with the potential to generate more power than the current systems, the frequency of visits to remote locations by maintenance crews will decrease, with a subsequent reduction in the consumption of petrol and/or diesel.

Spinergy™ technologies work with any non reactive gas or liquid to provide power for telemetry enabling real-time data collection, leak detection and infrastructure security in much the same way as our Hydrospinergy™ technologies work with water.

Our technologies ensure low cost of:

• manufacture
• transportation
• ease of installation
• maintenance – which can be undertaken by semi-skilled workers

We are keen to hear from manufacturers who service the agriculture sector, or from American industry leaders who want to make a difference, and have a project plan for using any of the Spinergy™ technologies to generate power across their network, including in isolated pipeline sections.

What our technologies can do:

• 100mm – generates 180V AC and 30W; or 240V pure sine wave power, creating useable power
• 250mm – factor of 6
• 500mm – factor of further 4
• May be scaled further
• Gravity as a battery can be facilitated by Hydrospinergy™ technologies for use in rural areas, and in high rise apartments (refit or new constructions)
• Interface with other Renewable and Clean Energy Solutions to create nodal Off-the-Grid hubs

Further development with industry partners we can customise impeller design, units for large hydro, oil or gas infrastructure pipelines to generate up to possibleimage024.jpg 2.5MW.
