Turntide
The Company
TurnTide is developing the world's most reliable,
efficient, and intelligent motor system that has
the potential to reduce electricity consumption
and carbon emissions by more than 25%.
The Mission
To lower global energy consumption by
creating motors that optimize the efficient
transfer of electricity.
The Product
Unlike a standard induction motor, TurnTide's
switched reluctance motor has no rotor bars
and therefore, no torque-producing current flow
in the rotor. Instead, driven by its advanced
software, the system converts electrical energy
into mechanical energy. This yields a product
50% more efficient than high-efficiency
fixed speed motors.
I Dig It - Here's Why...
Over 47% of the world's energy is consumed by analog motors, and more than half of that is wasted by inefficient systems. By maximizing the output of motors, TurnTide reduces the necessary energy expenditure to run our world. Switched reluctance motors are not only more sustainable than their conventional alternatives, they are also less expensive to own and operate.
How It Works
New Solutions
Potential Markets
Switched reluctance motors are simple in design but require a complex operating system. With modern computing power, TurnTide is making this previously exclusive technology accessible to individual consumers.
TurnTide is targeting heavy consumers of energy like HVAC and agriculture as its initial market. As production continues to scale, the motors might be seen in appliances, electric vehicles, and even aerospace technology.
Carbon Impact
Intelligent Technology
Replacing all of the world's motors with TurnTide technology would be the carbon equivalent of creating seven new Amazon rainforests.
TurnTide's advanced operating system allows users unparalleled control over their motors. It is the only motor that reports what it is actually doing under the hood and is even able to connect to the Internet of Things.
