Exro Technologies Inc.

Exro has developed and patented a unique method of “self-optimizing” electric motors and generators to reduce losses in high variability applications. Our first commercial application is wind power, where we are collaborating with numerous turbine makers to convert their existing geared turbines to direct-drive using our Variable Input Electrical Generator (VIEG).

The benefit is an immediate increase in the turbine’s annual output along with a significant reduction in downtime and annual maintenance. In addition to wind power, our technology platform has a compelling value proposition for run of river and marine power, as well as electric vehicles, industrial motors, portable power and other inherently variable applications where reducing losses equates to a material economic benefit.

Applications

Exro’s technology platform can be reconfigured as a motor (Variable Input Electrical Motor, or VIEM) in addition to being a variable generator (VIEG). Our controller technology is ideal for operating electric vehicles which need to shift really quickly on the fly. Currently, many EV’s are limited by their inability to shift quickly in a range of rpms, leaving their motors to only be efficient in a very narrow band. The VIEM’s unique geometry, on the other hand, allows for more efficient capture and conversion of electrical energy into torque in a wide range of rpms. Exro envisions applications including golf carts and scooters.
