Netherlands-based, Solarix designs, develops, supplies & assembles solar panels for "energy-generating façades". The colored solar panels (designed to coordinate aesthetically with building materials such as concrete, wood & aluminum) are produced in Europe. “Solar panels make the biggest energy contribution to a house, but for high-rise buildings, the roof area is often too small to install enough (solar panels). Façade panels are the answer”. Solarix panels reduce CO2 emission by 25% & could even allow for energy-neutral buildings. Founded in 2016 by Marloes van Heteren (CEO) & artist Reinier Bosch, Solarix won the Solar Design Award at the Dutch Design Week that same year, by 2017 had a working demo with an inverter & 9...

Finland-based, Safegrid develops the “Intelligent Grid System” (IGS) solution, which helps utilities & grid operators locate, predict & prevent common grid fault-types – e.g. high & low impedance earth faults (EF), intermitted EF, short circuit faults, IO glitches, (re)connected load faults – through cloud-based monitoring & wireless sensors as follows:  “GridGuardian”: cloud-based monitoring system, which analyses all data from Grayfox & Grayhawk sensors (aka fault passage indicator devices - FPI) (see below). It can operated as a standalone system, with SCADA integration requires (of course, when necessary, deep integration into customers’ systems is available via flexible REST APIs) “Grayfox”: FPI sensor specifically for underground cable networks. With these, one can check & locate faults like e.g. corroded insulators...
