AUGEAN RNG Revolutionizes Motor Control with New Power Module

San Francisco, CA – October 26, 2023 – AUGEAN RNG LLC, a forward-thinking energy technology company based in San Francisco, today announced the release of its groundbreaking Motor Power Module (MPM). This isn’t just another component; it's a total rethink of how motors get their juice, promising big improvements in efficiency, reliability, and control for a huge range of applications. AUGEAN RNG, located at 1725 Montgomery St, 3rd Floor, San Francisco, CA, 94111-1030, has been quietly building a reputation as an innovator in renewable natural gas (RNG) and advanced power solutions. Founded on the principle of maximizing energy efficiency and minimizing environmental impact, the company initially focused on capturing and refining biogas into high-quality RNG. However, the team quickly realized that efficient use of energy was just as important as efficient production. This led to the development of the MPM.

Think of it as the brain and the brawn that feeds your motor, but way more efficient. Most motors today rely on fairly old-fashioned power control methods. They often waste energy through heat and inefficient delivery. AUGEAN RNG's MPM is different. It uses advanced silicon carbide (SiC) technology and a clever software algorithm to dramatically improve performance. “We saw a gap in the market,” explains Sarah Chen, AUGEAN RNG’s Chief Technology Officer. “Everyone’s focused on bigger motors, more horsepower. We asked, ‘What if we could get the most out of the motors we already have?’ The MPM is the answer. It's not about replacing existing motors; it’s about making them way smarter and more efficient.” Here's how it works, in plain English: Traditional motor power systems use a lot of “raw” power, meaning they send more energy than the motor actually needs. This extra energy gets lost as heat, wasting money and reducing the motor’s lifespan. The MPM, however, actively monitors the motor’s demands in real-time. It's like having a personal trainer for your motor. The MPM knows exactly how much power the motor needs at any given moment, and delivers only that amount. This is achieved through a combination of: SiC Technology: Silicon carbide is a semiconductor material that's way better at handling heat and switching speeds than traditional silicon. This means less energy is lost in the process. Think of it as a super-efficient highway for electricity. Advanced Control Algorithm: AUGEAN RNG’s proprietary software analyzes the motor’s load, speed, and other parameters. It then adjusts the power delivery to match the motor’s exact needs, constantly optimizing performance. It's like having a computer constantly tweaking the settings to get the best results. Compact Design: Despite its advanced capabilities, the MPM is surprisingly small and lightweight. This makes it easy to integrate into a wide range of applications. What can the MPM be used for? Honestly, pretty much anything with an electric motor. AUGEAN RNG is initially targeting several key markets: Electric Vehicles (EVs): The MPM can significantly extend the range of EVs by reducing energy consumption. Even a small improvement in efficiency can make a big difference. The company estimates a potential 5-10% range increase depending on driving conditions. Industrial Automation: Motors are the workhorses of industrial automation. The MPM can reduce energy costs, improve reliability, and enhance the performance of robots, conveyor systems, and other equipment. HVAC Systems: Heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems consume a huge amount of energy. The MPM can help to reduce energy bills and lower carbon emissions. Renewable Energy Systems: Motors play a critical role in many renewable energy systems, such as wind turbines and solar trackers. The MPM can improve the efficiency and reliability of these systems. Drones: Drones need every bit of power they can get. The MPM offers a lighter, more efficient solution, extending flight times. Beyond Efficiency: Reliability and Cost Savings It's not just about saving energy. The MPM also offers several other benefits: Increased Reliability: By reducing heat and stress on the motor, the MPM can significantly extend its lifespan. Reduced Maintenance: A more reliable motor means less downtime and lower maintenance costs. Lower Total Cost of Ownership: The initial cost of the MPM is quickly offset by energy savings, reduced maintenance, and extended motor life. What's next for AUGEAN RNG? The company is already working on the next generation of the MPM, with plans to incorporate even more advanced features, such as predictive maintenance and remote monitoring. They are also exploring new applications for the technology, including marine propulsion and aerospace. “We're excited about the potential of the MPM to transform the way we use energy,” says David Lee, CEO of AUGEAN RNG. “We believe this technology can play a significant role in building a more sustainable future.” Availability The AUGEAN RNG Motor Power Module is available for pre-order now.
