dpSun Sustainable Electrification is a research and development focused company established in 2014 and with 3 main areas of activities:

RURAL ELECTRIFICATION

In remote areas like Sub-Saharian Africa and Indo-Pacific

BIPV

New constructing materials using solar PV energy

eMOBILITY

IC2Ev, converting combustion engine vehicles to electric

Know more

Our goal is to develop and implement off-grid solar power solutions for sparsely populated areas. These solutions will include a variety of renewable energy technologies and business models in order to address a diverse market of customers circumstances and preferences.

Buildings can be 100% sustainable and we design, develop new tailor made solutions.

eMobility is the future. IC2EV Repowering MotorHome to electric, is a project to electrify an existing fossil fuel operated Motorhome into an electric vehicle.

Rural Electrification

SolaNetwork

SolaNetwork builds on progenitor work of SolaFin2Go to curate an integrated set of affordable solar energy access solutions for socioeconomically diverse sub-Saharan African rural communities. The project is developing and trialing a network of stand-alone devices and a unified monitoring and control system to provide real-time business intelligence and customer interfaces for the DESCO.

The project aims to fill a significant market gap between inadequate small solar-home-system and costly centralised mini-grids which are uneconomic in sparsely populated areas.

SolaFin2Go

The SolaFin2Go project addressed the challenge of providing standalone solar systems to make available cost effective and affordable access to electricity and thermal hot water for off-grid households in sub-Saharan Africa. The objective was to test the feasibility of ‘entry level’ technological solutions combining novel PV and solar thermal technologies financed through improved business PAYG models (enabled by the innovative FinTech platform through Mobile, Cloud and Blockchain technologies) that fit with household/community circumstances to provide basic electrification and hot water.

e-Mobility

IC2EV

IC2EV was born in 2019 with a dream: to be able to convert combustion vehicles into electric ones. In that year, we converted our first vehicle, a Mini R50 from 2002. We were awarded the national mobility prize in Spain.

One of the 5 projects selected for MSIP Innovation Challenge 2 funding.
