A clean-tech renewable energy reactor platform that harnesses genetically engineered bacteria and harvests the DC electricity, hydrogen gas, and water from their metabolism of organics commonly found in farm waste, plant pulps, river water, and sewage. We have working prototypes and are pilot ready!

The company intends to (1) sell the reactor platform, (2) sell the consumables, and (3) sell the accessories for the reactor. Then, the company intends to (4) monetize globally the carbon and renewable energy credits. They also intend to (5) sell certification to third parties for reactor installation, service, and maintenance.

Pilus Cell

Website	PilusEnergy.com
Stage	In Development
Launch Date	January 1, 2009

Pilus Cell Licenses a hybrid biofuel/ultracapacitor energy platform based upon proprietary bacteria that create electricity, hydrogen gas, and water from the metabolism of sewage, plant pulp, etc. They then wholesale the bacteria/nutrient powder to licensees.

Addressable battery market is $63B. The fuel cell will be scaled to 1) recharging consumer electronics, 2) providing electricity to residential and commercial facilities, and 3) for large utilities to provide electricity to the grid.

Pilus Cell captures the output from the collective bacterial metabolism in a scalable ultracapacitor/biofuel cell.
