Innovative engineering + environmental values = powerful business opportunities

Pure common sense dictates that we become thriftier with the amount of energy that’s used and the harmful greenhouse gases that are emitted in the course of providing goods or services. That simple perspective opens a vast opportunity to reinvent, improve and refine all the infrastructure of civilization: from silicon mining to solar-powered mobile devices, higher-output energy plants to smarter home appliances, and everything around and between.

But we know that in the real-world marketplace today environmental virtue alone just doesn't make the sale. A compelling product must reduce costs and increase energy efficiency with zero increase in risk. Your prospective customers may be hard-working homeowners or hard-hatted industrial pros. Regardless, they are justifiably hard-headed about their best interests. They’ll need to be confident that your company is, or is fast becoming, a trustworthy world-class partner. We can help you reach out to them and credibly demonstrate that your innovation is faster, more easily stored or transported, re-usable, longer lasting, or more directly effective and simply serves them better.

Antenna has years of experience working with companies making technologies and products for more efficient lighting, improved industrial processes like coatings and water re-use, power electronics, vehicle drive trains, manufacturing and sensors for real-time process monitoring and more. Our entire client list is engaged in the energy-efficiency conversation.

A recent study by McKinsey & Company found that increased efficiency in buildings, industry, transportation, and energy production could meet almost all increased demand for energy services in the United States while preventing more than 1.5 billion tons of carbon dioxide emissions each year by 2030—with an annual net savings of over $50 billion. A large percentage of energy is wasted through inefficient transmission and crude conversion to work. For example, only 10% of the energy from the fuel burned in a vehicle is actually used to propel it: the majority is lost as waste heat. We are passionate about helping to make that prediction become reality.
