Large Scale IoT for B2B is only viable when batteryless 🪫❌ At Wireless IoT tomorrow on 23 October, Dracula Technologies will take the stage to demonstrate why large-scale IoT deployments in B2B environments cannot do without batteries. In today’s IoT landscape, technologies like LoRaWAN, Zigbee, LTE, and BLE still rely on batteries. But for enterprises with thousands of sensors across multiple sites, replacing batteries is impractical and unsustainable. This is where batteryless solutions become essential for long-term success. Roelof Koopmans, our VP of Business Development, will present how Dracula Technologies leverages energy harvesting to create autonomous sensors powered by low-light energy, utilising organic materials printed on flexible substrates—offering endless possibilities for innovation while drastically reducing your solution's costs. 📅 Date and Time: October 23rd, 15:00 – 15:30 CEST 🎤 Speaker: Roelof Koopmans Don’t miss this opportunity to hear firsthand how we’re revolutionising IoT at scale with batteryless technology.

Dracula Technologies, partner of the European project EFFECTOR: a bright initiative to develop organic photovoltaics 💡 We are proud to participate in the Efficient Organic Photovoltaic Sensors (#EFFECTOR) project, a European initiative aimed at providing innovative and environmentally friendly solutions for electronics. Roger Hiorns and Didier Begue, researchers at the Institute of Analytical Sciences and Physico-Chemistry for Environment and Materials (Pau), have obtained a three-million-euro grant for this ambitious project. At Dracula Technologies, we bring our expertise to this project by providing flexible, lightweight, and cost-effective organic photovoltaic modules, thanks to simple inkjet printing processes. Our modules can be applied in sensors of any shape, making the technology suitable for many innovative uses in, among others, the Smart Building, Smart Home and Asset Tracking sectors. The EFFECTOR project is a fantastic opportunity to keep advancing and pushing the boundaries of our knowledge, in order to develop ever more efficient solutions. This partnership is an essential step for us toward integrating organic photovoltaics into new applications, contributing to a more sustainable future. Learn more: https://lnkd.in/dM8unpRD

Reducing IoT TCO with Battery-Free Energy Harvesting Solutions At last week’s The Things Conference organised by The Things Industries, Roelof Koopmans delivered an insightful keynote on how energy harvesting solutions are transforming IoT deployments by significantly reducing Total Cost of Ownership (TCO). He explained that one of the biggest hurdles for scaling IoT networks has been battery management—the cost of replacements, maintenance, and the environmental impact of disposable batteries. Did you know that 50% of batteries end up as waste? This is clearly unsustainable and can seriously hinder the process continuity businesses need. So, how can we reduce the TCO of our IoT solutions? Roelof shared some eye-opening numbers: 🔋 Batteries and replacements account for 30% of IoT TCO! By switching to organic photovoltaic (OPV) energy harvesting, companies can reduce their TCO by 30%, while ensuring continuous data streams and compliance with evolving EU regulations (which are pushing for battery-free sensors). For example, one enterprise with 50,000 #lorawan sensors deployed across 50 offices is now facing a massive wave of battery replacements just 4 years into their rollout. Imagine the cost of replacing each of those batteries—not to mention the downtime... Dracula Technologies' OPV solutions eliminate this pain point entirely. Whether it's in smart buildings or asset tracking, the benefits are clear: no more batteries, no more disruptions, and significant cost savings. Are you ready to reduce your TCO and go battery-free?

Ambient light is omnipresent. Soft and even, It allows us to see a space as a whole. All it takes is a lit lamp. Ambient light is everywhere and always available. It creates a soothing atmosphere that influences our mood and influences the way we feel inside of a space. But, its potential goes far beyond that. Ambient light has the ability to power the electronics that are around us. At Dracula Technologies, we like to make good use of all of ambient light's capabilities. Through LAYER®, ambient light is converted into energy, offering a sustainable energy solution for low-power sensors in smart buildings, smart homes and asset tracking solutions. Beyond Batteries, Beyond Imagination.
