Nanotube Wires for Electrical Transmission

We hold the know-how and patents to manufacture electrical wires from carbon nanotubes. Nanotube wires outperform their metal equivalents as they are 83% lighter, conduct efficiently at temperatures up to 300 degrees, and carry 1000 times the current vs Copper. Metal wires, in comparison, become increasingly inefficient as their resistance increases when they heat up, and with global temperatures rising, large portions of the electrical grid are vulnerable.

If we continue to use metal wires as the primary material for grid-scale electrical transmission, then the world will have a severe energy crisis; we have already seen large-scale grid failures, such as in June 2023 in Mexico and Texas when temperatures rose, and demands on the grid from air conditioning increased, this caused high levels of energy loss through transmission, leading to deaths due to heat exertion without access to electricity.

We are actively seeking commercial partners to realise the application of our patented nanotube wire technology. If you would like to know more, then please get in touch hello@trimtabs.co.
