Technology transfer
Atena has developed solutions for sustainable, accessible, smart, and interconnected mobility. Atena’s technologies can ensure the widespread adoption and use of electric vehicles, without requiring government planning interventions, thus overcoming barriers related to infrastructure costs and timelines. Cartridges recharching/refueling can be accomplished by using automatic dispenser or by door to door service.
ATENA is currently carrying out the technology transfer of power units for different applications.
HYBYKE | HYSCOOTER | HYBIGA | MICROBIAL FUEL CELL | HYQUBO | YARD TRUCK | HYAPE
HyBike
HyBike uses innovative power units to ensure pedal-assist electric bicycles can achieve ranges of over 100 km, thanks to an advanced energy system based on hydrogen fuel cells. Such high performance is unattainable with traditional batteries.
HyScooter
HyScooter uses a hybrid propulsion system with fuel cells to extend range and prolong battery life. The hybrid power supply reduces overall weight by about 10 kg and triples the distance that can be covered on a single charge. It can travel at approximately 45 km/h for over 120 km under normal usage conditions: flat terrain, cruising speed, and a driver weight of 70 kg.
HyBiga
HyBiga uses the same power unit to provide an industrial vehicle for cart handling and goods transport with a range exceeding two work shifts. It can be used in airports, stations, ports, greenhouses, farms, tourist resorts, agricultural businesses, and amusement parks.
Microbial Fuel Cell
MFCs (Microbial Fuel Cells) are innovative biotechnologies that use bacteria found in organic waste to produce electrical energy.
The disposal of organic waste takes place through an anaerobic digestion process that both nourishes the bacteria and generates electricity by directly converting chemical energy into electrical energy.
HyQubo
Atena begins its journey in the automotive sector:
Adler Group, in collaboration with researchers from the University of Parthenope and Atena’s technical team, has integrated Atena’s power units into a traditional vehicle, creating an innovative system for environmentally sustainable surface mobility, which can be optimized for intermodal transport while fully respecting the environment and natural resources.
The QUBO project represents a convergence and sharing of resources, know-how, and technological expertise, capable of driving research and innovation.
Yard Truck
Atena is part of the European consortium working to validate hydrogen technologies for port machinery, aiming to develop zero-emission solutions for port logistics.
Atena will develop a terminal tractor for ro-ro operations, powered by hydrogen fuel cells. Thanks to the H2PORTS project, the Port of Valencia will become the first in Europe to incorporate hydrogen energy to reduce the environmental impact of its operations.
HyApe
Together with Adler and UniParthenope, Atena has developed power units for the traditional “Ape” commercial vehicle.
