Let's Say: It Starts With A Cup Of Coffee
Let's Say: It Starts With A Cup Of Coffee
Our Solution
Coffee waste isn't a burden: it's a resource waiting to be unlocked. We've proven it works. Now we're scaling it.
Yesterday's waste is tomorrow's battery. And we're the ones making it happen.
So please, keep drinking coffee. We need you.
And if you're a matcha person... well, we will be working on that too!
-
We decouple anode production from volatile mining markets by utilizing abundant, cost-free coffee waste.
-
Lab-validated specific capacity of 365 mAh/g that matches or exceeds market-leading synthetic graphite.
-
Slashing the carbon footprint of anode materials by 60% through a fully circular, fossil-free process.
-
Strengthening EU energy independence with a localized, scalable raw material source that never runs out.
By subjecting coffee waste to a heat treatment called “pyrolysis” in an inert atmosphere, we convert biomass “waste” into battery-grade hard carbon with the perfect properties for energy storage.
One Input. Four Value Streams.
One Input. Four Value Streams.
Our technology is designed for absolute efficiency.
Every gram of feedstock is valorized: the carbon becomes battery anodes, the gas powers our plant, and the oil serves industry.
We don't just minimize waste; we eliminate it.
-
High-purity hard carbon (365 mAh/g) that replaces fossil-based graphite. A drop-in solution for lithium-ion batteries with a negative carbon footprint.
-
A hydrogen-rich gas mixture recycled directly to power our reactors. It makes our production energy-autonomous and independent of the grid."
-
A versatile organic liquid captured during pyrolysis. It serves as a sustainable feedstock for green chemicals, bio-binders, or renewable fuels
-
By locking carbon into batteries instead of landfills, we generate high-quality Carbon Removal Credits—monetizing our positive climate impact.
Prototype
This is more than just black powder:
It’s the future of energy storage. Our prototype is a high-purity hard carbon derived entirely from coffee waste. Lab-validated to deliver industry standard specific capacity, it proves that we can match the performance of market-leading synthetic graphite without the environmental cost.
It’s real, it’s tested, and it works.

“As a scientist, I see value where others see waste. The energy transition has a dirty secret: the graphite crisis. We are rewriting this story by turning a daily burden into a high-performance material, powering the future with a truly circular solution.”
