Spearheading energy innovation: a commitment to sustainability
In line with its global drive for sustainability, SEGULA Technologies is also contributing to energy innovation. Notably, it is involved in the development of REMORA Stack, a unique Compressed Air Energy Storage (CAES) solution designed for industrial and commercial applications—an initiative that aligns with South Africa’s growing demand for cleaner, more resilient energy systems.
This next-generation CAES system offers an alternative to traditional battery storage, using surplus renewable energy to compress air for later use—reducing both costs and carbon emissions. This project highlights SEGULA’s capacity to deliver cutting-edge solutions that not only meet today’s energy challenges but also help future-proof South Africa’s industrial sector.
