Introduction to Ohr Energy
Ohr Energy is a Glasgow-headquartered, globally focused company committed to solving two of the world’s most pressing challenges – plastic waste management and clean energy generation – at the intersection of the waste-to-energy industry.
Our company’s innovative and highly unique value proposition, business model, and revenue channels centre on the development and deployment of our Pyr-X™ unit’s innovative, containerised systems that convert plastic and other organic waste to clean syngas for electricity generation.
Get in TouchCompetitive advantages of Pyr-X™ technology
Ohr Energy’s products and services are based on our state-of-the-art technologies, which thermally decompose organic waste, including plastics, food waste, biomass, and other materials, into simpler compounds. The process occurs in the absence of oxygen, which prevents combustion and instead produces syngas, a clean fuel for electricity generation.
Mobility & Scalability
Ohr Energy Pyr-X™ units are designed with a compact, shipping container-sized footprint, providing unparalleled mobility and ease of deployment. This small, modular design allows units to be quickly transported and set up in diverse locations across the globe, including remote or underserved areas. Mobility not only reduces logistical barriers but also enables our company to respond swiftly to regional waste and energy demands, offering a flexible and scalable solution that can adapt to different market needs.
Simplicity & Efficiency in Conversion
The Pyr-X™ process is designed with operational simplicity in mind, converting organic waste into syngas without the need for complex cooling systems. Syngas generated is directly fed to the generators for immediate electricity production, minimising steps and equipment typically required in waste-to-energy conversion processes. A streamlined approach enhances operational efficiency, reduces maintenance, and lowers costs for clients, giving us a competitive edge in terms of ease of use and cost-effectiveness.
Versatility in Waste Processing
Another one of Ohr Energy’s key competitive advantages is the versatility of its Pyr-X™ technology, which can process a wide variety of organic waste with reasonable calorific value, including plastics, biomass, food waste, and paper. This flexibility makes the Pyr-X™ units valuable across multiple industries and sectors, from waste management companies to municipalities and industrial operations. By being able to handle diverse waste streams, Ohr Energy addresses many different market needs and positions itself as an essential and comprehensive solution for global waste management challenges.
Advanced Remote Monitoring and Control
The Pyr-X™ units are equipped with cutting-edge remote monitoring and control technology, accessible via desktop, laptop, or mobile devices via an integrated app. Our technology allows clients to monitor the operation, performance, and efficiency of the units in real-time, ensuring optimal functionality without a need for on-site supervision. Additionally, our company’s app offers control over the microgrid, providing transparency in power usage and customer billing, which enhances user experience and provides a uniquely seamless energy management solution. A remote capability increases convenience and operational oversight, further differentiating Ohr Energy from competitors.
Integrated Microgrid Management & Billing Solutions
Ohr Energy’s Pyr-X™ technology goes beyond waste-to-energy conversion by offering a fully integrated microgrid management system. Clients can monitor power, control energy distribution, and manage billing through the Pyr-X™ app, enabling comprehensive oversight of energy generation and consumption. This all-in-one solution simplifies energy management for clients by giving them all the tools they need.
The Problems Faced within the Industry
Ohr Energy's products and services are based on our state-of-the-art technologies, which thermally decompose organic waste, including plastics, food waste, biomass, and other materials, into simpler compounds. The process occurs in the absence of oxygen, which prevents combustion and instead produces syngas, a clean fuel for electricity generation.
Plastic Pollution:
The global plastic waste crisis is severely affecting ecosystems and human health, with plastic pollution contaminating water sources and food chains. Ohr Energy helps address this problem via our pioneering Pyr-X™ technology, which thermally decomposes plastic waste into clean syngas. This solution not only helps to reduce plastic pollution but also turns waste into a valuable energy resource – mitigating two substantial challenges simultaneously.
Energy Deficit:
Many regions, especially in West Africa and other developing regions, face a chronic energy shortage. Others, such as Ukraine, have established systems that are under attack or otherwise challenged to meet demand. Our Pyr-X™ units offer a dual solution by not only managing waste but also generating clean electricity. By converting waste materials into syngas for power generation, Ohr Energy contributes to closing the gap in underserved geographical regions.
Recycling Inefficiencies:
Current recycling systems are often overwhelmed, with significant volumes of plastic waste not being recycled effectively, instead ending up in landfills or the oceans. Pyr-X™ provides an innovative solution bypassing traditional recycling methods and converting plastic directly into energy, offering a sustainable alternative to reduce reliance on inadequate recycling systems and filling gaps in the world’s recycling infrastructure.
Health Hazards:
Plastic waste, especially microplastics, poses severe health risks, including endocrine disruption, cancer from exposure to toxic chemicals, and more. Our Pyr-X™ units help mitigate these risks by removing plastics from the environment and converting them into energy, reducing the exposure of humans and ecosystems to harmful plastic by-products.
