Greeny Energy
A modular battery storage system
The construction sector is undergoing a major sustainability transition. Diesel-powered machines and generators cause high emissions, noise pollution, and inefficient energy use. As more equipment on construction sites becomes electric, the need for reliable, flexible, and clean on-site energy solutions continues to grow.
For Greeny Energy, I worked on the development of a modular energy storage system that gives used batteries from cars and other applications a second life. By reusing these batteries, early waste streams are prevented and existing raw materials are utilized as efficiently as possible.
This architecture formed the foundation for the subsequent design and engineering phase, working towards a robust manufacturable system with a visual language that fits the rugged, demanding environment of the construction site.
My role covered the entire design and engineering trajectory. The process started with translating requirements from legislation, safety, and user needs into clear functional and technical specifications. Based on this foundation I defined the product architecture with a modular setup as its core. The system consists of flexible building blocks in which individual battery modules can easily be replaced when they reach the end of their lifespan.
