What if it were actually possible to power your EV from the sun collected on it’s surface?  Or what if you were not constrained by only one battery chemistry type but could mix chemistries?   Want to charge 400 volts with a 3V unit?  For 150 years, electrical engineers have relied on magnetic induction for power conversion, using coils and magnetic structures to transfer energy.  These constraints result in energy waste, size restrictions, and chemistry challenges, preventing seamless transfer between low and high voltages.

But what if you could control, manipulate, and augment the near-field reactive space by shaping it to do whatever you need?  If you wrapped that kind of power up in a single element, it could deliver a potent “omni-converter” that could do things literally impossible by other technologies.

Udi Daon, CEO of Daanaa Resolution Inc., is on a mission to eliminate power conversion inefficiencies, and redefining what’s possible in energy efficiency. This serial entrepreneur quickly identified Daanaa’s groundbreaking technology to revolutionize power conversion as soon as he saw it, which is why he was the fist investor and soon took the reins as CEO. Under his leadership, the company has developed a device that breaks free from magnetic reliance, instead using the entire electromagnetic spectrum, manipulating near-field reactive electromagnetic space to achieve ultra-efficient conversion. This technology can transform very low voltage into high voltage (and vice versa) in a single step with over 95% efficiency, opening up new possibilities for electric vehicles, solar panels, and data centers…and all in a package the size of your car’s key fob!

Tune-in as I tease out:

• How Daanaa’s technology enables efficient power transfer without relying on traditional magnetic induction methods.
• The practical benefits of converting ultra-low voltage from solar cells into usable energy for EVs.
• How Daanaa’s “omnipotency” boosts energy output from uneven surfaces with single-stage hyperconversion and bidirectional power.
• Udi Daon’s unique approach to scaling deep-tech solutions and aligning teams for success.

When I first met Udi (at Intersolar N. America a little over a year ago!) I was as skeptical as the next person when he told me what his pocket-sized device could achieve. And Udi says that this disbelief has been the hallmark (and primary hurdle) preventing their technology from scaling.  But I, for one, think they’re on the cusp of something truly remarkable.  And you get to say “I heard it first, on SunCast!” ;-)

Oh yeah, he’s also got a Lot to share about startup culture, lessons learned, etc from dozens of companies he’s founded or funded.

You will definitely get your money’s worth with this one!

NOTEWORTHY QUOTEs:

“We’re not creating energy from nothing… What we’re doing is eliminating waste, and if you’re eliminating waste. You need less.”

— Udi Daon

“We can go from 400 to three in a single, very high efficient step, right on the motherboard where the chip is.”

— Udi Daon
