Energy Machines

We're on a mission to revolutionize the way energy is handled in buildings. Energy Machines™ is a leader in the design, implementation, and operation of integrated energy systems for buildings. Buildings are a growing climate problem, accounting for over 28% of global CO2 emissions. We are working to transform them into climate solutions. By combining proven best-of-breed hardware with purpose-built software and simulation platforms, Energy Machines enables buildings to operate as “energy machines” or fully integrated systems that generate, store, and reuse their own energy. In order to revolutionize the way buildings are managed. We are developing a next generation computing platform. This platform will leverage cloud, IoT technologies and modern electronics to upgrade existing industrial systems. We envision a future in which buildings accelerate the world’s transition to sustainable energy. By turning every building into a high-performance energy machine, together we can achieve it.   *image source BLOX (Rasmus Hjortshøj)

Fischer Lighting

Fischer Lighting is a sustainable front-runner who has developed a unique circular business model where waste is transformed into new beautiful lamps that make buildings more sustainable and people healthier. In 2023, Fischer Lighting saved more than 53 tons of discarded lamps from being thrown away, and with the concepts ReUse, ReDesign, and ReCreate, unique lighting solutions are created in a beautiful and industrial design that meets all the requirements of a new lighting fixture. In addition to environmental sustainability, social sustainability is also an important part of the concept. Therefore, all the old lamps are separated and assembled by people on the edge of the labor market in Denmark. At the same time, the lamps are equipped with the latest technology, which, among other things, enables circadian lighting, which can stimulate the production of hormones in our body and create better well-being for people in buildings.

Updrift Copenhagen

Updrift Copenhagen er en dansk klima-startup, der gentænker, hvordan byer og mennesker lever med vand. Klimaforandringerne betyder kraftigere regn og hyppigere skybrud. Vores kloakker er ikke bygget til de vandmængder, og løsningen har hidtil været store, dyre anlæg – bassiner og tunneler til hundredvis af millioner, der graves dybt og tager årevis at bygge. Vi tror på en anden vej. Vores patenterede skybrudsventil monteres på husets nedløbsrør og leder skybruddet væk fra kloakken, ud på terræn, hvor det ikke gør skade, netop når presset på systemet er størst. Alene gør én ventil en lille forskel. Men sætter man dem op mange steder i et område, aflaster de tilsammen hele kloaksystemet. Vi kalder det mikroinfrastruktur: mange små greb, der tilsammen løser et stort problem. Effekten er dokumenteret gennem hydraulisk modellering og test hos Teknologisk Institut og WSP, og løsningen er allerede i brug i over 400 husstande på tværs af fire danske kommuner. I ét pilotprojekt erstattede vores ventiler et planlagt betonbassin - med samme effekt på kloakken, til under en tredjedel af prisen og med et markant lavere CO₂-aftryk. Vores mission er at gøre klimatilpasning demokratisk, billigere, hurtigere og mere bæredygtig - og at vise, at de bedste løsninger ikke altid er de største. Læs mere på updrift-cph.dk.

RiskFinder

RiskFinder helps the companies that keep heat, water and power running stay ready when something goes wrong. Our customers are utilities and critical infrastructure operators. Every year they face more cyber threats, extreme weather, supply chain failures and new rules. Most of them already have emergency plans and risk assessments. But the information sits in long documents, spreadsheets and people's heads. That is exactly where it is useless in a real crisis. We turn it into something teams can use under pressure: clear action cards, live risk tracking, exercise planning, supplier and asset overviews, and the proof that they are ready. This is not a tool for auditors. It is for the person on shift when a plant goes down at 3am, who has to make the call and keep the city warm. Those are the high-stakes moments we build for. When it counts, the work has to hold. We are early. RiskFinder is a small operation working with serious customers on hard problems. There is no narrow lane to stay in. You will see how the whole thing fits together, from talking to the people who run a plant to shipping the feature that helps them. If you want your work to land on something real, with people who genuinely need it, this is a good place to spend your time.

Os Om Havet

Os Om Havet er en frivillig organisation, der ønsker at sætte fokus på forurening af verdenshavene. Det er et stigende problem for de marine økosystemer. Omkring 70 procent af al affald, der ender i havet, synker til bunds. Her kan det have store konsekvenser for havmiljøet og er samtidig utilgængeligt for traditionelle oprydningsmetoder. Os Om Havet holder derfor arrangementer, hvor dykkere og andre ildsjæle fra hele Danmark samles og i fællesskab rydder op både over, under og i havet. Vi tror, at en god oplevelse i naturen kan skabe motivation og engagement til at handle på nogle af de store udfordringer, miljøet står overfor. Os Om Havet er mere end svømmefødder og iltflasker. Med foredrag og skoleforløb ønsker vi at udbrede budskabet og gå sammen om at få skabt en bæredygtig fremtid, hvor mennesket og naturen i højere grad forenes. Kom og bliv en del af fællesskabet! Hvis man gerne vil sikre sig, at Os Om Havet fortsætter kampen mod forurening af vores havmiljø, kan man blive Os Om Havet støttemedlem for 200kr årligt. Der er massere af fordele ved at blive et Os Om Havet støttemedlem: udover at hjælpe os med fortsat at kunne afholde events mm. har vi sørget for en række rabataftaler med vores samarbejdspartnere, mulighed for at låne vores affaldsindsamlingsgear året rundt, og ikke mindst vil man modtage Os Om Havets nyhedsbrev, så man aldrig behøver gå glip af et fremtidigt arrangement. Hvis du har lyst til at støtte vores arbejde, skal du sende os en e-mail på medlem@osomhavet.dk med navn, e-mail og telefonnummer - så kontakter vi dig.

klimascore.com

Klimascore er den nye danske standardparameter for klimavenlige hoteller. Igennem de sidste 4 år har vi arbejdet sammen med ledende hoteller i Danmark, samt afholdt en årlig kåring, Climate Award, for at finde Danmarks mest klimavenlige hotel. Klimascore er baseret på hotellernes egne data og direkte udledning. I nær dialog med hotelledelsen og nøgleansatte hjælper vi herefter hotellerne med at blive mere klimavenlige samtidigt med at de driver deres forretning fremad, både ift. at opnå besparelser, men også i forhold til branding, medarbejdertilfredshed m.m.
