The EEL Energy team was able to test this month of December, the scale model of our future 50KW tidal turbine.
The trials of this mini-barge went very well in the canal of our partner Aquanord in Gravelines and the green light was given to launch the construction of the new 50KW barge This 50KW tidal device will be tested in Brest harbor during the 2nd quarter of 2022 with the TSM Iroise mer teams that we know very well.
The EEL revolution is on the way and as French people we know a bit about revolution!

Thank you to Europe1 and Raphaëlle Duchemin for inviting us to talk about biomimicry and of course EEL ENERGY. To learn more, join us at the biomim’expo exhibition at the Cité des Sciences on October 22.
- EEL Energy

Biomimicry is a fast-growing approach, at the heart of disruptive innovation strategies of research centers, large companies and start-ups, on many subjects, including the energy transition… The approach allows us to break out of silos to innovate through decompartmentalized approaches, inspired by 3.8 billion years of R&D of living organisms! Biomim’expo, allowed the largest worldwide gathering of biomimicry. In the prestigious setting of the Cité des Sciences et de l’Industrie, Franck Sylvain, CEO of EEL ENERGY, was able to present the EEL ENERGY project to an audience of over 1000 participants.

EEL ENERGY was present on October 5th at the Founders Forum in Boston, a network that brings together the most promising players in global innovation. Invited and selected in the “Dassault Systèmes Rising Stars” panel since we are accelerated in their 3DEXPERIENCE Lab program, Franck Sylvain, CEO, was able to pitch the EEL ENERGY adventure, alongside promising start-ups and in front of a number of ultra-prestigious tech players (Google, Nest, Dreamworks, Palantir, Spotify, Shazam, Facebook ….). It was also an opportunity to listen to Tim Berners-Lee, inventor of the worldwide web, to meet funds, and to share his experiences with other disruptive start-ups in their field.

Eel energy has just obtained a first aid of 500K euros from the BPI and the Nord-Pas de Calais region. The company’s historical shareholders are subscribing to a €500k convertible bond. This financing will allow the company to finalize the 1/6 scale prototype intended for sea trials, and to launch the development work for the first 1/1 scale demonstrator.
Jean-Baptiste Drevet and Franck Sylvain are delighted with the support of the BPI and their shareholders who believe in this extraordinary project.
