EnOcean and Texas Instruments agree to expand Energy Harvesting Technology cooperation

In Texas Instruments we have a strong partner, optimally supporting our innovative and self-powered wireless solutions with its ultra-low-power components,” said EnOcean's CEO Markus Brehler. “Together we can effectively develop market-driven Energy Harvesting wireless module solutions, which are an ideal basis for automation systems in sustainable buildings.

Innovations that make buildings more energy-efficient

Texas Instruments and EnOcean have collaborated since 2005 and TI components have been implemented in a variety of EnOcean modules. TI has also been a member of the EnOcean Alliance since 2008, working with other members of the Alliance on energy-efficient solutions for green buildings.

Energy harvesting wireless technology reduces the installation cost of lighting, heating/air conditioning control and monitoring by up to 70 percent. This technology enables long term energy conservation and sustainability for our customers,” said Laurent Giai-Miniet, general manager of TI’s Low-Power RF business unit. Cooperation with EnOcean is an important step towards gaining a firm foothold in a fast growing market. The deciding factor in the expansion of our relationship with EnOcean was their proven expertise of energy harvesting technology, with wide market experience and a broad customer base.
