Business plan
Laki will produce and sell the Power On-Line Generator directly to end users and establish a distributor network.
During the three to five year development period, zero or minor income revenue is expected. Thereafter and for the next 5 years on, the annual revenue income is estimated to be 8 to 10 million dollars. From the year 2025 (after 10 years), the revenue stream is estimated to be above 20 million dollars per year

Product status
Extensive studies and calculations have been substantiated by preliminary tests performed in a controlled test environment. Thorough tests performed in cooperation with the TSO (Transmission System Operator) granted the Power On-Line generator a proof of concept.
The next steps include building prototypes to be installed onto operational high voltage transmission lines for final testing. After that the Power On-Line Generator will ready for production.

Problem
The international geothermal power market is booming, generating billions of dollars in revenues and expected to double in 10 years time. However, the petroleum industry is 50 times bigger and that is why most of the equipment that is used in geothermal power production has been adapted from the petroleum industry. This has been creating problems because the equipment has been failing in operation, generating risk, cost and revenue losses. One of this equipment is the wellhead valve, which is used to open and close geothermal wells.
Solution
Loki Geothermal will be producing, selling and servicing equipment specifically
designed for the geothermal market, starting with the wellhead valve and the
Icelandic market. This will lower operational cost by up to $150.000 per year and
prevent failures that can generate millions of dollars in revenue losses.

Creating Value from Waste
We recycle waste from the aluminium industry and produce metal alloy in an environmentally friendly and effective way.
Problem
Aluminium smelters produce aluminium in pots, but those pots have only a certain lifetime normally five to six years. The material is taken from those used pots is a waste, so called SPL and it is a hazardous material. This waste is a huge problem for the industry today.
Solution
We will mix this SPL waste with ore and melt it in the electric furnace. The output is Nickel Pig Iron that is high-value metal alloy used worldwide to produce stainless steel.

We intend to bring you a solution that not only benets you but does so in a way that does not require your extra attention. You simply start living a more comfortable life where simple worries like “did I remember to turn off the light” don´t apply. Where you feel that your home is serving you instead of the other way around, a level of comfort that makes the “regular home” seem unintuitive and unhelpful.
Rofar Technology is the maker of tomorrow’s intelligent switch; we take the next step from smart to intelligent.

We at XRG Power are going to offer a solution that solves this problem. XRG power will offer personal micro binary generators that can produce electricity from low heat geothermal water, between 70°C to 135°C. The micro binary generator is a closed loop system that uses a second working fluid, the binary fluid, with a low boiling point. The generator will be affordable, small and optimal for personal and small-scale commercial usage.
