Louvain-la-Neuve, Belgium– e-peas has announced the successful closing of USD 22-million in financing. This significant investment will propel e‑peas to the forefront of the global Ambient IoT market and accelerate its international expansion. The financing will enable the company to rapidly scale its commercial growth, expand into new international markets, and diversify its product offering to meet the explosive demand for sustainable, battery-independent electronic systems. e‑peas also took the opportunity of this financing round to streamline its shareholder structure.
Supporting the global leader of the fast-growing Ambient IoT market
e‑peas is redefining power efficiency with a portfolio of ultra‑low power management products that enable electronic devices to operate autonomously from ambient energy sources such as light, RF, vibration, and heat. By pushing the limits of energy efficiency, e‑peas unlocks battery‑free or long‑lifetime operation across consumer electronics, smart buildings, and industrial IoT.
Its solutions already power high‑volume applications, including solar-powered remote controls, HVAC systems, cameras, and smart tracking devices, for leading global customers. In such applications, this approach extends system life and eliminates the operational costs and environmental damage of using disposable batteries. By reducing or eliminating battery replacement, e‑peas’ solutions help lower electronic waste and total cost of ownership while supporting sustainability objectives for OEMs and end users.
