About GMG
GMG is an Australian based clean-technology business which establishes, makes and offers energy conserving and energy storage services, allowed by graphene produced through in home production procedure. GMG utilizes its own exclusive production procedure to decay gas (i.e. methane) into its natural aspects, carbon (as graphene), hydrogen and some recurring hydrocarbon gases. This procedure produces high quality, low expense, scalable, ‘tuneable’ and low/no pollutant graphene ideal for usage in clean-technology and other applications.
The Company’s present focus is to de-risk and establish business scale-up abilities, and protected market applications. In the energy cost savings section, GMG has actually at first concentrated on graphene boosted heating, ventilation and a/c (“HVAC-R”finishing (or energy-saving finish) which is now being marketed into other applications consisting of electronic heat sinks, commercial procedure plants and information centres. Another item GMG has actually established is the graphene lube additive concentrated on conserving liquid fuels at first for diesel motor.
In the energy storage section, GMG and the University of Queensland are working collaboratively with financial backing from the Australian Government to advance R&D and commercialization of GMG Graphene Batteries. GMG has actually likewise established a graphene additive slurry that is intended to enhance the efficiency of lithium-ion batteries.
GMG’s 4 important service goals are:
- Produce Graphene and improve/scale cell production procedures
- Build Revenue from Energy Savings Products
- Establish Next-Generation Battery
- Establish Supply Chain, Partners & & Project Execution Capability
