High capacity drone spreading system

Nordluft Automation offers solutions of forestry and agriculture spreading systems using drones. The solutions offered by the company are focused on two areas: First, forest fertilization, where a group of drones combined with a platform can be used to increase the growth rate of forests while also increasing the amount of CO2 absorbed per area unit. The second main application is ash recycling, where ash created as a by-product in different applications is spread to provide forests with additional nutrients. For both applications, Nordluft has developed their own specialized drone, the NordKopter.

Building energy automation

Nordomatic provides solutions for building automation focusing on “smart buildings” and energy efficiency in larger properties. The concept is based on an approach towards heating, cooling and ventilation, which is referred to as ‘brilliant energy building automation.’ The concept entails utilising all the surplus energy which is generated in a building but often not utilised. The concept takes into account the property’s shell, giving each property a unique thermal inertia, which is utilised through optimised control.

Spinning cylinder for wind power of vessels

Windjammers were a class of sailing vessels built from the 1870s to 1900. As engine technology developed, they were slowly phased out and replaced by steamships which were faster and could stay on schedule regardless of wind conditions. The idea behind Norsepower’s Rotor Sail Solution is to develop a spinning cylinder that harnesses wind power to generate the thrust needed to propel modern vessels. When conditions are favorable, the Norsepower Rotor Sails allow the main engines to be throttled back, saving fuel and reducing emissions while providing the power needed to maintain speed and voyage time.
