About

Antismog uses hydrogen to decarbonize any thermal engine from cars to boats. Typical figures are 80% average reduction un particle matters (PM) as well as 10 to 15% in Co2 reduction, be it diesel, gasoline or LPG fuels. Up to end of 2022, Antismog tried to develop their sales, selling individual “onboard” stations, which are relatively complex to install, via car & trucks garages which were not really enthusiastic because margins where not e=high enough. Also car manufacturers warned that theses stations would all void engine warrant. So that technology would only work on used cars. That business model failed to deliver enough traction to generate interest and raise funds. After careful market data analysis and looking at alternative solutions, it was decided to develop the company according to new business directions : 1° Till the day when “on board stations” would see their price nearly divided by a factor of 10 we have decided to feature our hydrogen station which generates up to 600l of hydrogen per hour. This innovative solution allows to decarbonize a thermal engine in two hours at a cost of 20€ per hour. This procedure has to be renewed about once a month. Furthermore, one machine can clean about 200 to 300 different engines per month. We have also modified our target markets. We are interested to speak with large companies and/or cites operating directly or indirectly any utility vehicle such as small delivery trucks, buses, garbage garage trucks, fire engines, boats and generators. We ill only deal with garages provided car or truck manufacturers “recommends” their networks to use our technology. Antismog retains ownership of the hardware and bills each transaction. Therefore most clients will not have any capital investment to make, just guarantee a minimum transactions per year. Roughly 300 per year. This might seem high, but no. Let’s take an example. A garbage collector in average uses a fleet of 20 trucks. And will use one machine to decarbonize all trucks. If they decarbonize each truck, once a month, that will do it t a cost of 4800 € per year, roughly compared to purchasing 20 units at a cost of 2000 € each including installation = 40 000 €. Plus the cost of maintaining 20 different units on 20 different engines, all being passed warranty, compared to maintaining only one equipment. We have tested our new business model at Vivatechnology show in Paris. Results are extremely positive, traction is high. To the point we have invented a new acronym for it HAAS for Hardware As A Service.
