About
eMBS develops modular and connected energy storage solutions that support the circular economy and accelerate clean energy adoption in underserved areas. Our flagship product, ePodlite, is a compact cylindrical battery that retrofits existing streetlight poles into solar-powered lighting systems—without replacing the pole. This reduces installation costs, CO₂ emissions, and waste by extending the life of existing infrastructure.
ePodlite integrates remote monitoring, theft protection, and predictive maintenance, making it ideal for municipalities and rural areas seeking smart, low-carbon public lighting solutions. Quick to deploy and easy to maintain, it enables a fast transition to renewable energy, even in off-grid environments.
