Excited to announce that we have partnered with ToffeeX to explore the implementation of topology optimisation within rocket engine regenerative cooling channels.
Using a combination of this software and in-house models, we are exploring optimal designs for this thermal-fluid system!
This research is funded by the UK Space Agency and will culminate in a hot-fire test campaign of the optimised designs in 2025. Looking forward with sharing more on this soon!
The #droneindustry is experiencing unprecedented growth, driven by technological advancements, expanding applications, and increasing regulatory acceptance. From delivery services to agriculture, infrastructure inspection to emergency response, drones are revolutionizing numerous sectors with their efficiency and versatility.
In this rapidly evolving landscape, propulsion technology plays a crucial role. That's why I'm excited to share this in-depth interview with Anmol Manohar - CEng, MRAeS, CEO of Greenjets, an Excellis portfolio company. Greenjets is experiencing explosive growth thanks to their innovative electric propulsion systems for drones of all types. Their technology addresses specific requirements such as speed, quietness, efficiency, or a combination of these characteristics, meeting the diverse needs of this booming industry.
Congratulations to Anmol for his visionary leadership in this cutting-edge field, and to Dr Guido A. I. Monterzino, CTO of Greenjets, for the technical brilliance driving the company's innovations. Your work is not only advancing drone capabilities but also contributing to more sustainable and efficient solutions across multiple industries. Be bold and let's build the "Rolls Royce" of #ElectricAviation !

Great to see our portfolio company Zaphiro Technologies coming to our home city, Turin, to implement its unique grid distribution monitoring technology !
Congrats to all the team and...well, not sure if I'm willing to see your technology in action to recover from summertime blackouts (that last year they costed me some 8 hours of work, lacking of an APS like most of the people I know).Let's focus on grid monitoring and faults prevention !
Distribution System Operators are globally facing a multitude of challenges due to an ageing grid infrastructure that has to accommodate an increasing number of new type of loads (such as electric vehicles, heat pumps, etc.) and renewable energy sources.
In such a context, we are excited to share that Zaphiro has recently started a collaboration with IRETI S.p.A., the DSO of the city of #Turin in Italy, aimed at enhancing fault management capabilities, ensuring swift and accurate responses to minimize, or potentially prevent, any disruptions for the community.
The unique value proposition of Zaphiro's PMU-based Fault Locator, in comparison to traditional technologies like FPIs, includes:
- Speed: fault location is typically reported in <100 ms from the fault occurrence;
- Accuracy: first identifies the faulted area delimited by PMU devices and, for high-current faults, it calculates the fault distance with typical errors of about 100 meters;
- Sensitivity: able to detect and locate low-current (ground/high impedance) as well as short-duration (incipient) faults;
- Reliability: thanks to the high quality of synchrophasor measurements and the use of adaptive thresholds, Zaphiro’s fault locator is characterized by extremely low occurrence of false alarms;
- Speed of deployment: Just a handful of devices are required, interfacing to the grid with clamp-on current sensors only.
