Reducing Our Risk

Kalisaya Ltd.

An Overview Of Our Solution

 

Kalisaya has set itself to be the leader in portable energy solutions - for emergencies or any other occasion where the grid is not available.

 

We wanted to provide an immediate response to the first resource that is cut-off during a natural disaster – electricity.

We wanted to connect people to outdoor experiences while providing them connectivity they are used to have while at home

We wanted to connect people to each other  - and to power – without affecting the environment, and with zero emissions

We wanted to replace the Diesel Generator.

We have ended up designing the ultimate survival power pack, reaching the best weight-to-power ratio while maintaining the ease of carrying a beautifully designed pack - we call it the KaliPAK™

The pack is autonomous by way of incorporating a folding solar panel with a patented fixture that allows high solar charging efficiency.

Problem

Hazard

Wind

Identify the likelihood and frequency of this hazard

The rate of power outages resulting from natural disasters is incereasing. >450 affecting disasters reported in 2010

Explain how vulnerable the community is to this hazard

The first source to be cut off due to natural disaster is electric power, leaving individuals and communities without light, heat or communication. This affects the general population as well as the officials and rescue units operating during emergencies

List the potential affects of this hazard

Impact can vary between discomfort and fear, panic, life disrupting to fatal injuries due to lack of communication while suffering injuries.

Identify how sensitive the community is to these affects

As technology and communications progresses, more and more aspects of our lives rely heavily on connectivity and electricity thus escalating sensitivity. Add to this the anxiety and fear level of not being well-prepared for extended power outages.
Action

Preparedness Goal

we created a power pack that is robust, weatherproof sustainable and autonomous- providing long term solution for extended power outages.

Implementation Actions

Our solution, the KaliPAK™, is  autonomous and packed with energy to last a long time, allowing to survive in extended periods of black-out.

The KaliPAK™ is lightweight so that a kid could carry it too.

The KaliPAK™ is durable so as to withstand conditions of more severe natural disasters.

 

The 601 - Our Flagship KaliPAK has a whopping 590 Wh and 39 Ah of energy.
With probably the best Energy/weight ratio around, it has enough for 10 nights of full LED lighting and charging a few smartphones and iPads once or twice a day. It can charge your ultrabook or macbook several times and even provide enough juice to supply a whole day of fun running a beer-cooler for several hours.
Comes with the Kalisaya 4X Solar Panel Fixture that will make it completely energy-autonomous.
The built-in bluetooth pairs with your Smartphone, and after downloading your free KaliAPP - your KaliPAK becomes a very smart energy resource.
The 601 includes the basic Survivor’s PowerKit - all the essentials for off the grid energy.
This is your safe harbor for when the next Sandy or one of her kinds strikes again.

Solution

Describe Your Solution

Our solution or power pack will allow individuals and communities to be prepared for the next natural disaster. Giving them enough energy to have light, heat and communication. it can be charged using sun energy so even if the black out period is extensive it can recharge using natural resources while giving output of power supply.

Our free, downloadable iOS/Android APP will make sure the KaliPAK (power pack) is always charged and ready for whatever comes their way and will advise them of their usage rate during disaster times, so that they can plan ahead and reduce the fear factor

Our solution is durable so that it may serve for many years. It is light weight and operates via a simple on / off button so that even a child can operate and carry it around. It is safe and environmentally friendly, and as opposed to diesel and petrol generator that generate CO emmissions -  that in turn, increase natural disasters, the KaliPAK is emissions-free and in due time its battery is properly removed and recycled.

Results

Economic?

We have initiated a direct marketing campaign in the US and recieved raving responses. We are currently setting in motion our first production line, with units expected to ship in August 2015.

We have been approached by several national and international organizations that expressed interest to place an order for their rescue, paramedic or other civil units. 

Our product is not the only solution in the market however it has many differentiating factors that make it unique.

Listed below are our differentiating factors:

·         All in one solution thanks to our patented folding solar panel fixture

·         Energy/weight ratio (600W/H – 6KG, 400W/H – 4.8KG) we are the lightest pack on the market with such power output

·         Pairing the pack with the smart-phone and relaying all data

·         High durability while maintaining light weight and easy carrying ability.

·         Large number of use cases:

1.       Home disaster preparedness and recovery

2.       Rescue and official teams' energy packs

3.       Tactic energy packs for armed forces

4.       Outdoor and extreme sports users

5.       Outdoors family travelers – camping, picnics etc.

6.       Energy packs for communities where infrastructure is non- existent 

·         Price. We are 25% more cost efficient compared to similar products.

·         Sense of security-when buying this pack you are able to store in its compartments many emergency case accessories, from first aid kit through a satellite phone and LED lamps.

Environmental?

Our KaliPAK is 100% environmentally friendly. Unlike the common generators that provide energy but emit CO, our packs have ZERO emissions.They can be charged using solar energy hence saving on electrical consumption for re-use of the pack.

Our R&D team is currently working towards development and design of a portable wind turbine that can charge the KaliPAK and provide an additional green energy power source.

Social?

From a social stand point our product answers a common need of the community for being prepared for a natural disaster, having the piece of mind that power will not be an obstacle.

Due to our product's multi use-cases it can be enjoyed throughout the year for more leisurely family fun activity while out in nature.

The free downloadable APP that connects to the KaliPAK will allow the users to socialise with fellow pack users and share critical disaster related information and even activate emergency beacons.

What were the negative or unintended impacts (if any) associated with implementing this solution?

we have not yet encountered any negative impact.

Replication/Scale

Return on Investment: How much did it cost to implement these activities? How do your results above compare to this investment?

  • We have been developing our products for over 2.5 years with an investment that has been just under 1M$
  • With current production forecast we expect to have an operating profit within the next 2 years.
  • We are committed to lead the market in portable energy solutions for emergencies as well as daily outdoor activities, therefore we are looking to raise additional capital to fullfill our R&D plan, that includes:
