Dual-Use Platform
Earth + Space Applications
We are building integrated energy harvesting and dust mitigation technology for electric vehicles and space missions. One platform. Two massive markets.
Why Invest in NanoHarvestX?
1. Solving Critical Problems
Earth: Urban fleets need to reduce charging costs and downtime. Our retrofit kits deliver 40+ miles of daily charge-free driving and $5,910+ annual savings per vehicle.
Space: Lunar and Mars missions require reliable solar power in dusty environments. Dust accumulation is the #1 environmental problem for long-duration surface missions—and we are the only active solution.
2. Dual-Use De-Risks Development
Near-Term Revenue: EV retrofit kits can deploy commercially in 2026-2027, generating revenue before space missions (2028+).
Not Dependent on Space Contracts: Unlike pure-play space companies, we are not betting everything on winning space agency contracts. Commercial EV revenue funds space R&D without diluting equity.
Cross-Validation: Earth deployments inform space design. Space validation demonstrates extreme durability for Earth applications.
3. Massive Total Addressable Market
Earth TAM: $119B+ global EV market
• 14M+ existing EVs in U.S. (retrofit opportunity)
• Growing at 40%+ annually
• Retrofit kit price: $5K-$8K per vehicle
Space TAM: $150M-$450M dust mitigation market
• Lunar missions: $80M-$200M (10-15 years)
• Mars missions: $50M-$150M (10-15 years)
• Per-mission value: $2M-$7M per system
Combined TAM: $119B+ across dual-use markets
4. Strong Mission Alignment
Earth Alignment: Global push for EV adoption, fleet electrification mandates, rising electricity costs, and demand for charging infrastructure alternatives.
Space Alignment: Artemis lunar program (2026+), Mars Sample Return (2028-2033), long-duration surface missions, and space agency identified dust mitigation as a critical unsolved problem.
Perfect Timing: Both markets are ready now.

Earth Market Differentiation
vs. Solar-Only Solutions:
Solar panels on EVs yield only 2-4 kWh/day. Our multi-modal system delivers 11.50 kWh/day—3x more energy.
vs. Single-Source Harvesters:
Thermal-only or vibration-only systems capture limited energy. We integrate 4+ sources for maximum yield.
vs. OEM-Only Solutions:
Factory integration requires new vehicle purchases. Our retrofit kits unlock 14M+ existing EVs today.
Our Edge: Multi-modal energy capture + retrofit flexibility + AI optimization = highest daily energy yield and fastest market entry.
Space Market Differentiation
Current Alternatives:
• Passive coatings: Still allow dust accumulation over time
• Mechanical brushes: Wear out, not space-proven, moving parts fail
• Gas jets: Require consumables, mass penalty, limited lifetime
• Electrostatic repulsion: Continuous power required, limited effectiveness
Our Advantage:
We are the ONLY integrated solution with no moving parts, minimal power overhead, and proven nano+piezo+AI approach. First-mover advantage in a critical unsolved problem.
Dual-Use as Competitive Moat
Most competitors focus on either Earth OR space—not both. This creates three advantages:
1. De-Risked Revenue: EV revenue funds space R&D without diluting equity. Not dependent on winning space contracts to survive.
2. Faster Validation: Earth deployments accelerate technology maturation. Space validation demonstrates extreme durability.
3. Broader Investor Appeal: Attract both climate tech AND space tech investors. Larger investor pool = easier fundraising at better terms.
Key Risks & Mitigation Strategies
Technical Risk: System Integration
Risk: Integrating nano-coatings, piezo actuators, and AI control into a unified system may encounter unforeseen technical challenges.
Mitigation:
• Component-level validation already complete in lab
• Phased integration approach (Earth first, then space)
• UC Berkeley partnership for materials characterization
• Experienced technical advisors (Dr. Santanu Mukherjee)
• Dual-use validation provides redundant testing pathways
Market Risk: Fleet Adoption
Risk: Fleet operators may be hesitant to adopt unproven retrofit technology despite ROI projections.
Mitigation:
• Strong ROI case (8.7-month payback)
• Pilot program with low-risk early partners
• 90-day validation period with performance guarantees
• Fleet financing options to reduce upfront cost
• Focus on forward-thinking fleet operators and early adopters
Regulatory Risk: Space Qualification
Risk: Space agency qualification and mission integration timelines may extend beyond projections.
Mitigation:
• Not dependent on space contracts for survival (EV revenue)
• Pursuing multiple space opportunities (lunar, Mars, LEO) in parallel
• Phase I/II/III pathway established and well-understood
• Early engagement with space agency stakeholders
• Commercial space customers as alternative pathway (satellites, lunar infrastructure)
Competitive Risk: Fast Followers
Risk: Larger companies may develop competing solutions once we prove market viability.
Mitigation:
• Patent pending on integrated nano+piezo+AI system
• First-mover advantage and early customer relationships
• Dual-use expertise difficult to replicate (requires both EV and space knowledge)
• Focus on rapid deployment and market penetration
• Strategic partnerships with OEMs and space agencies create barriers to entry
