Folivora = Sloth

Instead of defying gravity upright, sloths spend most of their lives hanging upside down in the branches of trees. They move very slowly.

Energy Efficiency

Sloths have specialized in their conservation to cope with nutrient-poor leaves. As a result, they must save energy at every turn.

Omnipresent renewable rather than fossil energy sources

The sloth uses omnipresent food sources instead of high-energy and rarer food sources, such as ripe fruit, which must be searched for with difficulty.

Decentralization and locality

Sloths have very long arms but only very short shoulder blades. This gives them a maximum range of motion for localized feeding.

Where do we come from?

is a 2023 spin-off of the Institute of Mechatronic Systems (Energy Systems Research Group) from the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Technical University of Darmstadt.

With our many years of experience in energy systems research and scientific consulting and implementation in the context of large industrial real estate projects, we bridge the gap between research and practice and make the energy transition economically attractive.
