Uses

Our new lightweight and user-friendly design opens up a world of possibilities for our Smart Reflectors.

People are still coming up with new ways to use our reflectors.  If you have one not shown below please get in touch.

Clean Heat

Finally, you can get easy access to truly clean and affordable heat.

You’ll be able to order your smart reflector(s) and have them sent directly to you. Setup takes just moments, and they will automatically heat any area within their line of sight that you choose-no need for lengthy or costly plumbing or building work. Because they’re so lightweight, they can be installed almost anywhere: on existing walls, corrugated roofs, fence posts, and more—delivering what one early tester, John Shirt, described as “a far more pleasant heat.”

Free Energy Storage

Smart Reflectors now let you to choose where heat from the sun is stored.

Soon, we’ll be adding software that allows our reflectors to automatically learn where to direct and store heat inside a building, so it’s released when you need it. For short-term heating – over a few days – they can direct heat to lightweight structures such as furniture and plasterboard walls. For longer-term needs – over several weeks – they can store heat in larger structures such as brick walls and ground floors. Our system will be tailored to your needs by creating a custom thermal model of your building and tracking live online weather forecasts too.

Boost Solar Panels

Our reflectors can direct themselves at solar panels automatically to significantly boost their output whenever needed.

Old solar panel systems on a generous solar feed-in tariff often lose substantial income when shadows are cast over them. Since these systems usually can’t be moved or modified without losing the tariff, Smart Reflectors offer a solution: they can track the shadow and redirect sunlight to restore that lost revenue. Additionally, our reflectors can monitor live local electricity demand and automatically boost either your own or neighbour’s solar panels when the potential earnings are highest.

Design

Until now, you had no control over where the sun’s energy came from or where it went. Smart Reflectors change that – giving you effortless control over both.

You can brighten previously dull, dark, dingy corners of your home or commercial building with bright, natural sunlight. Alongside the financial and health benefits, this will breathe new light into your spaces, at a fraction of the cost of installing a new window or skylight, all while preserving your insulation and energy performance rating.

Cooling

In summer, our reflectors can simply reflect the sun’s energy back into space, preventing it from heating anything behind them.

Unlike typical cooling systems—such as heat pumps—that generate heat while running and can actually worsen heatwaves, our reflectors are unique. When used in cooling mode, they help cool not only the local area but also the planet, in the same way that lost ice from the polar ice caps once did. Instead of contributing to global warming, they actively help reverse it!

Health Benefits

In our initial tests, the first reported health benefit of enjoying more natural sunlight wasn’t just reduced energy usage—it was improved sleep.

Humans evolved to receive far more sunlight than we typically get in modern life, which has led to well-documented health issues. SAD (seasonal affective disorder) lamps can be costly and inconvenient, often providing only a limited portion of the sun’s full spectrum—and not always delivering benefits that justify the effort.

So why not enjoy the full spectrum of natural sunlight, directed right to you wherever you choose?

Swimming Pools

Heat your swimming pool naturally while brightening the space and even topping up your tan as you swim.

All of this is possible without any additional plumbing or major building work. The reflected sunlight can also create stunning natural light displays from even the slightest ripples on the water’s surface. Plus, our reflectors work perfectly alongside any existing solar thermal system you may already use to heat your pool.

Community

At their core, Smart Reflectors are a community energy system. They offer a fast, clean, and net-zero energy solution for the entire community.

Since an owner can allow others in the neighbourhood to control their reflectors-and the reflectors can direct energy to anyone within their line of sight- neighbours benefit together, while also maximising the community’s overall carbon reduction potential.

Saving Money

A reflector can pay for itself much faster than many other energy systems, saving you thousands of pounds over its lifetime.

In addition, you can sell excess energy to your neighbours, increasing your income and effectively becoming your own energy provider—rather than paying a supplier as you did before. Each reflector produces 1kW, and with over 1,400 hours of sunlight per year in an average UK city, a single reflector could save more than 1,000 kWh of energy annually. Depending on how much you previously spent to generate that heat, the reflector could save you over £200 in just one year.

Commercial

Buildings such as schools, supermarkets, shopping centres or any buildings with many skylights and/or solar panels at the back are ideal setups. 

The reflectors can provide shade in summer, heat in winter, and boost solar PV performance during the rest of the year. We haven’t tested this setup yet, so if this sounds like your building, please let us know.

Industrial

As our reflectors are so lightweight, they can be added in large numbers to standard corrugated roofs.

Existing industrial facilities such as foundries or kilns may be cost effectively upgraded to run from clean heat energy, hugely slashing carbon emissions and energy bills. We have yet to test industrially, so if this sounds like your building, please contact us.

Climate

Our reflectors are unique in their ability to prevent many tons of CO₂ emissions over their lifetime, with minimal materials and environmental impact.

With a refundable deposit to encourage their return, our reflectors can be easily sent back to us at the end of their life for recycling. They can also power a wide range of photochemical carbon capture and usage/ storage devices. In the future, this could make it more cost-effective to “grow” buildings from carbon in the air, much like how trees grow, rather than using traditional construction methods. This points toward a future where we capture vast amounts of carbon and begin to truly repair the climate.

Aid

As our reflectors are so lightweight and compact, they may be rapidly and affordably deployed to remote, hard to reach areas where they can be effortlessly setup and used immediately.

At 1kW each, a single donkey could easily carry a 50kW system around a small mountain pass. The software and hardware can be modified to accommodate for lack of internet and be made ultra easy to use without an app or external control, so simply directing and tapping a reflector would be all that’s needed.
