EnOcean GmbH is the originator of patented self-powered wireless technology. Headquartered in Oberhaching near Munich, the company manufactures and markets maintenance-free wireless sensor solutions for use in buildings and industrial installations as well as in further application fields such as smart home, smart metering, logistics or structural health monitoring.
EnOcean products are based on a combination of miniaturized energy converters, ultra-low-power electronic circuitry and reliable wireless. Today wireless modules from EnOcean are integrated worldwide by more than 150 manufacturers to enable their system ideas for buildings and industries.
No matter whether you press a switch or a door handle, energy is always released and precisely this energy can be used intelligently to replace batteries. The result was wireless sensors that draw the power they need from their surroundings: from motion, light or differences in temperature for example. The ambient energy obtained in this way suffices to send a wireless signal and turn on a light. EnOcean technology can be integrated in a whole variety of customer applications, straightforward and simply, by means of intelligent software stacks.
With EnOcean Link, EnOcean has launched the first middleware for energy harvesting wireless technology. The software provides a universal interface for wireless communication and automatically interprets information from EnOcean telegrams. OEMs can now integrate EnOcean technology easier and faster into a wide range of applications and systems, such as those in smart homes.
EnOcean GmbH was founded in 2001 as a spin-off from Siemens AG.
EnOcean Alliance
EnOcean GmbH is member of the EnOcean Alliance. Leading companies worldwide from the building sector collected to form the EnOcean Alliance and establish innovative automation solutions for sustainable building projects – and so to make buildings more energy-efficient, more flexible and lower in cost. The core technology of the Alliance is EnOcean’s energy harvesting wireless technology. The organization aims to standardize and internationalize this technology, and is dedicated to creating interoperability between the products of OEM partners. Basis for this is the international wireless standard ISO/IEC 14543-3-10. More than 350 companies currently belong to the EnOcean Alliance, offering over 1,200 interoperable products based on the EnOcean standard.
