In Episode 169 of the Disruptors for Good podcast, I speak with Dr. Jules Hammond, CEO & Co-founder of BeFC, on biofuel cells and the future of sustainable batteries. Billions of batteries are disposed of every year. Conventional batteries often contain toxic materials, metals, and dangerous electrolytes. BeFC is about to change this dynamic.

• 15 billion primary batteries are disposed of every year
• 97% of miniature batteries end up in landfill or are incinerated
• 1 in 3 adults admit to regularly throwing batteries in the bin

The BeFC biofuel cells are a revolutionary way to power electronics. Combining advanced chemistry and nanomaterials, these cells are capable of providing high performance energy in a safe and sustainable way.

They can be used to power everyday items like smartphones, tablets, or even robots. The cells utilize organic materials, meaning they are completely metal-free and biodegradable. This makes them ideal for use in environmentally sensitive areas where traditional batteries may be harmful to the environment.

Additionally, BeFC biofuel cells offer traceability and transparency which allows for greater insights into the impacts of energy consumption. In terms of performance, these cells boast higher energy density than traditional batteries and have a longer operational life with minimal self-discharge. With this in mind, the use of BeFC biofuel cells is an effective way to reduce waste while still providing an efficient source of energy.
