“The electrification of drilling rigs and the impact on decarbonization initiatives in drilling operations across North America is accelerating the demand for hEMS units”
CleanDesign purchases hybrid Energy Management System (hEMS) lithium-ion battery units from CleanDesign Power Systems once they are installed and running on drilling rigs. This hEMS technology significantly reduces fuel consumption and CO2 emissions.
Each hEMS generates ongoing cash flow throughout the life of the unit. This financing allows CleanDesign to fulfill contracts for additional hEMS units throughout North America.

With ninety-nine percent of CleanDesign’s revenue coming from the deployment of hEMS units, CleanDesign continues to positively impact environmental sustainability while providing an income-generating investment for our shareholders.”
“Cleantech is one of Canada’s fastest-growing sectors. FirePower is committed to understanding the demands and putting creative growth financing solutions to work, supporting the global potential of Canadian cleantech companies like CleanDesign,” commented Trevor Simpson, Associate Partner, Private Debt at FirePower.
