Founded in 2008 by Norma Byron, Ashlawn Energy LLC is a woman-owned business that specializes in advanced battery technology to promote sustainable energy solutions. The company’s flagship product, the VanCharg™ battery, is developed to store energy from electrical sources, enabling buildings to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions and significant savings on utility costs. Ashlawn leverages federal funding and has successfully filed five patents related to its innovative technology.
Located primarily in New York City, Ashlawn has established vital partnerships and affiliations that bolster its mission. The company is a part of the Koffman Clean Energy Incubator at Binghamton University and the Prototype-to-Production cohort at REV: Ithaca Startup Works, reflecting its commitment to research and development in the clean energy sector.
The VanCharg™ battery system not only addresses the urgency of climate change but also assists building owners in complying with New York City's Local Law 97, which imposes fines on buildings failing to meet set carbon emission targets. Ashlawn's technology offers a dual benefit: it enhances energy efficiency for buildings while ensuring they meet regulatory compliance, thus avoiding potential penalties. Additionally, the VanCharg™ system operates without the safety risks associated with lithium-ion batteries, positioning Ashlawn as a leader in safe and efficient energy solutions.
Ashlawn Energy LLC is committed to its values of innovation and sustainability, with a passionate team that includes experts from various fields, ranging from engineering to market research. Their vision is to create a greener future through cutting-edge technology, strategically designed to meet the needs of modern energy consumers while addressing the critical challenge of climate change.
