OUR STORY

Augwind is an Israeli technology company founded in 2012 by Or Yogev, PHD, with the mission to develop an alternative solution to energy storage.

In 2019, the company had completed a merging process with the public company “Biomedico Hadarim” (currently named Augwind Energy), which trades on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange.

Augwind is actively installing and maintaining operational compressed air storage units throughout Israel. This experience has refined Augwinds understanding of the energy industry to a point where they are ready to apply their knowledge to develop the next evolutionary stage in energy storage.

The company took its first steps in the Hon Teva technology incubator, where it developed and deployed their compressed air storage technology.

Backed by significant support from the Chief Scientist of Israel and the European Union, Augwind took major steps to developing their patented technologies.

The product has already been sold to leading enterprises in Israel (Including: the aerospace industry, Strauss and Tnuva) and marketed in various geographical arenas. Various applications of this product are also used by the Israeli security system.
