DEOGAM, a South Korean company specializing in energy-efficient EV technology, is making headlines. Founded in 2022, DEOGAM has created groundbreaking technology to improve EV power efficiency by recovering energy lost during operation. This innovation positions the company as a key player in sustainable mobility, driving the eco-friendly evolution of the EV market.
DEOGAM’s Electric Recycling System: A Game Changer
Electric vehicles rely on batteries that store direct current (DC) power. It must be converted into alternating current (AC) to run the motor. This conversion, handled by an inverter, often leads to energy loss due to heat and harmonics, lowering overall power efficiency.
As EV performance improves, energy loss increases, reducing the vehicle’s range and efficiency. This challenge has long been a barrier to maximizing EV performance and lowering operating costs
To overcome this challenging threshold, DEOGAM developed the Electric Recycling System (ERS), powered by a Toroid energy core. This system captures energy lost due to harmonics during the DC-to-AC power conversion and transforms it back into usable power for the vehicle. The Toroid energy core induces electromagnetism, recovering lost energy, which is also converted into stable electric power using a Buck and Boost motor. This process allows effective energy transfer, indeed with substantial fluctuations in input voltage.
Boosting Energy Efficiency and Reducing Operational Costs
In internal tests, DEOGAM’s Electric Recycling System delivered exceptionally attractive results. The technology recovered 18% of energy lost due to harmonics, perfecting the driving range of EVs by over 10%.
This invention could lead to significant cost savings. On average, it can reduce periodic maintenance costs by roughly KRW 700,000 (USD 500). These advancements not only profit EV users but also EV taxis. Thus supporting global sustainability goals by reducing energy waste. The field test results are presented at CES 2025 in Las Vegas.
Looking ahead, DEOGAM has signed a MoU with Kakao Mobility to introduce its technology to electric taxis across South Korea. Starting in April 2025, the company plans to install its electric recycling system in 500 electric taxis in Jeju. By using Kakao Mobility’s expansive network, DEOGAM aims to establish a strong presence in Germany, Norway, and major U.S. cities. This collaboration marks a major step towards remarkable collaborations with eco-friendly technology.
Vision for Carbon Neutrality
CEO Jin Ouk Kim highlighted the need for achieving carbon neutrality, and world-class companies are aiming to achieve success by keeping sustainability at their heart. He explained how DEOGAM electric recycling technology could transform global energy consumption without compromising on the environment.
Kim said if DEOGAM ECS is installed in 14 million EVs worldwide, with each EV driving just 30 km. We could recover over 3 million megawatts of energy which equals the daily output of 10 nuclear power plants or the environmental benefit of planting 12 million trees. This bold vision underlines DEOGAM’s charge to contribute to carbon impartiality while perfecting EV performance encyclopedically.
DEOGAM’s Electric Recycling System not only recovers energy but also tracks real-time power usage from both the battery and motor. The system monitors the quantum of energy recovered, creating a precious database that can be useful to EV users. Kim addressed, “Starting with electric taxis in 2025, we plan to expand to electric buses by 2030. We will keep gathering and refining data from public transportation to promote eco-friendly mobility.“
DEOGAM Electric Recycling Systems For A Greener Future
DEOGAM’s system aligns with the rising demand for green energy results and the global drive for carbon impartiality, making it an ideal fit for eco-conscious requests.
Looking forward, DEOGAM has a long-term vision to expand its technology across the entire EV request, including motorcars and private vehicles. By 2030, the company aims to equip electric motorcars with its energy recycling system, contributing further to sustainable public transportation.
