TWD Industries AG
TWD Industries AG is seeking equity capital to fund the initial implementation of its lossless wireless
technology, or WET, a revolutionary technological accomplishment that was first envisioned by Nikola
Tesla over a century ago and that, until now, has remained unfulfilled.
We will use these funds to prove that we can transfer electrical power wirelessly (that is, without the need
for cables or other physical medium), safely and securely and through physical obstacles, to a fixed power
receptor placed at a significant distance from the power source. To our knowledge, to date, no one has
even come close to successfully carrying out such an experiment, as the competing technologies currently
being pursued all have very significant shortcomings.
After the initial implementation of our disruptive technology, we intend to raise additional funds to scale
up the application of WET with the ultimate goal of applying it on an industrial scale, by wirelessly linking
energy plants to all their remote consumers.
As WET is implemented on an industrial scale, we believe its applications are potentially limitless, from
powering stationary receptors of energy, such as appliances, homes and buildings, to powering mobile
energy receptors, such as cars, trains, hand-held devices, airplanes, ships, submarines or satellites.
It is our belief that WET will ultimately render the antiquated and inefficient energy grid we all continue
to rely on since 1882 (the year in which Thomas Edison opened the first power plant in New York City)
obsolete, thereby drastically reducing energy waste and the environmental pollution associated with it,
greatly accelerating the electrification of developing countries, creating significant wealth for providers of
electrical power and consumers alike, and, ultimately, improving living conditions across the globe.
With appropriate funding, TWD Industries AG will be able to ensure that WET is delivered in a safe,
secure, clean and sustainable way, such that it will not expose human and other living things to the health
risks typically associated with wireless transmission of energy, and will not be vulnerable to theft, hacking
or other unwanted human intervention.
We seek CHF 15,000,000 in funding, which will be placed in escrow for the protection of our investors
and released gradually over time only upon the achievement of agreed milestones that will unequivocally
prove the viability and virtues of our WET.

ELECTRICITY TRANSMISSION
The Basics
Electricity
Electricity is the physical flow of electrons (subatomic particles, generally negative in charge, that orbit
the nucleus of an atom) in a stream called current through a conducting medium, such as a metal, acid or
similar conductor. Current is a count of the number of electrons flowing through such medium.
There are two types of electricity: alternating current (or AC), the type of electricity commonly used in
homes and businesses throughout the world; and direct current (or DC). While DC flows in one direction
through a wire, AC alternates its direction from positive to negative and vice versa in a back-and-forth
motion. The AC electric generator (or alternator) determines the frequency (i.e., the rate per second at
which AC electricity alternates its direction) in Hertz. That rate is 50 or 60 times per second, depending on
the electric system of the country or continent: for example, 50 Hertz in Europe and 60 Hertz in North
America. What is special about AC electricity is that the voltage can be readily changed (higher or lower,
by the use of a transformer), thus making it more suitable for long-distance transmission than DC
electricity. (One notable exception to this, is the State Grid Corporation of China, which has deployed
UHV 1.1 million Volt DC to transmit five times more power than conventional lines over longer distances,
at lower costs.) AC also can employ devices such as capacitors and inductors in electronic circuitry, which
can affect the way AC passes through a circuit, allowing for a wide range of applications. For example, a
combination of a capacitor, inductor and resistor is used as a tuner in radios and televisions. Without those
devices, tuning to different stations would be very difficult. The below depicts the sine waveform AC
electricity typically follows in alternating between positive (+) and negative (−), as measured with a
voltmeter or multimeter.
DC electricity is found in almost all electronics. AC and DC, however, do not mix very well, and AC will
need to be transformed to DC before most electronics can be plugged into a wall outlet.
Electricity Generation
There are three stages of electric power supply: generation, transmission and distribution.
Most commonly, electric current is generated through electro-magnetic conversion, by moving an electric
conductor, such as a wire, inside a magnetic field. For example, in a generator connected to a turbine, the
turbine provides the motion required to move the conductor in the generator. The energy for motion can
come from various technologies, such as wind turbines, hydropower, or the steam created from heat
produced in fossil fuel (natural gas or coal) or nuclear fission combustion. Electricity can also be
generated through chemical reaction (for example, in a battery or fuel cell) or solid-state conversion, using
the structure and properties of a (specially constructed) solid consisting of different molecules packed
closely together that create an electric current when stimulated, such as a solar photovoltaic (PV) cell. The
first power plant, owned by Thomas Edison, opened in New York City in 1882.
Electricity is the same, regardless of how it is produced. The rate at which electricity is produced is
referred to as a watt. The quantity of energy used over a certain period of time is referred to as kilowatt-
hour (or kWh). A watt is the product of a volt and an ampere (or amp), where a volt designates the size of
the force that sends the electrons through a circuit, and an amp the unit used to measure electric current.
Voltage can be thought of as the pressure of water flowing through pipes, whereas amps as a unit of
measure indicating the volume of water moving past a certain point. That is also a function of resistance:
one amp is the amount of current produced by a force of one volt acting through the resistance of one
ohm. An ohm is a way of measuring resistance. For example, a certain length of copper wire, which is a
good conductor, has a resistance of .0000017 ohms, while the same length of Sulfur, which is a very poor
conductor, has a resistance of 200,000,000,000,000,000 ohms.
While water dams can be used to delay electricity generation until needed (by releasing water into
turbines) and battery capacity is improving at a fast pace, storing large quantities of electricity is still not
economically viable with current technologies, therefore when electricity is produced it must be used
immediately. For this reason, the grid must be managed continuously to balance electricity supply with
demand. The below depicts where electricity is generated from in the United States.
Depending on the source of electricity, electricity production can have significant environmental and
health impacts. Fossil fuel resources, like coal and natural gas, although carbon intensive, are the most
convenient sources used to generate power (e.g., thermal power) to meet consumer demand at any given
time and place as burning fossil fuels can be operated anywhere as they can easily be transported and
stored. Thermal generation sources, however, produce air pollutants that can cause significant harm to
human health and contribute to global greenhouse gas emissions. Renewable sources of electricity, like
solar and wind, do not produce direct carbon emissions (except to manufacture, transport and replace
parts), but generate electricity only on an intermittent or variable basis, and consumers must be nearby to
limit transmission losses so there are limitations also to deployment.
Electricity Transmission and Distribution
Most electricity is generated by power plants at 13,200 to 24,000 volts. When electricity comes out of a
generating station, the transmission substation located there (step-up transmission substation) steps up the
voltages to the range of 138,000-765,000 volts. After electrical power is generated, it is transmitted over
distances using transmission lines. Transmission lines are constructed between transmission substations
and may be supported overhead on towers or they may be underground. They are operated at high
voltages. They send out large amounts of electrical power and extend over considerable distances.
