FueltricBox is a compact, automated device that converts restaurant waste cooking oil into usable electricity — on-site, with 30% energy cost savings.
Every day, hundreds of thousands of restaurants discard millions of liters of used cooking oil — a massive untapped energy source, disposed of harmfully.
Small and large food businesses pay enormous energy bills while sitting on a waste stream that could power their operations.
Waste oil is often illegally dumped or disposed of incorrectly, causing severe soil and water contamination globally.
Existing solutions require expensive collection, transportation, and large-scale processing — inaccessible to individual businesses.
500,000+ fast-food restaurants produce over 2 million liters of waste oil every single day — with zero energy benefit.
FueltricBox sits inside any restaurant or food business. It takes waste oil in and sends clean electricity out — fully automated, no specialist required.
Restaurant staff add used cooking oil directly to the FueltricBox unit — no pre-treatment or transport needed.
The system initiates transesterification with optimized catalysts, converting oil into high-efficiency biodiesel automatically.
The resulting biodiesel fuels an onboard generator with higher yield than conventional processing methods.
Generated electricity feeds directly into the business — reducing bills by up to 30% from day one.
