Green Usbcell Batteries Win Gold at Cebit iF Product Design Awards

As clear evidence of the importance of Green technology at CeBIT this year - a greener AA Battery has beaten thousands of global companies to a top GOLD award at this years prestigious global iF Product Design Awards.

The USBCELL AA battery, invented by UK based Moixa Energy, and designed by British Design duo - Simon Daniel & Chris Wright, took one of 50 prestigious iF Gold Product Design Awards, sometimes referred to as a "Design Oscar" at the awards ceremony at CeBIT yesterday for the best global designs of the year against a competition of 2771 entries from 35 countries.

Philips won a Gold for their energy Saving lamps and Apple took 8 awards.

"This demonstrates the importance of Sustainable Design", said Simon Daniel - CEO & Founder of Moixa Energy; "that our AA USBCELL Battery from a small new British company, can beat the worlds best electronics and consumer brands at CeBIT", adding "Today's Portable and wireless devices eat batteries - over 15 billion batteries are now made/thrown away each year - equivalent to a column of batteries to the moon and back, wasting resources, C02 and landfill.

The world needs better battery technology like our USBCELL Rechargeable batteries that can be recharged anywhere from a USB port on a desktop, laptop or games station - making it easier to re-use anywhere, saving hassle, money and waste."

It also helps with the EU Battery directive in helping to reduce landfill.
