MIMiC Systems

Solid-state heating and cooling systems at a building scale

MIMiC Systems is a company in manufacturing energy based in Brooklyn Ny, founded in 2016.

Profile

Heating and cooling make up the majority of energy consumption in buildings, representing over 40% of energy-related greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Originating from extensive multidisciplinary research at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, MIMiC Systems is pioneering a technology aimed at reducing the emissions from refrigerants in traditional vapor-compression systems, while enhancing thermal comfort without incurring energy penalties. MIMiC employs advanced solid-state heat pumps, known as thermoelectric devices, combined with innovations in power electronics and controls. This approach not only boosts system efficiency but also fully eliminates the need for environmentally harmful refrigerants. The technology is particularly advantageous for retrofitting residential buildings, streamlining the installation process to save both time and labor costs. Moreover, by significantly reducing the number of moving parts, MIMiC’s solution extends the operational lifetime of heating and cooling systems, marking a significant step forward in reducing the environmental impact of building climate control.

Within the manufacturing energy space, the company focuses on its core offering rather than a broad product line.

The business is associated with Brooklyn Ny.

It is recorded at the SOSV portfolio company stage.

Its team size is recorded as 2-10 employees.
