Next Generation Light Energy Harvesting OPV Delivers 30 Percent Performance Increase for Battery-Free IoT

CES Las Vegas, January 4, 2026, Dracula Technologies, a pioneer in enabling battery-free IoT through energy harvesting from ambient indoor light, today announced that the company will present LAYER^® V2.0 at CES 2026, the next generation of its organic photovoltaic (OPV) technology, delivering a 30 percent increase in overall performance compared to the previous generation.

Designed to address the growing demand for more efficient, compact, and sustainable power sources for connected devices, LAYER^® V2.0 enables higher power output for the same surface area, or equivalent performance from a smaller module footprint. This new generation gives OEMs greater design freedom while reducing size, cost, and reliance on disposable batteries. By delivering greater efficiency, flexibility, adaptability, and aesthetics, OPV modules bring durable and sustainable energy generation to a whole new range of IoT and smart sensor applications across industrial and consumer markets.

“With LAYER^® V2.0, we are taking a major step forward in making light energy harvesting a practical and scalable power source for real-world IoT applications,” said Sadok Ben Dkhil, Chief Technology Officer at Dracula Technologies. “This new generation removes key limitations around size, performance, and cost, enabling more autonomous, durable, and sustainable connected devices without compromising reliability or design. With improved performance and new aesthetic options, OEMs now have greater freedom to integrate energy harvesting seamlessly into their products.”
