Energy Production
Scoodeca is a modular, off-grid power-unit replacement for small transport — motor scooters, tuk-tuks, boats, and light utility vehicles — in Southeast Asia, India, Africa, and other low-infrastructure regions.
Technology brief
Scoodeca is a modular, off-grid power-unit replacement for small transport — motor scooters, tuk-tuks, boats, and light utility vehicles — in Southeast Asia, India, Africa, and other low-infrastructure regions.
The challenge
Primary use cases: urban/rural scooters and tuk-tuks; motorized longboats and fishing skiffs; tourist and delivery fleets; island and inland-lake communities without electricity.
Industries and users: mobility fleets, marine operators, off-grid communities.
Scale: 50–250 cc two/three-wheelers; outboard motors up to 7.5 hp.
Concrete scenarios: river taxi operators in Southeast Asian cities eliminating gasoline fumes; island-hopping boat operators in the Philippines replacing 2-stroke engines; tuk-tuk fleets in India running without charging downtime; scooter fleets in Vietnam cutting noise and emissions; freshwater lake fishing communities in East Africa operating without fuel access.
ARBOK solution
Scoodeca is a modular, off-grid power-unit replacement for small transport — motor scooters, tuk-tuks, boats, and light utility vehicles — in Southeast Asia, India, Africa, and other low-infrastructure regions. Instead of retrofitting, it offers drop-in DEKA energy cores (non-lithium dry cells) that need no grid, recharging, or fuel. A single swappable unit gives 4–12 hours of clean, silent operation and is exchanged like an LPG cylinder in ~30 seconds, with no user maintenance.
A DEKA-based dry-cell energy core (internal clean chemical cartridge, non-lithium, solid-state) replaces the combustion engine or battery, delivering power directly. Units are swapped like batteries/LPG cylinders (~30 seconds); spent cores are recharged/refurbished off-vehicle. No grid, no combustion.
Limitations: per-core runtime (4–12 h); swap/logistics network needed; cartridge supply.
Market and application
Hundreds of millions of two/three-wheelers and small boats in Southeast Asia, India, and Africa run on petrol with poor grid access. A fuel-free, swappable, non-lithium core fits this huge clean-mobility and off-grid market.
Lower TCO than petrol via modular swapping; no fuel logistics; revenue from core sales/leasing + swap-network service. (Per-market economics by vehicle mix and swap density.)

Steps: fit core interface to vehicle → distribute cores + swap stations → operate (swap depleted cores). No user maintenance; ~30 s swaps.
Built on DEKA cores; swap-station network; fits existing scooter/tuk-tuk/boat platforms; fleet operations.

Limitations: per-core runtime (4–12 h); swap/logistics network needed; cartridge supply.
Runtime: 4–12 hours/unit (vehicle/terrain dependent). Weight: 8–18 kg. Swap time: ~30 seconds. Lifecycle: >1 000 swap cycles; core fully recyclable.
Compatible: 50–250 cc two/three-wheelers, outboards up to 7.5 hp. Water- and vibration-resistant (marine/off-road); silent, no exhaust; works in extreme humidity/temperature.
Drop-in DEKA energy core (solid-state cartridge); vehicle mount/interface; swap mechanism; recyclable core. No grid connection or onboard charger.
Technical: drop-in (no retrofit); ~30 s swap; non-lithium (no fire risk, no mining dependency); marine/off-road rugged.
Economic: lower total cost of ownership via modular swapping; no petrol logistics.
Environmental: zero use emissions; no oil/smoke/combustion waste; recyclable core.
Strategic: clean mobility for fuel-scarce, grid-poor regions.
Built on DEKA cores; swap-station network; fits existing scooter/tuk-tuk/boat platforms; fleet operations.
Steps: fit core interface to vehicle → distribute cores + swap stations → operate (swap depleted cores). No user maintenance; ~30 s swaps.
TRL 4 (confirmed by Michael). Early prototypes; depends on DEKA core maturity. Remaining: field pilots in target Southeast Asian markets and swap-network validation.
