Their product, ‘Power Bank: EXIECO PB’ beat 1,000 participants from 48 countries. The idea was conceived when Ahmad Asyhraf faced an electricity problem during the floods.
The environmentally-friendly device was created with three main components to generate electricity: coal, aluminum, and brine (salt water).
