Arc Boats builds hybrid electric vessels: tugs, ferries, and electric motors for autonomous defense boats (ensuring stealth). Its integrated electric systems combine the propulsion system, energy storage, and software into a single, coherent platform. The electric motor delivers high instantaneous torque and flexible speed control for precise control in port, reducing downtime and lowering operating costs. They ensure efficient charging and more environmentally friendly operation for busy, repetitive schedules. Without fuel systems or complex transmissions, the electric propulsion system minimizes maintenance and downtime.

Mantis Space is energy provider for space missions and LEO satellites. It creates a constellation of spacecraft that orbit Earth, capturing solar energy and transmitting it to other spacecraft in orbit using optical systems with modern laser technology. These systems wirelessly transmit power directly to the satellites' existing solar panels. Mantis' power infrastructure eliminates the typical power shortage experienced by satellites when they enter darkness approximately every 95 minutes (a period known in the space industry as an eclipse) and extends their operational life.

Tandem PV produces tandem photovoltaic systems that use perovskite, which captures wavelengths of light that conventional silicon solar panels inefficiently convert into electricity. Their technology delivers significantly higher power output with the same panel area and similar cost per watt. Tandem PV panels have an enhanced durability suitable for long-term use, as demonstrated by accelerated testing showing degradation of less than 1% per year. The company is also building a robust patent portfolio in core perovskite layer technologies, system design and durability metrics to protect and expand these advantages as production scales.

Oxford PV develops perovskite tandem cell technology - solar cells that consist of two components: one perovskite and the other silicon. Traditional silicon solar cells absorb light in the red part of the spectrum, while perovskite absorbs light in the blue part. Thus, a tandem cell captures more sunlight than a single cell can, and therefore generates more energy. All this without changing the size (area) of the solar cell. Oxford PV's proprietary perovskite technology is designed to work with standard solar panels. The company has its own manufacturing facility and sets new world records for perovskite cells efficiency almost every year.

Hydro X manufactures hydrogen storage and transportation systems. Its technology uses a patented catalyst and formate-bicarbonate cycle to store hydrogen in a safe and energy-efficient water-based carrier. The process involves chemically charging hydrogen with potassium bicarbonate (common "baking soda") and converting it into an aqueous solution containing water and potassium formate (another commercially available material commonly used to de-icing aircraft wings). This process is fully reversible, allowing hydrogen to be stored and released repeatedly with extremely high conversion rates. Hydro X supplies a range of small-scale hydrogen charging and discharging units of varying capacity and scale for data centers, industrial plants and residential buildings.

Immaterial develops metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) that exhibit ultra-high hydrogen storage efficiency. MOFs are made of porous coordination polymers - carefully selected components, when mixed together, self-assemble into a precise lattice structure with metal ions at each corner and organic linkers at each edge. The company can design MOFs with highly specific pore sizes, surface chemistry and wide range of other physical properties, depending on needs. They use molecular modeling methods to select the most effective material and solve the customer's "problem" based on a combination of system performance metrics and other relevant properties not covered by computational screening, such as chemical stability, strength and ease of synthesis.
