1
Neology
Funding: $3M
Neology is developing a system that converts liquid ammonia into hydrogen and then into electricity using fuelcells, with water being the primary byproduct. The process involves an "ammonia cracker"- a device that splits ammonia into hydrogen and nitrogen. The hydrogen is then fed into a fuelcells to generate electricity, while nitrogen, a harmless component of air, is released. The technology is designed for applications where battery-electric solutions may be ineffective, particularly for heavier vehicles, long-term operation, or in low-temperature environments. The resulting hydrogen can also be used in a variety of other ways.

Energy Vault
Funding: $1.1B
Energy Vault SA implements large-scale projects building energy storage systems including gravity-based, battery-based and green hydrogen-based, managed by its proprietary energy management system and integration platform. It designs, builds and operates both short-term and long-term energy storages for utilities, independent power producers and large industrial enterprises. Its proprietary X-VAULT platform ensures cost-effectiveness by optimizing site layout, energy density and other factors, while the Circuit VaultOS system monitors and manages the ESS.
3

Funding: $43.5M
Transmutex develops technology designed to reduce the stockpile of nuclear waste-based energy.
4
Pexapark
Funding: €39.1M
Pexapark is developing pricing analytics platform for renewable energy that connects clean energy producers and integrates data analytics, peer-to-peer learning, third-party marketplaces and expert advice on power purchase agreements and operations and maintenance in a single location. Its analytics engine leverages peer-to-peer data to deliver deeper, more accurate, and more realistic results.
5
Insolight
Funding: $25.9M
Insolight is an energy company that develops and manufactures solar panels. The technology, called planar optical micro-tracking, allows to concentrate sunlight on tiny solar cells, without any tilt.
