Past deals in Electrical Equipment

Renaissance Fusion

Seed Round in 2023
Developer of superconductors designed to make the stellarator simple, fusion electricity cheap and MRI a routine medical check-up. The company's high-temperature superconductors (HTS) for use in stellarator plasma devices and medical imaging, put fusion electricity in the grid, enabling clients to make the stellarator simple and fusion electricity cheap.

Zap Energy

Series C in 2022
Zap Energy, Inc. is a Seattle-based company incorporated in 2017 that specializes in the design and manufacture of sheared-flow stabilized Z-Pinch fusion reactors for power plants. The company's innovative approach stabilizes plasma using sheared flows instead of traditional magnetic fields, which allows for the creation of a magnetic field through electric current. This method effectively confines and compresses the plasma, resulting in higher pressure and density. Zap Energy aims to provide a low-carbon, cost-effective, and flexible energy solution through its compact and scalable fusion reactor technology, positioning itself as a leader in the pursuit of commercially viable fusion energy.

Linear Labs

Series A in 2022
Linear Labs, Inc. manufactures electric motors for electric vehicle, micro-mobility, robotics, wind turbine and heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) industries. The company offers its product under the name Hunstable Electric Turbine, which uses multiple rotors for various conditions in motion. The product has its application for autonomous robots, forklifts, light electric motorcycles, golf carts, e-bikes, e-scooters, and industrial applications. The company was incorporated in 2012 and is based in Fort Worth, Texas.
