Zero Carbon Capital

Porpoise Power is a company that specializes in developing tidal energy systems. Their innovative technology, inspired by the swimming mechanics of dolphins and whales, uses oscillating hydrofoils to harness the power of tidal streams. This unique approach allows the company to generate sustainable electricity at a relatively low cost and minimal environmental impact, even at medium tidal speeds.

IONATE develops smart transformer technology. Its Hybrid Intelligent Transformer (HIT) replaces traditional transformers, integrating real-time control of voltages and power distribution across grids, benefiting power generation facilities, industrial sites, data centers, and grid operators.

Spark e-Fuels is a climate tech company that develops carbon-neutral aviation fuels by converting renewable energy, air, and water into sustainable aviation fuel. It uses integrated, modular production systems designed to scale and to connect with the lowest-cost renewable electricity, employing proprietary, load-flexible e-fuels processes to reduce production costs. This approach targets aviation's emissions by enabling widespread availability of scalable, environmentally friendly SAF for the industry.

Exergy3, a spinout from the University of Edinburgh, specializes in energy storage solutions. It has developed a unique temperature energy storage technology that captures and stores excess green energy from the grid, converting it into ultra-high temperature heat. This heat is then used to displace fossil fuels in various industrial processes, thereby reducing carbon dioxide emissions. The company's solution is more cost-effective than alternatives like hydrogen carbon capture and storage, making it suitable for smaller or more remote processes.
