The problem

The aluminium industry is one of the world’s largest energy consumers, responsible for 2% of global emissions. Heavy industries struggle to access affordable, compact, and carbon-free power solutions, making decarbonisation a significant challenge.

The solution

Found Energy transforms aluminium waste into clean industrial heat and hydrogen, offering a sustainable alternative to fossil fuels. Their exothermic reaction requires no electricity, reducing dependence on traditional power sources. The process also produces negative-carbon alumina tri-hydrate, creating a closed-loop solution that enhances aluminium circularity for producers.
