Energy security for the 30% of industry that electrification can’t reach.

The Challenges

Volatile oil and gas costs, fragile global supply chains
Tightening global emissions requirements
Limited alternatives for reliable industrial heat

 The new reality: Heavy industry needs energy-dense, cost-stable, and sustainable fuel alternatives.

We partner with industrial energy customers to deliver cost-stable, energy-dense fuels using existing materials and infrastructure.

OUR SOLUTION

Aluminum Fuels

Aluminum is the world’s first truly rechargeable fuel: abundant, energy-dense, and endlessly reusable. Building on breakthrough work pioneered at NASA and MIT, Found Energy has developed a proprietary treatment process that disrupts aluminum’s native oxide layer, enabling it to react rapidly and completely with water through a mechanism called fractal exfoliation. This highly exothermic reaction releases aluminum’s stored energy as both high-grade heat and hydrogen gas, creating a powerful, transportable energy carrier. The output of Found’s reactors is ideal for industrial cogeneration, helping address the roughly 30% of industrial energy demand that remains difficult or uneconomic to electrify.

Catalyzed Aluminum-Water Reactors (CAWR)

Found Energy develops catalyzed aluminum-water cogeneration systems that integrate directly into existing industrial infrastructure to deliver reliable, behind-the-meter heat and power. By converting aluminum fuel and water into dispatchable thermal energy and hydrogen at the point of use, our reactors provide a resilient alternative to fossil combustion without requiring a full overhaul of legacy facilities. The result is a modular energy platform that helps industrial operators cut emissions, strengthen energy security, and decarbonize hard-to-abate processes with minimal disruption.
