Company
Overview
Founded 2019
Year Established
The company was established in 2019 with the goal of rethinking electricity distribution.
5–10x More Power
Transmission Capacity
Their high-temperature superconducting lines can carry 5 to 10 times more power than traditional cables at the same voltage.
$75M Series B
Funding Raised
Raised a $75 million Series B in January 2025, backed by notable investors including Munich Re Ventures and Microsoft’s Climate Innovation Fund.
2023 Outdoor Demo
Transmission Validation
Conducted the first outdoor demonstration of an overhead superconducting line to validate long-distance, high-current transmission capabilities.
Developed high-temperature superconducting transmission lines using passive liquid nitrogen cooling for efficiency and compact design.
Engineers solutions for data centers, renewable energy developers, and grid operators to overcome transmission bottlenecks and simplify interconnection.
Its breakthrough evaporative cooling requires no compressors, enabling scalable overhead deployment rather than buried systems.
