Nandina REM’s technology transforms composites. The company reduces costs and allows for fast, automated production, unlocking markets beyond traditional applications and helping companies embed greater resilience in their supply chains. As the first to produce aerospace-grade carbon fiber from traceable, secured circular sources, Nandina REM delivers carbon fiber thermoplastics in one-quarter the time of standard supply chains and shortens material innovation cycles by a factor of ten. The company operates at the intersection of systems engineering, product design, material science, and digital supply chain twinning. Singapore’s strong defense ties with the U.S. further position Nandina REM to disrupt single-source dependencies in U.S. defense supply chains and support the onshoring of critical material production.

Noon Energy delivers ultra-low-cost, multi-day energy storage. The system uses solid oxide electrochemical cells and stores energy as abundant, flexible industrial gases. With three times the energy density of lithium-ion alternatives, Noon requires a smaller footprint than traditional storage technologies. The company delivers firm, reliable, and clean power. Costs drop, emissions fall, and resilience strengthens across businesses, remote grids, fast-growing industries such as data centers, and utilities transitioning beyond fossil fuels.

Proof Energy is commercializing next-generation metallic solid oxide fuel cell (M‑SOFC) technology developed by Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. The breakthrough M‑SOFC systems use low-cost, existing fuels, including ethanol, methanol, ammonia, and natural gas, to accelerate decarbonization of commercial transportation. These fuels act as hydrogen carriers with higher energy density than high-pressure hydrogen, enabling faster adoption at significantly lower cost compared to building megawatt fast-charging infrastructure or hydrogen production and delivery networks. To address immediate customer requirements, Proof Energy introduced its patented ClearTherm^™ Range Defender^™ zero-emissions catalytic oxidation heater. This solution helps maintain winter driving range for battery electric vehicles (BEVs). ClearTherm^™ debuted at the Advanced Clean Transportation (ACT) Expo in Las Vegas in 2024 and is now in commercial deployment with leading BEV truck and bus original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and fleet operators.

Tidal Metals introduces technology that economically mines the largest source of magnesium on Earth—two billion megatons dissolved in seawater. The company’s electrified, sustainable, and scalable process represents the future of seawater desalination, extracting three high-value products: freshwater, magnesium, and chlorine. Renewable electricity transforms magnesium into an abundant, carbon-neutral structural metal essential for modern infrastructure.
