Problem
Current power systems for military, aviation, and recreational vehicles rely on fuels and batteries that are heavy, carbon-intensive, and/or pose safety risks due to flammability. Existing hydrogen storage solutions often require lithium in their production, contributing to resource scarcity and environmental concerns.
Solution
FuelX Innovation manufactures solid-state hydrogen storage products and power systems using Alane (AlH3) fuel, offering a high energy density alternative to traditional fuels and batteries. Their Alane fuel cell power systems reduce carbon emissions and provide a lighter, non-flammable fuel source for various applications. FuelX employs a novel, lithium-free production method for Alane, addressing the sustainability challenges associated with conventional Alane production. The company is developing Alane-based power solutions for soldier power generators, aviation, e-scooters, and jet skis, aiming to improve performance, extend range, and enhance safety.
Target Audience
FuelX serves military and defense organizations seeking lightweight power solutions, aviation companies aiming for extended flight range and reduced emissions, and manufacturers of recreational vehicles and e-scooters looking for high-energy, sustainable power sources.
