Zeno is developing next-generation radioisotope power systems that generate carbon-free, resilient power for decades.

Base Power is a contemporary energy company that focuses on backup battery systems for homes and electricity plans. They provide home battery systems that can supply up to three days of power during power outages, automatically powering the entire household without manual assistance. This service aims to offer dependable electricity at a lower price compared to conventional options. Base Power also offers electricity plans with clear pricing starting at 9¢ per kilowatt-hour (kWh), in addition to delivery fees and an annual membership fee. These plans enable customers to anticipate their energy expenses.

Valar Atomics is a company focused on scaling nuclear energy beyond the traditional electricity grid.

Antora Energy delivers zero-carbon industrial heat and power to heavy industries that are more reliable than fossil fuels. Antora’s thermal energy storage soaks up excess solar and wind electricity and uses it to heat blocks of carbon so they glow like inside a toaster.

Commonwealth Fusion is a research company that develops energy through an inexhaustible power plant. It uses rare-earth barium copper oxide superconductor technology to develop energy. They combine proven physics backed by decades of government-funded fusion research with a revolutionary superconducting magnet technology to accelerate the path to commercial fusion energy Commonwealth Fusion Systems (CFS) is on track to bring fusion energy technology to the market. CFS was spun out of MIT and is collaborating with MIT’s Plasma Science and Fusion Center to leverage decades of research combined with the innovation and speed of the private sector. Supported by the investors in breakthrough energy technologies, the CFS team is uniquely positioned to deliver the fastest path to commercial fusion energy. Commonwealth Fusion began operation in 2017, with its headquarters in Cambridge in Massachusetts.

Antares Industries is an advanced nuclear energy startup that designs and manufactures adaptable and scalable reactors, particularly focused on strategic energy applications like space-based nuclear power. The company aims to ensure critical infrastructure resilience through portable microreactors suitable for remote and austere environments.

WATT Fuel Cell Corporation is a developer and manufacturer of Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (SOFC) components and systems that can operate on readily available hydrocarbon fuels such as natural gas, propane, JP-8, and diesel. WATT’s fuel cell technology is a quiet, light, efficient, affordable, and environmentally responsible energy solution to a range of power markets. The company's products are based on a common expandable module, a building block that enables WATT to address multiple markets with minimal additional development cost.
