While electrification is an effective solution for lighter-duty, shorter-range applications, it becomes increasingly challenging for heavy-duty, long-range and highly mobile sectors, where the weight, size, cost and charging infrastructure required for batteries can become prohibitive. Batteries are an excellent way to deliver power, but for many applications they are not the most effective way to store energy.

Over the past 80 years, engine technology has advanced through incremental improvements rather than fundamental innovation. Inspired by the work of Nicolas Léonard Sadi Carnot, our founding team saw an opportunity to rethink the internal combustion engine and develop a technology capable of accelerating the transition to Net Zero.
