Noble Thermodynamic Systems

Zero Emission, Dispatchable and Affordable Power

Our Technology

Zero-Carbon

Outperforms efficiency benchmark power generation technologies while capturing 100% of the carbon dioxide generated, effectively rendering a negative cost of carbon abatement.

Dispatchable

Builds on and enhances the features of the reciprocating engine to provide the fastest ramping capabilities to the grid, making our technology the perfect companion to intermittent renewables.

Affordable

Provides low cost of ownership thanks to its ultra efficient performance and its conventional, mass-produced engine components. This yields a wide span of revenue generating hours.

Retrofittable

Retrofittable onto existing reciprocating engine plants, it enables the transformation of over a terawatt of existing polluting dispatchable assets into clean and efficient ones.

Why we care

Power Generation
Power generation portfolios in the United States and all around the globe are integrating a growing share of renewable energy sources as grid operators work to overcome reliability and flexibility challenges. As a result, increasing demand for cost-competitive dispatchable power has emerged with the added constraints of aligning with climate change and air pollution reduction goals.
Industrial Sector
The ongoing transformation of the electric power market and the need to manage their environmental impact, has revived the interest in self-generation. This is driven mainly by the need to hedge increasing electricity price volatility and by the financial opportunity that distributed assets represent. In an increasingly modernized power grid consumers of all sizes have been enabled to integrate diverse generation sources to manage their electricity use and participate in markets.
Marine Transportation
In a push to eliminate the impact of the marine sector on air quality, new MARPOL regulation is pressing the sector into installing new retrofittable exhaust aftertreatment technology and using higher quality fuels. These measures impact both the capital and operational expenses of the sector, making it more sensitive to propulsion systems’ performance characteristics regarding fuel consumption and emission ratings.

How Does it Work

We make a closed-loop reciprocating engine with no exhaust! It recycles a noble gas working fluid, increasing the power generation efficiency while at the same time capturing all air pollutants, in particular, carbon dioxide. This technology represents a feasible and cost-effective pathway to eliminating the air-quality and climate change impact of the energy sector, and subsequently that of the economy.
