A circular aluminium energy platform for industrial heat, resilient electricity, hydrogen production, and clean infrastructure beyond grid limitations.
iQ LOOP's Role in the Energy Transition
Delivering clean energy where the grid can't reach
The world is electrifying more rapidly than the grid can accommodate. Heavy industry, remote operations, and clean mobility all require energy that can be securely stored, quickly transported, and released on demand — independent of grid access or other critical infrastructure.
iQ LOOP is developing a next-generation energy storage system that employs aluminium as a robust, abundant, and recyclable medium for sustainable energy transmission. The platform converts aluminium to store energy in a solid form, releasing hydrogen, heat, and electricity when needed, rather than retaining hydrogen as a high-pressure gas or cryogenic liquid. It represents a more direct and secure conduit for the transfer of renewable energy that surpasses the limitations of the grid and constitutes a transformative innovation of this decade.
This closed-loop, carbon-neutral approach is what makes iQ LOOP practical rather than theoretical: the same aluminium can be charged, discharged, and recharged indefinitely, giving industrial sites, remote operations, and entire communities a way to build their own reserve of clean energy — deployed on demand, wherever the grid can't reach.
What Sets Our Technology Apart
The potential of hydrogen has consistently been hindered by a singular issue: its storage and delivery are challenging, expensive, and frequently perilous. iQ LOOP adopts an alternative methodology by storing sustainable energy in a stable solid rather than a volatile gas, facilitating transportation and deployment with the ease of a conventional material, so enabling energy release precisely where it is required.
Climate-Focused Energy Investment
iQ LOOP is developing a circular aluminium energy platform built for the clean energy transition - turning abundant aluminium into a safe, stable medium for storing and moving clean electricity.
Established Energy Ecosystem
Our technology connects into the wider clean energy landscape — renewables, industrial heat, and clean mobility — providing the storage layer that links generation to where energy is actually needed.
Global Footprint
With R&D across Europe and Canada and a growing network of research, industrial, and pilot partners, iQ LOOP is building the relationships needed to move from validated technology to first deployments.
