Protecting what matters
Iron Fuel Technology
Iron Fuel
Step 1
Iron fuel (Fe) is stored and transported to our boiler locations, acting as a safe, solid energy carrier. The initial batch is sourced from the existing iron-powder market.
Iron Fuel Boiler
Step 2
In the boiler, iron fuel combusts with ambient air to create a flame of up to 2,000 °C. This heat produces steam, hot water, or hot air, with zero direct CO₂ emissions and ultra-low NOx emissions.
Iron Oxide
Step 3
The only by-product of combustion is iron oxide (rust). It is collected directly from the boiler chamber, safely stored, and transported to the production plant for regeneration.
Iron Fuel Production
Step 4
At the production plant, iron oxide is “recharged” into iron fuel using low-carbon hydrogen. Ready for the next cycle.
Iron Fuel development began at RIFT — spun out of Eindhoven University of Technology. First trailed in Helmond, where an Iron Fuel Boiler powered a district heating network under real-world regulatory conditions. This milestone proved the technology’s practical viability and marks the next step on our Technology Roadmap.
