When we started this innovation journey, we didn’t know exactly where it would lead. Today, we have far exceeded expectations! The result: A revolutionary technology for industrial decarbonization – and the launch of Alnewa our joint venture with oxytec, another Swiss company specialized in plasma technology.
Our new system generates fuel using renewable electricity – without hydrogen. By applying voltage, molecules are split and broken down, creating an energy source that can be fed back into industrial processes to generate heat. For industries that require high-temperature process heat, this innovation offers a viable way to eliminate fossil fuels entirely. A major breakthrough for achieving net-zero emissions in Switzerland and beyond!
Marco Romanelli from KMU und Innovation is thrilled: “One of the main goals of our program is to bring the right partners together. At Elex, this has been a tremendous success. I am proud that this initial spark led to the creation of a new company with enormous potential.”
Our CEO, Markus Eicher, adds: “Elex has always stood for clean air – and with Alnewa, we are taking it one step further by providing clean energy. This technology will change the world!”
