The world‘s power grid is pretty broken. Every year, outages cost half a trillion dollars and over 100,000 human lives. Meanwhile, over 12,000 clean energy projects totalling 2.6 TW – more than twice the current installed capacity of the entire US power grid – are stuck waiting 4-10 years just to connect to the grid.
Crucible Energy changes the game. Instead of patching up single points of failure in a brittle system, we‘re building self-healing superconducting mesh networks with integrated storage. It‘s like creating a teleporter that moves power and data anywhere in the world, instantly, with zero loss.
Crucible Energy delivers 100x more power, 50x more reliably and 10x faster – at the same or lower cost than you pay now.
We save time. We save money. And – in the moments that really matter – we save lives.
Antiquated
Global power grids are based on 100 year-old technology
Unreliable
Worldwide outages cost up to $500B & over 100,000 human lives yearly
Dirty
Peaker plants account for roughly 50% of the grid‘s carbon emissions
Limited Reach
Transmission distances typically limited to ~500km (~311mi) due to line losses
Superconductivity means electricity flows with zero resistance. No energy is lost – regardless of distance. Superconducting cables carry tens or even hundreds of times more power than traditional copper or aluminum conductors of the same size.
High-Temperature Superconductors (HTS) achieve superconductivity when cooled with liquid nitrogen (77K). After 25 years and billions in R&D, a robust HTS industry has emerged – with products proven in production. Massive investments are scaling production capacity to achieve economies of scale. As a result, HTS prices are now becoming increasingly competitive.
No single point of failure
Mesh network architecture with integrated Hybrid Energy Storage System (HESS) provides redundancy and fault tolerance
Hardened against extreme environments
Built to withstand lightning, hurricanes, wildfires, ice storms, bullets, EMPs, and GICs
Ready to go
No innovations or breakthroughs needed beyond our existing IP
1% of the footprint
Undergrounded HTS cables carry 15-150x more power, with up to 99% smaller footprint & no thermal backfill needed
Renovigo Chemicals has signed a $1.2 Billion Letter of Intent with Crucible Energy for up to 150 MW Power Purchase Agreement, delivering 100% renewable energy with resilience guarantees at $0.06/kWh over 15 years (estimated $53-80 Million yearly).
