Concentrating sunlight on demand.
Heliogen’s modular solution is designed to replace the use of fossil fuels in demanding operations. By combining AI-controlled concentrating solar thermal technology with long-duration thermal energy storage, Heliogen can provide dispatchable renewable energy for heat and energy-intensive operations.
Aligning with Your Energy Transition Strategy
Decarbonize Your Operations
With over 50% of global greenhouse gas emissions coming from industry and transportation, transitioning these sectors to renewable energy is an immediate imperative. Heliogen starts with solutions for cost competitive carbon-free process steam and power generation. By concentrating solar thermal energy and storing it for long durations, we give businesses an efficient, dispatchable alternative.
Cost Efficiency
Renewable capacity factor, with option to hybridize for full availability increases reliability with deeper emissions cuts than other renewable alternatives.
Heliogen aims to make clean energy more economical than fossil fuels. By addressing intermittency, we have designed a solution that can deliver reliable, dispatchable renewable energy from sunlight. dispatchable energy from sunlight.
Clean, Renewable Steam
Million metric tons of greenhouse gas emitted in the US to generate industrial steam.
Our technology cost effectively supplies carbon-free industrial steam
up to 550 °C.
SUSTAINABILITY
Kilograms/year of fuel-cell, vehicle-grade hydrogen through the use of a third-party electrolyzer.
Each Heliogen module can produce enough green hydrogen fuel to supply a fleet of 18 heavy-duty trucks covering approximately 5600 miles (9000 km) per day.

Advanced Concentrating Solar Thermal Energy
Our patented, breakthrough technology uses AI, cameras, and advanced computer vision software to precisely align an array of mirrors that reflect and concentrate sunlight on a receiver tower. During the daytime, the receiver generates heat which is transferred to thermal energy storage and supplies continuous clean steam or power. Heliogen’s modular solar thermal energy plant can be located anywhere with sufficient sunlight, producing dispatchable and cost competitive electric power.
