Utility Global, Inc. is a company based in Provo, Utah, founded in 2018, that specializes in developing innovative technologies for a low-carbon future. The company has created eXERO™, a proprietary gas production technology that efficiently converts variable industrial process gases into high-purity hydrogen and a concentrated CO2 stream, without requiring electricity. This system allows for on-site carbon capture from a single location, enhancing cost-effectiveness. In the steelmaking industry, the hydrogen produced can be utilized as a substitute for coke, while the high purity of the CO2 stream simplifies and reduces the costs associated with carbon capture, playing a crucial role in the decarbonization of steel production.

Boston Metal is a metallurgy company focused on reducing the carbon footprint of steel production through its innovative Molten Oxide Electrolysis (MOE) technology. Established in 2012 as a spin-off from MIT, the company has developed an industrial-scale solution that enables the efficient and cost-effective production of a diverse range of metals and alloys. Utilizing an electrolytic cell, Boston Metal processes raw iron ore to create ferroalloys, which are essential for producing various grades of steel. The company's advancements in MOE technology have resulted in a significant scaling of production capabilities, achieving a 1,000-fold increase and generating thousands of kilograms of metal. Headquartered in Woburn, Massachusetts, Boston Metal aims to provide a greener alternative for the metal industry by leveraging its unique process and a variety of feedstocks.
