C+UP creates ready-to-use fuels directly from CO₂ and renewable electricity — no hydrogen, no multi-step synthesis, no new infrastructure. Our single-step AEM electrolyzer platform produces finished molecules at the point of need, enabling immediate decarbonization for industries facing rising carbon-intensity pressure. Our first product is carbon-negative propane, an energy-dense, easily stored, easily transported molecule with a global $150B market and an unmatched existing infrastructure footprint. This allows industrial emitters, energy providers, and chemical companies to deploy clean fuels without waiting for new pipelines, new storage systems, or hydrogen-scale investments. Who we serve: • Bio-ethanol & fermentation producers seeking on-site CO₂ utilization • Industrial emitters where CO₂ is abundant but clean energy storage is not • Propane distributors seeking low-CI fuels and new revenue streams • Petrochemical and SAF producers needing low-carbon C₃ feedstock • Renewable developers needing long-duration, transportable energy storage Why customers choose C+UP: • Finished fuels, not intermediates • Drop-in compatibility with global LPG infrastructure • Carbon-negative when paired with biogenic CO₂ • Lower complexity than H₂-based pathways • Modular and scalable from kilowatts to megawatts Our vision: A world where CO₂ is not waste — it is the most valuable feedstock for fuels, chemicals, and energy storage.
