Brillouin uses precisely controlled Q-Pulse electrical stimulation to drive hydrogen nuclei into nickel lattice sites, triggering electron capture events that convert protons to neutrons, releasing energy without harmful radiation.

Leonardo Corporation's E-Cat NGU (New Generation Unit) is described by the company as operating in fully self-sustaining mode, requiring no external energy input after startup. The company quotes a stated COP of 27:1; this and other performance figures remain subject to independent confirmation. Leonardo has publicly reported that E-Cat NGU commercial deliveries began in January 2026, focused on megawatt-scale industrial installations, with pre-orders for 1 MW units reportedly active. These statements reflect Leonardo Corporation's public position and have not been independently verified or peer-reviewed. Forward-looking commercialization timelines, performance, and contractual details are uncertain and subject to risk.

Clean Planet, partnered with Tohoku University's Prof. Yasuhiro Iwamura, uses nano-structured nickel composites where quantum confinement of hydrogen in nano-pores is reported to enhance reaction rates. In April 2025, Clean Planet was publicly awarded a ¥1 billion grant under the Tokyo Metropolitan Government's Zero Emission Tokyo program. In January 2026, Clean Planet publicly stated that it secured approximately ¥500 million in strategic equity investment, characterizing the milestone as a transition from R&D to full-scale commercialization. The company has also disclosed a pilot industrial-boiler partnership with Miura Co., Ltd. (Japan's largest industrial-heater manufacturer). These statements reflect the company's public position and have not been independently audited. Forward-looking commercialization timelines are uncertain and subject to risk.

Eng8 Energy operates in the LENR field and describes their specific approach as catalyzed fusion. Using a proprietary catalyst in a water-based system, they aim to lower the energy barrier required for hydrogen fusion to occur at low temperatures, without the extreme conditions of conventional hot fusion. They presented results at the European LENR conference in Bergamo. In a March 2026 press release, Eng8 publicly stated it is advancing its EnergiCell platform from laboratory validation (TRL 4) to industrial prototyping (TRL 7), with first commercial thermal energy deliveries targeted for 2026. These statements reflect the company's public position and independent verification of their results is ongoing. Forward-looking commercialization timelines are uncertain and subject to risk.

Prometheus is an Italian LENR startup founded in 2021 and incubated at Kilometro Rosso in Bergamo. Their UM microreactor uses saltwater and an electrical pulse to stimulate LENR phenomena, producing heat, pressure, and hydrogen without fossil fuels or radioactive materials. In October 2025, Austrian engineering testing firm AVL List GmbH, widely known for powertrain and industrial testing, conducted independent testing of their results for repeatability, reproducibility, and scalability. Italy's national energy agency ENEA signed a partnership agreement following the testing.

SAFIRE (Stellar Atmosphere For Illumination Research & Energy) by Aureon Energy replicates stellar plasma physics at lab scale. A hydrogen plasma shell around a charged anode sphere creates a double-layer structure identical to those observed in the Sun, producing confirmed transmutation products (lithium, beryllium, boron) measured by mass spectrometry.
