Technology

Local inputs.
Drop-in fuel.

LOA converts hydrogen and CO2 into pipeline-grade synthetic natural gas in a modular generator that deploys wherever the inputs exist. No new fuel infrastructure, no import dependence.

The numbers

The numbers, and how we got them

11.4gCO2e/MJ carbon intensity · calculated

Lifecycle carbon intensity, calculated for fuel made from clean hydrogen and biogenic CO2.

79%Electrolysis efficiency · supplier spec

Share of input electricity captured as hydrogen energy when on-site electrolysis supplies the hydrogen, per the electrolyzer supplier's specification.

80%Methanation efficiency · calculated

Share of the hydrogen's energy carried through the reactor into the finished synthetic natural gas.

63%System efficiency · calculated

End-to-end electricity-to-fuel efficiency across the full chain. Heat integration recovers reaction heat and lifts it to 65%.

How it works

Three steps to secure supply

01

Hydrogen

Sourced locally, clean or dirty. When hydrogen is not available on site, on-site electrolysis produces it.

02

Methanation

Hydrogen and CO2 react inside LOA's modular generator to form synthetic natural gas: the methanation step of a power-to-gas process.

03

Pipeline-grade SNG

The output is synthetic natural gas, a drop-in fuel for existing pipelines, ships, and turbines.

Feedstock flexibility

Runs on what's already there

The system is feedstock-agnostic. It accepts hydrogen and CO2 from any local source, which is what lets one machine serve a port, an RNG site, an industrial plant, or a remote community.

Because every NYX 10K runs on hydrogen and CO2 already available at the host site, LOA's economics rest on locally available feedstock rather than on subsidies. Environmental incentives are upside, not a dependency.

Modularity

From one unit to a fleet

NYX 10K units stack. Capacity grows by adding machines, not redesigning plants.

Each unit installs on existing site infrastructure without waiting in a utility interconnection queue, so once units are shipping, a deployment is measured in months, not years.
