The cooling industry is under pressure from all directions: emissions regulations, soaring demand and the volatile cost of energy. Central to this puzzle is gas – whose inherent inefficiency turns these challenges into a vicious spiral: the warming world needs more cooling, but that cooling itself warms the world.
This important and urgent challenge drove over a decade of research at Cambridge University’s world-leading Materials Science department. This resulted in ground-breaking solid, simple but super powerful refrigerants that deliver a step-change in efficiency and entirely eliminate fugitive emissions.
This is at the core of how Barocal’s platform solves the cooling paradox. By replacing gas systems the huge gains in efficiency mean even as demand grows, direct and indirect emissions reduce. Thus we slow the warming that is straining the world’s cooling capacity and energy production.
Crucially – unlike other technologies that have tried to replace refrigerant gasses – Barocal’s breakthrough solid is inexpensive, plentiful and safe. This has allowed us to build a modular, simple and scalable cooling system around it that is reliable and can run for millions of cycles. All of which helps solve the critical pressures that the industry, the world’s energy and the planet’s climate is under.

At its heart, a simple transformative solid molecule with none of the drawbacks of gas.
At its heart, a simple transformative solid molecule with none of the drawbacks of gas.
Inexpensive, safe, plentiful. Forming a powder of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen. Able to fit the core of any system.
Its superpower – unique plastic crystals create colossal thermic effects in reaction to pressure change.
Heating and cooling with unheard of power and efficiency. Endlessly and without theoretical limit.
