About Us
Lava develops a breakthrough thermodynamic platform that converts heat to electricity, and electricity back to heating and cooling, with unprecedented efficiency. At the core of Lava’s technology is isothermal thermodynamic cycle, delivering more than 30% efficiency gains over conventional steam turbines and heat pumps.
The platform is modular and highly versatile, enabling applications across geothermal power generation, industrial waste heat recovery, data center cooling, district heating and cooling, and long-duration thermal energy storage (Carnot batteries). By keeping the working gas hot for longer during expansion, Lava extracts significantly more useful energy from the same heat source while reducing system complexity, capital cost, and operational losses.
Designed for industrial-scale deployment, Lava’s systems offer fast payback periods and can integrate into existing infrastructure, supporting utilities, data centers, heavy industry, and energy-intensive facilities in cutting emissions while improving energy resilience and economics
