Odqa Renewable Energy Technologies, an Oxford University spin-off, has developed the Converger, a groundbreaking solar thermal platform capable of replacing fossil fuels for industrial heat generation. Our technology can continuously deliver heat up to 1000 °C addressing the temperature needs of industrial processes. This technology offers a more efficient and cost-effective solution compared to all existing methods (at costs competitive with gas, other fossil fuels, and electricity in sunny regions). Additionally, our hybrid model is built to integrate seamlessly with your existing energy sources (whether that’s gas or electrified furnaces). By combining Odqa’s solar thermal energy with these conventional energy sources, we can ensure a reliable, 24/7 energy supply. This approach provides flexibility, stability, and energy cost savings, helping you decarbonize your operations gradually while maintaining operational continuity.  What sets Odqa apart is: Odqa´s science officer is Peter Ireland Head of Oxford Thermofluids Institute. The strong backing we receive from renowned investors and partners, including Oxford Science Enterprises (https://www.oxfordscienceenterprises.com/)) and Oxford ThermoFluid's Institute (https://oti.eng.ox.ac.uk/)..) Their commitment to our mission reinforces the technological soundness and long-term potential of our solutions. These partnerships allow us to innovate and scale quickly while providing a solid foundation for our clients' energy transitions.
