Heliex Power specializes in the development and deployment of advanced steam turbine technology, primarily centered around its flagship product, the Twin Screw Turbine. This innovative turbine converts low- and medium-pressure steam into usable mechanical power, effectively turning otherwise wasted energy into significant cost savings for industries reliant on steam generation. The core functionality of the Twin Screw Turbine allows it to operate efficiently in various applications, including energy recovery from steam systems in manufacturing plants, food processing facilities, and other industrial settings. Heliex Power serves a diverse client base that spans across geographical markets such as Europe, North America, and parts of Asia, targeting industries looking to enhance energy efficiency and reduce operational costs.

The company's solutions cater to end users, including energy managers and sustainability officers, who are focused on optimizing resource consumption and achieving sustainability goals. The revenue structure of Heliex Power is built around direct business-to-business (B2B) transactions, where clients engage the company for its turbine solutions, maintenance services, and potential consulting on energy optimization strategies. Typically, transactions involve a one-time purchase of the Twin Screw Turbine, followed by ongoing maintenance agreements that ensure optimal performance over time. The pricing plans are structured to reflect the value of energy savings achieved by clients, which aligns the financial interests of both parties.

As the company focuses on large-scale industrial clients, the transactions are significant, with clients benefiting from the substantial reduction in energy costs that Heliex Power’s technology enables. Overall, the company’s financial model not only emphasizes the sale of its proprietary turbine systems but also the creation of long-term partnerships through comprehensive support and service offerings. Heliex Power is focused on expanding its product offerings and geographic reach. The company is preparing to launch new advancements in its steam turbine technology, with a release timeline expected in the next two years.

Additionally, Heliex Power is targeting expansion into new markets, specifically Asia and North America, within the next 18 months. The GBP 4. 20 million raised in March 2016 from BP Ventures will be utilized to support the development of these new products and facilitate its market expansion initiatives.
