Hylenr secures pre-series A funding of $ 3 million

Pre-series A funding propels Hylenr from breakthrough research to prototyping

Hylenr, a clean energy startup developing patented Low Energy Nuclear Reaction (LENR) systems to deliver scalable, carbon-free industrial heat and power, has closed a strategic Pre-Series A funding round of approximately US$ 3 million to accelerate product commercialization.

The round was led by Valour Capital and Chhattisgarh Investments, both early-stage investors in deep-tech and energy transition technologies, with participation from individual investors Karthik Sundar Iyer and Anant Sarda. PwC advised Hylenr on the transaction, and Samvad Partners served as legal counsel.

The fresh capital will enable Hylner to transition rapidly from pilot projects to market launch, underscoring growing investor confidence in LENR as a commercially viable, fossil-free alternative amid surging global interest in clean energy innovations.

“Hylenr’s LENR technology is disruptive—it represents a leap forward in redefining how the world approaches industrial heat and power generation,” said Karan Goshar, Partner at Valour Capital. “Its scalability, safety profile, and the team’s combined technological and entrepreneurial expertise position HYLENR to be a key player in the global energy transition.”

Siddhartha Durairajan, CMD, Hylnenr, noted: “We believe LENR could be the safest and most energy-efficient thermal and electrical generation technology of the future. Our recent lab results show unprecedented energy gain ratios, and this round gives us the momentum to focus on scaling our product roadmap. Several government bodies and large corporations have already expressed interest.”
