CLEAN POWER, ANYTIME, ANYWHERE
Zero CO2, safe, long-range energy technology
Innovation Since 2002 - Two Decades of Determination.
Since 2002 Research & Development Engineers in the UK-based Metalectrique group of companies have developed a unique approach to Aluminium-Air Technology. This work has resulted in removing the technology’s traditional engineering and cost barriers, thereby allowing its use in multiple applications as a safe, recyclable and affordable alternative to existing power technologies.
Re-Can
Coming Soon: Re-Can by MAL Research & Development
Get ready for Re-Can, a desk toy that uses aluminium-air technology to demonstrate clean, sustainable energy. More than just a fun gadget, Re-Can is part of a global movement promoting recycling and renewable energy. Join the effort to reduce CO₂ emissions and support innovative recycling by turning everyday aluminium cans into a valuable resource for the future of clean power!
High Energy with no CO2 for
Road, Sea and Sky
Fossil fuels are currently essential to for the world to go round. However fossil fuels are also responsible for one of the biggest problems facing mankind today, climate change. Our world is facing a CO2-caused crisis. At Métalectrique we say "The fuel is the problem, so let's change that" because we think the way forward is to change from our current fuel-based technology to a new fuel-based technology - one that is high energy and zero CO2. Our solution is Aluminium-Air.

WHO WE ARE
Métalectrique combines two French words ‘métal’ and ‘électrique’. We coined this term when we were based in France as Métalectrique SAS. It simply describes what we do: generate electricity from aluminium metal.
Now functioning as MAL Research and Development Limited in the United Kingdom, Métalectrique's Aluminium-Air is being developed by a team of engineers and scientists, trying to make an essential goal a reality: to take CO2 off the road and to help save our world from catastrophic climate change.
Our key advantage is our electrolyte. Aluminium-Air has existed before and has been well known for it's high energy density. However, due to common technical problems involving the electrolyte, it has never taken off. We hope to change that with our break through.
