Aerleum lands $6M seed round for e-fuels and chemicals

In France, Aerleum recently announced the successful close of its $6M seed round, led by 360 Capital and HTGF, with participation from Norrsken, Bpifrance, and Marble. The funding will accelerate the industrialization of Aerleum’s breakthrough technology, which transforms atmospheric CO₂ and low-carbon hydrogen into synthetic fuels (e-fuels) and chemicals, propelling hard-to-abate sectors toward a carbon-neutral future.

Aerleum’s game-changing solution captures and converts CO₂ in a single reactor, using proprietary bifunctional materials and precision heating. The company’s technology eliminates some of the most energy-intensive steps of the value chain, enabling cost-competitive, large-scale production of e-fuels and chemicals, while drastically cutting greenhouse gas emissions. Aerleum is setting the fastest timeline in the market to achieve price parity with fossil fuels, offering industries—such as maritime, aviation, and chemicals—a viable path to decarbonization without compromising on cost or scalability.
