When we think of clean energy, we often imagine vast solar farms or giant wind turbines. But in a small, focused lab led by a dream team of scientists and engineers, Hylenr Technologies is working on something radically different, a reactor that could quietly redefine the future of power itself.
The Science Behind the Spark
At the heart of Hylenr Technologies lies a revolutionary Low-Energy Nuclear Reaction (LENR) system. Unlike conventional nuclear technologies, LENR does not rely on radioactive materials or emit harmful radiation. Instead, it uses a palladium-coated nickel mesh to fuse hydrogen atoms, generating more energy (150W) than it consumes (100W) in a compact, emission-free setup.
This breakthrough might sound like science fiction, but it’s very real and it’s happening right here in India.
Meet the Visionaries
Behind Hylenr’s groundbreaking progress is a powerhouse leadership team. CEO Siddharth Durairajan brings over 23 years of engineering design expertise, while Co-Founder Ram Ramaseshan adds decades of top management experience. At the helm of innovation is Dr. Prahlada Ramarao, Padma Shri awardee and a former leader of India’s missile program. His guidance is complemented by Dr. Shree Varaprasad, whose expertise in scientific protocol and analysis ensures Hylenr’s advancements are rooted in rigorous research. Mohit H Samtani, with two decades of leadership across three continents, he drives Hylenr’s operations with clarity and heart.
From Vision to Validation
The journey, the milestones, and the minds that made it happen
More Than a Prototype
Hylenr’s active LENR devices are already demonstrating higher surface temperatures and calculated heat output in lab conditions, a crucial proof of concept. Their work has the potential to reshape energy access, especially in areas where traditional infrastructure is lacking.

A World of Possibilities
The implications of LENR stretch far beyond traditional electricity. Hylenr envisions applications in:
- Space Exploration: Lightweight, long-lasting energy for deep space missions
- Industrial Heating: Clean high-temperature energy for manufacturing
- Distributed Power: Reliable off-grid electricity in remote locations
- Transportation: Compact power sources for EVs, ships, even aircraft
The CIE Factor
As a bootstrapped deep tech startup, Hylenr’s journey hasn’t been easy. Building a cold fusion prototype from scratch takes more than technical brilliance, it requires vision, grit, and the right ecosystem. CIE IIIT Hyderabad provided precisely that. Through access to faculty expertise, advanced lab infrastructure, and industry connections, Hylenr has been able to accelerate its R&D and bring a near-impossible dream closer to reality.
What’s Next
The team is now focused on scaling the LENR unit and expanding applications. Each step forward is a leap not just for Hylenr, but for the global energy landscape. In future, Hylenr won’t just join the clean energy movement, it may very well lead it.
