About Time To ACT plc
Time To ACT plc is an engineering-led group focused on technology for the energy
transition supply chain. It currently has two principal operating businesses: Diffusion
Alloys and GreenSpur. As the parent company of the Group, Time To ACT provides
strategic and operational support to the operating companies and capital to enable their
growth.
About Diffusion Alloys
Diffusion Alloys supplies diffusion coatings. A diffusion coating is an intermetallic layer
that protects metal components from degradation at high temperatures and in highly
corrosive environments, such as those found in hydrogen and nuclear energy
generation.
Diffusion Alloys has joined forces with Johnson Matthey plc, the market leaders in
synthesis gas ("syngas") with a significant pipeline of Blue Hydrogen projects, to scale-up
production and address the increasing demand for low carbon hydrogen used to reduce
global carbon emissions.
In addition to working for numerous historic and existing customers, the Directors
believe that Diffusion Alloys is the only credible diffusion coater in the world for blue
hydrogen components, has already been coating in volume for a leading European
vendor in the green hydrogen space and is also in pre-commercial discussions with new
cleantech equipment manufacturers.
Diffusion Alloys has two distinct areas of focus:
·
Coating Technology: Selling technical excellence in coating capability
supported by the concept of "flexible capacity" - the ability to provide
customers with capacity wherever they need it, whether for the coating of
Large Parts or Small Parts.
· Coating Services: Plant-led coatings business centred on its Middlesbrough
site.
About GreenSpur
GreenSpur is an intellectual property creator and generator designer that has developed
a credible solution for renewable energy applications to the Rare Earth magnet problem.
Magnets constructed using Rare Earth Elements (REEs) are fundamental components in
electrical generators and electric vehicle motors which are critical to delivering the clean
energy transition. However, there are substantial supply chain constraints and risks in
the sourcing of REEs that are needed for these magnets.
GreenSpur's generator design eliminates the need for Rare Earth magnets and copper
coils without any loss in electrical performance.
