The Department of Energy Advanced Research Projects Agency (ARPA-E) awarded a Cooperative Agreement totaling $498,611 to Pascal Technologies Inc. on August 31, 2026, under the Advanced Research Projects Agency - Energy program (CFDA 81.135). Pascal Technologies will develop ultra-stable, all-organic, polymer-based solid refrigerants for high-performance barocaloric heat pump systems. The project focuses on creating refrigerants with exceptional stability, processability, high thermal conductivity, and high energy density—properties critical to commercializing heat pump devices. The solid refrigerant approach offers a pathway to more energy-efficient, sustainable, and cost-effective heating and cooling appliances compared to conventional vapor-compression technologies. Performance occurs in Cambridge, Massachusetts over a period extending from the award date through August 30, 2028. The funding de-risks a transformative technology currently too early for private-sector investment.
