Why now

Why Certain Energy needs this now

Every point below was checked on 27 October 2026. Nothing here is a projection. The rebuild in this preview answers each one.

01

£10m and a new name

RFC Power closed a £10m Series A led by the British Business Bank, with Centrica and Ceres Power, and rebranded as Certain Energy. Utilities, developers and investors are meeting the new name for the first time.

02

The rebrand is half finished

The homepage still describes "RFC Power's globally patented hydrogen manganese system", and the contact page lists info@rfcpower.com. Visitors see two company names on one site.

03

Three markets, no paths

Behind the meter, co location with renewables and off grid are described in paragraphs, with no route for each buyer to start a project conversation.

The technology

Long duration storage, built to scale

Underpinned by research published from Imperial College labs over the last eight years.

01

High voltage cells

High single cell voltage and high power density from an optimised cell architecture.

02

Low cost chemistry

Hydrogen and manganese, chosen for cost and for an enduring 20 plus year design life.

03

Bigger tanks

More hours of storage means more electrolyte, not a new giga factory.

Markets

Where certain energy matters

Behind the meter

Commercial and industrial sites cutting electricity costs and preventing blackouts.

Co located with renewables

Relieve network constraints, prevent curtailment and avoid grid upgrades.

Off grid

Microgrids that replace diesel generators for rural communities and businesses.

The offer for Certain Energy

The three lower bands, or the large side.

A new name and a new round deserve one clear story. This licence finishes the rebrand, gives each market a way in, and keeps improving it every month.

  • B2B SEO: one new search page and four content pieces in the base
  • AEO / GEO: schema, FAQ, llms.txt, 90 day plan, AI-citation report
  • This demo is the concept. Paying gets the better site plus those three, on one invoice
  • Need more? Raise web, SEO or GEO in the dashboard. It adds to the next invoice
