This latest funding round brings Novoloop’s total capital raised to over $50 million and marks a continuation of the company’s significant momentum—demonstrated by achieving continuous operations at its demonstration plant in India, strategic partnerships with world-leading polyurethane producers in China, and progress toward siting its first commercial facility. With continued backing from existing investor Valo Ventures, the round also welcomed new investment from SHOP Limited, the Family Office of the Bata Shoe Company.

“We are thrilled to partner with Taranis, whose deep commitment in plastic circularity and industrial decarbonization aligns with our ambition to scale Lifecycling™ globally,” said Miranda Wang, CEO and Co-Founder of Novoloop. “This round positions us to meet growing demand from a wider supply chain seeking circular and cost-competitive polyurethanes through the industrial scale-up of our first-of-a-kind technology.”

Taranis brings deep operational and technical expertise in scaling pioneering industrial technologies and solutions that enable the circular transformation of hard-to-abate sectors. The investment affirms Novoloop’s role at the forefront of circular materials innovation and recognizes its unique ability to deliver scalable impact by displacing fossil-based inputs in everyday products.

We are proud to back the team in building a more circular, low-carbon plastics economy.”

EVs could drive down energy bills for all, new modelling shows

Government rebates that boost the number of EVs feeding energy back into the grid would lower power prices for all Australians, according to new modelling by the Electric Vehicle Council. Vehicle-to-grid (V2G) technology, known as bidirectional EV charging, allows energy stored in EVs, which are ‘giant batteries on wheels’, to be sent to the energy grid. The modelling shows that over five years, a $3,000 government rebate towards a V2G charger would create more than $4,500 in downward pressure on electricity bills across Australia. That means for every dollar spent supporting V2G, $1.50 comes back through lower wholesale prices and…

Welcome recognition of Murujuga rock art highlights urgent need to safeguard its values

This change followed intense lobbying by the Australian government to remove the conditions. “The ancient rock art…
