About

Helios is a private headquartered in Israel specializing in Other.

Helios Project Ltd. is an Israeli green steel technology company developing the Helios Cycle, a novel sodium-based iron production process. The technology emerged from research on extracting oxygen from lunar minerals for space applications. The closed-loop reduction process emits only oxygen and requires significantly less thermal energy than conventional ironmaking methods, achieving up to 50% energy reduction. The company has partnered with BlueScope Steel (Australia) for pilot trials beginning in 2026, with commercial units expected by 2028. Helios was selected for DARPA's LunA-10 lunar infrastructure program and joined the World Steel Association in 2023 as an affiliated member.
