Thermal Energy Announces $1.9 million Turn-key Heat Recovery Project for a Global Materials Company

Project designed to help customer achieve ambitious carbon emission reduction targets with a compelling payback of under two years

Ottawa, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - May 6, 2024) - Thermal Energy International Inc. (TSXV: TMG) (OTCQB: TMGEF) ("Thermal Energy" or the "Company"), a provider of innovative energy efficiency and carbon emission reduction solutions to major corporations around the world, has announced a $1.9 million carbon reduction and energy efficiency solution for a global materials company. All figures are shown in CAD.

As a market leader, this customer accepts its role in forging the industry's path to a low-carbon economy, and has engaged with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) to validate their ambitious scope 1 and scope 2 greenhouse gas emissions targets. This $1.9 million Turn-key project is expected to save the customer over $980,000 annually on its energy bill, reduce co2 emissions by 977 tonnes per year and improve pollution prevention and control.

"This is an interesting relationship for two reasons. Firstly, the customer became aware of our technology following an acquisition and chose to replicate it collaboratively with our expert engineers. Secondly, the customer is engaged with STBi net zero standardization, meaning total transparency and accountability, so it speaks volumes that this customer trusts our technology to help reach its ambitious emissions reduction targets," said William Crossland, Thermal Energy CEO.

This order marks the third heat recovery and carbon emission reduction solution Thermal Energy has delivered for this customer across three of its European sites. The earlier two projects preceded this customer's acquisition of the sites and were smaller custom equipment orders. Upon discovering the effectiveness of Thermal Energy's technology at these two sites the customer has expanded its relationship with Thermal Energy to include full turn-key projects across further sites.

It wasn't only the innovative technology that impressed this customer, but also Thermal Energy's comprehensive engineering capabilities and in-depth understanding of drying applications and the customer's processes. A collaborative approach between Thermal Energy and the customer resulted in a progressive application of the FLU-ACE® heat recovery system to recover heat from the spray dryer stack, rather than the typical dryer exhaust, that could be repeatable across several industries.

The project is expected to be completed and revenue earned within nine months.

This press release contains forward-looking statements relating to, and amongst other things, based on management's expectations, estimates, and projections, the anticipated effectiveness of the Company's products and services and the timing of revenues to be received by the Company.

Information as to the amount of heat recovered, energy savings, and payback period associated with Thermal Energy International's products are based on the Company's own testing and average customer results to date. Statements relating to the order-intake, expected installation and revenue recognition for projects, statements about the anticipated effectiveness and lifespan of the Company's products, statements about the expected environmental effects and cost savings associated with the Company's products, and statements about the Company's ability to cross-sell its products and sell to more sites are forward-looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve several risks, uncertainties, and assumptions. Orders received in a fiscal year may not become revenue for the Company within such fiscal year. Many factors, some of which are outside of the Company's control, could cause events and results to differ materially from those stated. Fulfilment of orders, installation of products, and activation of products could all be delayed for several reasons, some of which are outside of the Company's control, which would result in anticipated revenues from such projects being delayed or in the most serious cases eliminated.
