RONAN, Mont., March 25, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- AirJoule Technologies Corporation (NASDAQ: AIRJ) (“AirJoule Technologies” or the “Company”), the developer of the transformational AirJoule® system for separating pure water from air, today announced its fourth quarter and full year results. The Company also announced that the AirJoule® system can use low-grade waste heat from industrial processes to improve energy efficiency and produce pure distilled water for less than 160 watt-hours of energy consumption per liter (“Wh/L”). This marks a step change in water harvesting efficiency, allowing humanity to cost-effectively access water stored in the most reliable freshwater aquifer – the Earth’s atmosphere. Fourth Quarter 2024 AirJoule® Utilizes Low-Grade Waste Heat to Produce Pure Distilled Water After extensive testing at the Company’s facility in Newark, DE, AirJoule® demonstrated the ability to produce pure distilled water from air with an energy requirement of less than 160 Wh/L of water by utilizing low-grade waste heat (with test conditions of 80°F and 60% relative humidity). Compared to existing technologies, AirJoule® is up to 4x more efficient at separating water from air than refrigerant-based systems (400-700 Wh/L) and up to 8x more efficient than desiccant-based systems (more than 1,300 Wh/L). Waste heat is the world’s largest untapped energy source. Approximately 70% of the energy produced on the planet is lost as waste heat at power plants, and up to 50% of energy inputs to industrial operations are lost as waste heat. Most of this waste heat is low-grade (under 100°C) and previously has not been economical to recapture for reuse or electricity generation. By tapping into the significant low-grade waste heat available at nearly all industrial operations globally, including data centers, AirJoule® can generate pure distilled water at attractive costs. AirJoule® is unlocking two vast resources to improve energy efficiency and water sustainability – low-grade waste heat and water in the atmosphere. The Company and the AirJoule JV (defined below) are in advanced discussions with multiple data center operators, project developers, and industrial facilities about potential proof of concept deployments where AirJoule® demonstration units would be installed and field tested to validate their operational capabilities. If successful, these initiatives will lay the foundation for large-scale water generation projects that harness waste heat to produce pure distilled water on-site at competitive costs while also driving greater energy efficiency. Data centers, which are vital to our increasingly digital world, require substantial amounts of power and water. When deployed to data centers, AirJoule® can transform the vast low-grade waste heat from these facilities, which would otherwise be released into the atmosphere, into a valuable asset through the production of distilled water for evaporative cooling and for other beneficial purposes. Full Year 2024 Key Milestones Formed a 50/50 joint venture with GE Vernova to commercialize the AirJoule® technology (“AirJoule JV”); at the end of 2024, the AirJoule JV team included 24 full-time employees who were primarily focused on engineering and product development activitiesEntered a binding joint commercialization term sheet with Carrier Global Corporation for AirJoule® applications in the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning marketBuilt out a 35,000 square foot facility in Newark, DE to support sorbent-coating, manufacturing, assembly, and testing operations for AirJoule® units at the AirJoule JVOpened the Company’s first international office in the United Arab Emirates to spearhead business development and growth initiatives in the Gulf Cooperation Council region Balance Sheet and Liquidity Completed a $50 million private investment in public equity (“PIPE”) financing in March 2024, led by investments from GE Vernova, Carrier, and Rice Investment Group, among other third partiesRaised an additional $12 million through a PIPE financing from primarily existing investors in June 2024Ended the year with $28 million of cash and cash equivalents with sufficient liquidity to support the Company’s operations through expected commercial sales in 2026 Executive Commentary “We are pleased with the significant progress made in 2024,” said Matt Jore, CEO of AirJoule Technologies. “We achieved several key milestones that position us well for the extensive commercial opportunities we see ahead at the intersection of energy efficiency and water security. The significance of AirJoule® separating pure water from air at less than 160 watt-hours per liter cannot be overstated. Once commercialized, this unprecedented level of energetics can enable transformational solutions including waste heat to water, distributed water generation, and more energy-efficient dehumidification and air conditioning systems.” Mr. Jore continued, “We are incredibly energized to have completed our first year as a publicly traded company. We are excited for what’s to come in 2025 and look forward to updating our stakeholders on our progress throughout the year.” Committed Equity Facility On March 25, 2025, the Company entered into a common stock purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with B. Riley Principal Capital II, LLC (“B. Riley”), providing the Company with the right, but not the obligation, to sell up to $30 million of newly issued shares to B. Riley over a period of 36 months, subject to certain conditions and limitations. The Purchase Agreement gives the Company financial flexibility to opportunistically raise incremental capital in support of future growth and development activities.
