Clean Energy Technologies Advances First Waste-to-Energy Deployment in Alberta Under LOI with Hoppy Power, Targeting Scalable Rollout

Clean Energy Technologies, Inc.(Nasdaq: CETY) (“CETY” or the “Company”) , a clean energy technology and solutions provider focused on converting waste and heat into power and fuels, today announced the execution of a non-binding Letter of Intent (“LOI”) with Hoppy Power Ltd. (“Hoppy Power”) to evaluate and advance the deployment of CETY’s proprietary High Temperature Ablative Pyrolysis (HTAP™) technology for waste-to-energy applications.

This initiative represents a meaningful step toward near-term deployment and initial commercialization, with defined milestones in 2026 expected to include engineering validation, permitting progression, and advancement toward definitive agreements. The Company anticipates providing further updates as these milestones are achieved, supporting visibility into execution and potential follow-on deployment opportunities.

As part of this collaboration, Westlock, Alberta has been identified as the initial site under evaluation for a potential first deployment, representing a key step toward commercialization of CETY’s modular waste-to-energy platform. Deployment of CETY’s solution is expected to support the local community by addressing waste management challenges while generating clean, distributed energy. The site is being evaluated based on favorable access to feedstock, existing infrastructure, and a supportive development environment. The parties intend to advance technical validation, engineering design, and project development activities targeting execution beginning in late 2026, subject to successful evaluation, permitting, and execution of definitive agreements.

The proposed modular system is expected to generate up to 2 MW of power per unit, with the ability to process up to 12,000 tons per year of biomass and waste-derived feedstock, supporting distributed deployment across industrial and municipal environments. The platform is designed to convert a wide range of waste streams, including municipal solid waste, agricultural residues, and forestry byproducts, into high-quality and clean syngas for power generation.

The project is intended to serve as an initial demonstration of a scalable deployment model, with each modular unit designed to operate within approximately 2 MW distributed generation. This configuration is aligned with distributed generation frameworks to enable more efficient interconnection and streamlined development pathways. The system is designed to support capital-efficient deployment at the project level, positioning it as a repeatable solution across multiple markets and establishing the foundation for a broader pipeline of repeatable deployments across multiple sites, with the potential to expand into additional locations as part of a scalable rollout strategy.

From a commercial standpoint, the platform is expected to support multiple revenue streams, including waste processing (tipping fees), on-site power generation, biochar production and potential offtake or energy services agreements. These combined revenue streams, together with modular deployment and feedstock flexibility, are designed to support competitive cost-of-energy outcomes relative to conventional biomass and distributed generation alternatives, positioning the platform within commercially viable ranges observed in comparable projects.

Under the LOI, CETY will conduct technical and commercial evaluations, including feedstock analysis, system integration studies, and preliminary engineering design. The Company also expects to support pilot deployment activities at the Westlock site, including provision and operation of its HTAP equipment during the initial validation phase, with performance-based milestones tied to operational uptime and readiness. Key near-term milestones include completion of engineering validation, confirmation of feedstock supply, permitting progression, and progress toward definitive agreements.

The advancement of this project is subject to a number of factors, including technical validation, feedstock availability, securing required permits and regulatory approvals, access to capital, and execution of definitive agreements between the parties. In addition, scaling from pilot deployment to broader commercial rollout will require continued demonstration of system performance, economic viability, and market demand.

Kam Mahdi, Chief Executive Officer of CETY, said:

“This collaboration represents a meaningful step toward commercialization of our HTAPTM technology through an initial field deployment. Advancing toward a first deployment reflects our ability to answer growing demand for scalable, distributed waste-to-energy solutions. We believe this model has the potential to be replicated as we continue to convert waste streams into valuable energy infrastructure.”

The parties intend to work together to complete a comprehensive business case, pursue regulatory approvals, and explore potential funding pathways, including Canadian federal and municipal programs. Both companies share a common objective of advancing toward full project development and commercialization, subject to successful evaluation, permitting, capital availability, and execution of definitive agreements.

CETY and Hoppy Power will engage with industry participants at the upcoming International Biomass Conference & Expo in Nashville, Tennessee, from March 31 through April 2, 2026. This annual event serves as a key platform for stakeholders across the biomass and waste-to-energy sectors, including developers, utilities, industrial operators, and technology providers focused on advancing renewable energy solutions.

During the Biomass Conference, CETY will highlight its HTAP™ technology and integrated waste-to-energy and heat-to-power solutions. Representatives from CETY and Hoppy Power, along with Metis Power Inc., the system integration and combustor manufacturing partner, will be available to discuss system capabilities, integration opportunities, and applications across industrial, municipal, and biomass markets. The companies will also explore strategic partnerships and advance discussions around potential project deployments.
