Executive Commentary
“We are seeing significant demand for AirJoule®
from customers for atmospheric water harvesting and industrial
dehumidification applications, which is driving our near-term focus
on these two markets,” said Matt Jore, CEO of AirJoule
Technologies. “During the third quarter, we signed MOUs with TenX
Investment, CIC, and Clairity Technology, and the AirJoule JV is
also collaborating on AirJoule® solutions with multiple Tier 1 food
and beverage manufacturers. We expect AirJoule®’s water production
and energy efficiency to be superior to the current product
offerings, and we are working towards delivering our first
commercial-scale preproduction units in mid-2025.”
Pat Eilers, Executive Chairman of AirJoule
Technologies, added, “Our expanded presence in the Middle East with
the opening of our UAE office will enable us to provide AirJoule®
as an important tool to address water security in the region. We
garnered strong interest in AirJoule® from potential customers
during our live demonstration at the Water, Energy, Technology, and
Environment Exhibition conference in Dubai, which reflects the
market demand for innovative water technologies.”
Progress at Newark, Delaware
Facility
At the AirJoule joint venture with GE Vernova,
the team has made significant progress towards completion of its
operations facility in Newark, Delaware (the “Newark Facility”)
which houses product engineering, the initial manufacturing line
for MOF-coated contactors, and assembly operations for
preproduction AirJoule® units. Much of the product engineering and
design work has already transitioned to the Newark Facility from
the Company’s research facility in Polson, MT, and the Company
expects most of this work to be completed at the Newark Facility
going forward. The initial manufacturing line and assembly
operations are expected to be operational in mid-2025.
