Investor fit Statement

Clean Energy and Water Technologies Pty Ltd (CEWT) ABN 61 691 320 028 | ACN 691 320 028 www.clean-energy-water-tech.com Investor Fit Statement Carbon Recycling Technology (CRT) Infrastructure-grade capital for infrastructure-grade decarbonisation Purpose Carbon Recycling Technology (CRT) is a first-of-a-kind, infrastructure-scale energy system designed to deliver continuous, zero-emission power by recycling carbon molecules using renewable inputs. CRT is not a startup product; it is a regulated energy asset. What CRT Is CRT integrates power generation, fuel synthesis, and carbon recycling into a single closed-loop system. Hydrogen functions as a chemical reductant, carbon functions as a recyclable carrier, and Renewable Synthetic Methane Gas (RSMG) is the fuel. The system is governed by thermodynamics, mass balance, and industrial safety standards. Capital Characteristics CRT requires large, staged capital deployment, long-duration asset ownership, government and quasi-government co-funding, and rigorous technical, environmental, and regulatory diligence. CRT is therefore suited to infrastructure equity and strategic industrial capital, not venture-style fundraising. Who CRT Is For CRT is suitable for investors who have experience in regulated energy or fuel infrastructure, are comfortable with construction and operational risk, value capital preservation alongside decarbonisation outcomes, and understand that deep decarbonisation requires molecules as well as electrons. Who CRT Is Not For CRT is not suitable for short-horizon venture capital, hype-driven or crowd-based fundraising, or investors seeking rapid exits or narrative-led valuation. Funding Philosophy CRT follows a disciplined funding sequence: public and institutional validation, strategic infrastructure equity, and finally project finance dominance. This approach prioritises system integrity, investor protection, and long-term value creation. Hydrogen reduces. Carbon carries. Methane fuels. © Clean Energy and Water Technologies Pty Ltd (CEWT)

Water-the ultimate fuel.

Water: The Ultimate Fuel In the current energy transition, debates often revolve around electrons versus molecules, hydrogen versus hydrocarbons, or renewables versus fossil fuels. These framings miss a deeper, system-level truth: the ultimate enabler of clean energy systems is neither hydrogen nor carbon, but water. Hydrogen is not a primary fuel. It is an energy carrier derived almost entirely from water. Electrolysis does not create energy; it reorganises water using external energy inputs. The true source material is water itself. Carbon, likewise, is not the enemy. It is a carrier — a stable, information-rich atom that enables energy storage, transport, and dispatchability at scale. When carbon is recycled rather than extracted, it becomes a system asset rather than a liability. Renewable Synthetic Methane Gas (RSMG) emerges as the practical renewable fuel because it unites these roles: hydrogen supplies the energy, carbon supplies the structure, and water closes the loop. Combustion returns the system back to water and carbon dioxide, ready for reuse. Seen through this lens, decarbonisation is not about eliminating carbon, but about using water and renewable energy to clean up a misplaced carbon cycle. Water becomes both the beginning and the end — the origin of hydrogen and the final resting state after energy delivery. Water is the true fuel. Hydrogen carries the energy. Carbon carries the structure. RSMG makes the system work. This is not an invention against nature, but a correction back to it — restoring balance by allowing water to do what it has always done: enable life, energy flow, and renewal.

How Carbon Recycling technology (CRT) can reshape the oil and Gas landscape?

How Carbon Recycling Technology (CRT) Can Reshape the Oil & Gas Landscape For decades, the global energy debate has been framed around a single question: How do we get rid of fossil fuels? That framing may be the real problem. Oil and gas are not dominant merely because of lobbying or inertia. They dominate because they solved three hard problems better than any alternative: • energy density, • transportability, • and dispatchability at scale. The world didn’t choose fossil fuels because they emit CO₂. It chose them because they work. The overlooked question Instead of asking how to eliminate oil and gas, a more productive question is: Why aren’t we replacing fossil fuels with renewable fuels that behave the same way? This is where Carbon Recycling Technology (CRT) fundamentally changes the conversation. The mistake: treating carbon as the enemy Most decarbonisation strategies treat carbon itself as the problem. But carbon is not the issue — fossil carbon extraction is. Carbon is one of nature’s most effective energy carriers: • dense, • stable, • storable, • and compatible with global infrastructure. What’s unsustainable is introducing new fossil carbon into the system. CRT corrects this error by separating two roles: • Hydrogen is the fuel (energy source) • Carbon is the carrier (logistics medium) Renewable Synthetic Methane Gas (RSMG): a drop-in replacement CRT uses renewable electricity to produce hydrogen, then combines that hydrogen with captured CO₂ to produce renewable synthetic methane gas (RSMG). From a system perspective, RSMG: • behaves like LNG, • uses existing pipelines, storage, turbines, and engines, • provides dispatchable, long-duration energy, • but introduces no new carbon. When RSMG is used and the CO₂ is captured and recycled again, carbon becomes a closed-loop carrier, not an emission. Why the world isn’t focusing on this (yet) There are three main reasons: 1. Narrative inertia Energy discussions are dominated by binaries: renewables versus fossil fuels, electrons versus molecules. CRT doesn’t fit neatly into either camp. 2. Component thinking instead of system thinking Many solutions optimise one element — generation, storage, or efficiency — but ignore how energy must be carried across time, geography, and demand variability. 3. Misplaced focus on eliminating infrastructure Replacing global gas infrastructure is vastly harder than feeding it with a renewable fuel. CRT works with the system the world already has. What changes when CRT scales If CRT and RSMG are adopted at scale, the oil and gas sector doesn’t disappear — it transforms. • Gas infrastructure becomes a renewable energy network • LNG terminals become renewable fuel hubs • Gas turbines become zero-emission baseload assets • Carbon stops being waste and becomes a circulating carrier This is not incremental decarbonisation. It is a structural transition. The deeper shift The energy transition will not be won by removing complexity. It will be won by aligning with physical reality. Batteries buffer hours. Hydrogen upgrades energy. Carbon carries energy at scale. CRT brings these together into a coherent system — one that replaces fossil fuels without breaking the world that depends on them. The future of energy is not carbon-free. It is fossil-free. And that distinction matters.

Cabon recycling Technology as a system efficiency

Carbon Recycling Technology (CRT) as Systemic Efficiency Why Decarbonisation Fails Without System Boundaries — and How CRT Fixes It Most net-zero strategies fail for one simple reason: they confuse the system with its surroundings. The United Nations (UNECE, 2025) now frames decarbonisation not as a technology choice, but as a system-design problem — calling it systemic efficiency: reduce demand first, substitute clean energy second, and only then deal with residual emissions. This framing exposes the flaw in many popular pathways: • Electrification without 24/7 clean supply • CCS that shifts carbon elsewhere • Hydrogen without a closed carbon logic Carbon Recycling Technology (CRT) is built precisely around this missing boundary. CRT is not an offset. It is not CCS. It is not hydrogen hype. CRT is a closed-loop energy system: • Carbon stays inside the system as a recyclable carrier • Renewable hydrogen supplies the energy • Energy is extracted, carbon is recovered, and the loop is closed again No displacement. No accounting tricks. Zero emissions by design. Why this matters • Fuels still beat electrons for resilient, continuous baseload • Energy security comes from system design, not fuel geopolitics • Carbon is not the enemy — uncontrolled carbon is As the UN now recognises, efficiency, resilience, digitalisation, and circularity only work when the system boundary is explicit. CRT is a practical expression of that principle. Decarbonisation is not about eliminating carbon. It is about closing the carbon loop. Carbon as the carrier. Renewable hydrogen as the fuel. Systemic efficiency as the outcome.

Decarbonisation is not about removing Carbon overnight!

Decarbonisation Is Not About Removing Carbon Overnight — It Is About Removing Fossil Carbon from the System Much of today’s global tension — economic, political, and even military — traces back to one deeply embedded belief: That energy security depends on controlling oil and gas. Energy has been framed as a matter of national security because fossil fuels are: • finite, • unevenly distributed, • extractive, • and geographically constrained. This framing has shaped geopolitics for decades — and it is based on a false premise. Energy itself is not scarce. Access to fossil carbon is. When energy systems depend on extraction, competition becomes inevitable. When they depend on circulation, competition fades. The false narrative The idea that a nation’s security depends on oil and gas control is not a law of nature. It is a consequence of how we designed the energy system. This misunderstanding has led to: • conflicts over reserves, • strategic shipping routes, • price volatility, • and perpetual instability. In reality, tying national security to fossil fuels is not a strength — it is a systemic vulnerability. What Carbon Recycling Technology (CRT) changes CRT addresses the problem at its root. It does not attempt to eliminate carbon from industry or energy systems. Instead, it does something far more fundamental: It removes fossil carbon from the system, slowly but permanently. Captured CO₂ is recycled into usable fuel using renewable energy. That fuel produces energy — and CO₂ again. The CO₂ is recaptured and recycled. Carbon atoms circulate. Fossil extraction steadily declines. Existing infrastructure continues to operate, while the source of carbon feeding the system quietly changes. This is not a disruption. It is a system correction. Why does this restore true energy security When energy is produced from: • local renewable sources, • recycled carbon, • closed-loop fuel cycles, Then energy security no longer depends on: • owning reserves, • controlling supply chains, • or projecting force. Energy becomes distributed, resilient, and non-weaponisable. CRT replaces the logic of scarcity with the logic of circulation. Beyond climate — toward stability The world is not fighting because energy demand exists. It is fighting because the current energy model rewards control and extraction. Decarbonisation done properly does more than cut emissions: • it removes the incentive for conflict, • reduces strategic dependence, • and restores long-term stability. Carbon is not the enemy. Fossil carbon dependency is. A quiet but irreversible transition CRT does not promise an overnight change. It enables a gradual withdrawal from fossil carbon without collapsing systems. Power plants still run. Industries still operate. But with each cycle, fossil inputs lose relevance. As fossil carbon fades from the system, the false link between energy and national security dissolves with it.
