Carbon Recycling Technology - an economic value proposition.

Carbon Recycling Technology (CRT) Economic Value Proposition Clean Energy and Water Technologies Pty Ltd (CEWT) Carbon Recycling Technology (CRT) is designed as an infrastructure‑grade decarbonisation platform that delivers long‑term economic value by structurally reducing fuel cost exposure while increasing carbon‑related revenue over the operating life of the plant. Unlike conventional fuel‑dependent power systems, CRT converts carbon from a one‑time consumable into a continuously recycled molecular carrier, significantly lowering cumulative fuel procurement costs and reducing exposure to volatile natural gas markets. At the same time, CRT’s closed‑loop architecture transforms carbon management from a compliance obligation into an economic opportunity. By preventing the release of CO₂ and enabling its continuous reuse within the system boundary, CRT is inherently positioned to benefit from rising carbon prices and the increasing value of verified emissions avoidance. As carbon markets mature and regulatory frameworks tighten, the economic value of avoided emissions is expected to increase over the life of long‑duration energy assets. These advantages are amplified by structural trends in global energy demand. The rapid expansion of digital infrastructure, data centres, green steel, aluminium, and other energy‑intensive industries is driving sustained growth in demand for firm, dispatchable baseload power. This demand is expected to place upward pressure on both fuel prices and carbon prices over time. CRT is economically advantaged in this environment: higher fuel prices magnify avoided fuel costs, while higher carbon prices increase the value of emissions avoidance embedded in the system design. By combining fuel cost resilience with carbon price upside, CRT offers a durable economic profile aligned with long‑term infrastructure investment horizons. This dual value creation supports investor return objectives, government decarbonisation and energy‑security goals, and regulator expectations for credible, system‑level emissions reduction without reliance on offsets or ongoing subsidies.
