Delivering Closed-Loop Energy Systems for a Defossilised World

Investor & Strategic Brief

1. Executive Summary

The global energy system is undergoing a structural reset.
Geopolitical instability, volatile fuel markets, and climate constraints are exposing the limitations of the traditional open-loop energy model.

Carbon Recycling Technology (CRT), developed by Clean Energy and Water Technologies (CEWT), introduces a closed-loop energy architecture that continuously recycles carbon.

CRT enables dispatchable, zero-emission power while maintaining compatibility with existing infrastructure — solving energy security and decarbonisation simultaneously.

2. The Problem

• Fossil fuel dependency exposes nations to geopolitical risk
• Renewable intermittency limits industrial application
• Hydrogen faces storage, transport, and cost challenges
• Existing infrastructure is hydrocarbon-based

The current system is fragmented and unsustainable.

3. The CRT Solution

CRT creates a closed carbon loop:

CO₂ + Renewable H₂ → Synthetic Methane → Energy → CO₂ (recycled)

Key outcomes:
• Baseload renewable power
• Continuous industrial heat
• Energy-dense fuel storage
• Full infrastructure compatibility

4. Strategic Advantages

• System-level integration (power + heat + fuel)
• Energy sovereignty for nations
• Reduced transition CAPEX (uses existing assets)
• Scalable across industries (power, steel, chemicals)

5. Financial Snapshot (135 MW Project)

• Total CAPEX: ~A$1.624 Billion
• IRR: ~11.7%
• Payback: ~8 years
• Debt:Equity: 65:35
• Strong alignment with ARENA, CEFC, and Green Iron Fund

6. Why Now

• Energy markets destabilised by geopolitical conflict
• Carbon pricing tightening globally
• Industrial decarbonisation urgency is increasing
• Hydrogen economy limitations are becoming evident

This creates a clear entry point for CRT.

7. Conclusion

The transition ahead is not about replacing fuels — it is about redesigning the system.

CRT enables a shift from open-loop to closed-loop energy architecture, delivering both sustainability and energy independence.

This is foundational change, not incremental improvement.
