Planned Energy Supply Business
 
The Company is aiming to launch energy supply business through AEHL US, formerly known as Million Star US Inc. AEHL US has taken preliminary steps in developing this business including engaging a broker to source natural gas from natural gas provider in Texas and the procurement of electricity generators. AEHL US plans to supply power to a data center in Midland, Texas. The Company originally anticipated that its energy supply business would start operation in the third quarter of 2024. The power generation business was progressing slower than expected because it took more time than expected for the company to procure, install and learn to operate the equipment. 
 
AEHL US also plans to generate revenue by securing hosting sites for cryptocurrency mining operators as it leverages anticipated cost-effective electricity costs.
