The current market for systems that harvest water from air is highly fragmented, with most competitors offering products that rely on condensation-based methods, using energy and refrigerants to cool air below its dew point and collect the resulting water droplets. Other products incorporate desiccant materials that absorb humidity from the air, then release it as liquid water when heated. The primary drawback from these existing technologies is that they require significant amounts energy to operate, which negatively impacts cost-efficiency. We believe that AirJoule, with its transformational technology and unprecedented efficiency for harvesting water vapor, provides superior energetics compared to incumbent technologies and positions us to capture a meaningful amount of the growth in this evolving sector. Dehumidification Several established players have a significant presence in the industrial dehumidification market, leveraging extensive experience, broad product portfolios, and strong global distribution networks. Our AirJoule technology produces dehumidified air at a fraction of the energy required for conventional desiccant-based systems, which can yield significant operating expense savings for customers that require dehumidified air in their operations. HVAC The production and sale of HVAC equipment is highly competitive. HVAC manufacturers primarily compete on the basis of price, depth of product line, product efficiency and reliability, product availability and warranty coverage. The largest companies in the HVAC market include Carrier, Trane Technologies plc, Lennox International, Inc., Mitsubishi Electric Corporation and Rheem Manufacturing Company, among others. A number of factors affect competition in the HVAC market, including the development and application of new technologies and an increasing emphasis on the development of more efficient HVAC products. In addition, there are several startups focused on disrupting the air conditioning industry by introducing innovative new products that attempt to compete with and displace the large incumbent companies. These startups include Blue Frontier, Mojave Systems, and Transaera. While AirJoule’s superior energy-efficiency for dehumidification has the potential to transform air conditioning, our strategy does not involve competing directly against the large incumbents. Rather
