The system is currently operating 24/7 and generating immense amounts of data that validate AirJoule’s performance across different environmental conditions. This compelling performance is accelerating commercial adoption across industrial applications while exhibiting AirJoule’s circular economy approach of using waste heat to produce reliable, cost-effective, and pure water from air.
Net Zero Innovation Hub Partnership Reinforces Leadership in Sustainable Infrastructure
In September 2025, AirJoule was selected as a winner of a technology competition seeking to improve energy and water sustainability for data centers. The collaboration with the Net Zero Innovation Hub for Data Centers (the “Innovation Hub”), whose founding members include Google, Microsoft, and Data4, represents a strategic alignment with leading hyperscalers and places AirJoule at the forefront of sustainable infrastructure for next-generation data centers. AIRJ expects to showcase AirJoule’s capabilities at the Innovation Hub’s testbed facility in 2026, providing visibility to customers, investors, and strategic partners while validating its performance at a real-world data center.
AirJoule System Delivered to Arizona State University
In October 2025, AIRJ successfully delivered an AirJoule A250 system to Arizona State University (“ASU”), one of the world’s premier research institutions in the field of atmospheric water harvesting. Once operational, the ASU deployment will serve as a high-profile demonstration of the AirJoule platform technology for industrial customers in the Southwest United States. Additionally, the collaboration with ASU is expected to generate valuable research data and enable third-party validation of AirJoule’s industry-leading performance in arid environments.
Strategic Defense Sector Expansion
Collaborative Research Program with U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center
As previously announced, AIRJ entered into a Cooperative Research and Development Agreement with the U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center (“ERDC”), one of the world’s premier military research institutions. This collaboration is focused on integrating AirJoule’s waste-heat-to-water platform with tactical waste heat recovery systems to deliver resilient, fuel-efficient water supply solutions for forward-deployed military personnel.
The ERDC partnership aims to validate AirJoule’s application in the most demanding operational environments in the world and support AIRJ in capturing significant opportunities across defense and national security applications. Successful execution of this research program is expected to inform procurement decisions by the Department of Defense and allied military forces, while simultaneously accelerating commercial adoption across adjacent markets.
New Defense Collaboration on Anti-Corrosion for High Value Storage
AirJoule Technologies recently signed an agreement with a U.S defense contractor to evaluate AirJoule’s energy-efficient dehumidification for critical anti-corrosion applications. This collaboration represents a significant expansion of AIRJ’s defense sector footprint and addresses a multibillion-dollar challenge facing military installations, naval vessels, aerospace assets, and critical infrastructure.
Corrosion costs the U.S. Department of Defense billions of dollars annually in maintenance, equipment replacement, and operational readiness challenges. Traditional corrosion mitigation strategies often rely on precise humidity control using legacy dehumidification systems that are expensive to operate. AirJoule can provide dehumidified air at a fraction of the cost of conventional industrial dehumidifiers, yielding substantial cost savings to the American taxpayer. The partnership with the defense contractor envisions initial deployments in conjunction with the U.S. military beginning in 2026.
Accelerating Commercial Pipeline Development
AirJoule’s Competitive Advantage – Pure Distilled Water at Competitive Economics
A critical differentiator for AirJoule is the exceptional purity of water it produces. AirJoule’s process natively incorporates three purification steps—selective capture through advanced sorbent materials, vacuum distillation, and filtration with UV treatment—producing distilled water with zero dissolved solids that meets all EPA and FDA bottled water standards. In addition to high purity water, AirJoule offers compelling economics for customers who lack low-cost or reliable pure water sources. This enables AirJoule to compete effectively against expensive water trucking, municipal water requiring extensive treatment, or constrained supplies that limit operations.
Advancing Negotiations for Multi-Unit System Deployments
AirJoule Technologies is actively engaged in commercial discussions with customers for multi-unit AirJoule systems, representing a significant step toward scalable commercial deployment and near-term revenue generation. These discussions span diverse industries including:
- Data Centers: require significant amounts of water for cooling and onsite, behind-the-meter power generation
- Food and Beverage Manufacturing: production processes require high-purity water and facilities are often well-suited for moisture recapture
- Residential Construction: distributed water solutions are necessary for continued housing development in water-stressed regions
- Chemical Manufacturing: operations are increasingly affected by water scarcity and water quality constraints
Several of these commercial discussions involve an innovative Water Purchase Agreement (“WPA”) business model, where customers purchase water on a volumetric basis rather than purchasing AirJoule systems. This approach has the potential to dramatically accelerate customer adoption by eliminating upfront capital requirements, reducing deployment risk, and aligning customer economics with successful operation—similar to Power Purchase Agreement structures that have been successful in the power sector.
The WPA model is designed to create recurring revenue streams, strengthen customer relationships, and establish AirJoule Technologies as a long-term infrastructure partner. This strategic approach is expected to differentiate AirJoule in the market and accelerate commercialization across risk-averse and price-sensitive customer segments.
Productization and Manufacturing Scale-Up of A250 Platform
Strategic Focus on A250 Productization for Industrial Dehumidification and Water Generation
AIRJ is advancing the productization of its A250 system for commercial-scale deployment across industrial dehumidification and distributed water generation applications. This process includes initiatives to ensure reliability, maximize water productivity, and reduce the bill of materials, which are critical steps towards scalable commercial deployment in 2026. These efforts are expected to strengthen customer confidence, accelerate commercial negotiations, and enable AIRJ to respond rapidly to market demand as AirJoule transitions from an emerging technology to a deployed solution.
