In our biggest milestone to date, Advanced Ionics shipped our very first commercial stacks today: two stacks headed to the Lummus Technology pilot in Pasadena, Texas. Years of research, engineering, persistence, and belief have gone into developing a new kind of industrial electrolysis. Seeing the first Advanced Ionics stacks leave our facility for a real pilot deployment is a major moment for our company. These two boxes carry a lot. They carry the original vision of our cofounders, the trust of our investors, the commitment of our partners, and the hard work of a team that has pushed through every stage of development to get here. Thank you to the investors and strategic backers who have funded and supported this journey: Clean Energy Ventures Clean Energy Venture Group SWAN Impact Network GVP Climate bp ventures Lummus Technology JERA Ventures Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Argosy Foundation Aster Capital Thank you to our cofounders: Chad Mason Bill M. Phuc Nguyen And thank you to our commercial and program partners, including Shell GameChanger and Fundación Repsol, who helped us move from promising technology toward real industrial deployment. Thank you also to the many early supporters, advisors, ecosystem partners, and programs that helped us get here. Most of all, thank you to the Advanced Ionics team. This milestone belongs to all of you. There is much more to come, but today is a very good day.

Great to be in Pasadena today with the Lummus Technology team, where our previously announced hydrogen pilot is taking shape, moving from construction toward commissioning. Even at pilot scale, it looks and feels like a real industrial unit. This collaboration is an important step in bringing Advanced Ionics’ technology into a real operating environment, supported by the process expertise and infrastructure needed to move from development toward deployment. Thank you to Arnold Korenek, Christian Nubar Hovsepian, MSc, P.Eng. and Drew Gibson, and the broader Lummus team for hosting me and for the continued partnership. Looking forward to the milestones ahead.

Acwa #InnovationDay2026 may be over — but innovation never stops. It was a privilege to join and contribute to Acwa ’s flagship technology-centric event this year at the #Garage Riyadh. As the owner of Green Hydrogen Track, I had the honor of representing Acwa on the panel discussion exploring “How to Shape the Hydrogen Innovation Landscape.” The conversation centered on ecosystem building, cost competitiveness, industrialization pathways, and accelerating execution across the hydrogen value chain. Thank you to my colleague Imane B. for moderating the panel, together with Wolfram Münch from EnBW Energie Baden-Württemberg AG , Tulika Raj from @SungreenH2 and Sebastian Budischin from SEFE Securing Energy for Europe GmbH for this rich discussion. With over 1,000 attendees, our #InnovationDay 2026 was a powerful demonstration of collective momentum. We signed 27 MOUs to further expand and operationalize our innovation roadmap with global strategic partners — and I’m especially proud to have coordinated 11 of these partnerships Advanced Ionics; #Atom-X; AVL; Baker Hughes; CAS-SARI, H-ray; #NICE; #Power2H2; #SungreenH2; #Tsinghua University; #Tianjin University; turning strategy into structured collaboration. Moving from ambition to execution, the real work begins now. I look forward to delivering tangible, scalable solutions together with our partners. Thank you to everyone who joined us and contributed to making this event a success. Last but not least, Thank you Thomas Altmann for your visionary leadership and Kudos to our Innovation Initiatives Team Sharzi Mukhri, Afra Alsuwaidi for making this happen. #Innovation #GreenHydrogen #EnergyTransition #Partnerships #ACWAPower
