Insights
AirJoule's first field deployment using waste heat to produce water from air represents meaningful technology validation and commercialization progress.
AirJoule Technologies has secured a significant milestone with its upcoming deployment in Hubbard, Texas—the company's first field implementation using low-grade geothermal waste heat to produce distilled water from ambient air. This project represents crucial technology validation for their platform in real-world conditions.
The technology's core value proposition centers on its ability to utilize otherwise wasted thermal energy to create potable water without drawing from strained groundwater or surface water sources. This aligns perfectly with Texas' recent $2.5 billion water infrastructure funding and proposed $1 billion annual investment over 20 years, positioning AirJoule strategically in a priority market facing structural water quality constraints.
What makes this deployment particularly significant is the regulatory certification aspect. By pursuing potability certification to meet drinking water standards, AirJoule is addressing a critical commercial barrier. This certification would enable expansion into high-volume municipal and industrial applications—substantially broadening their addressable market.
The GE Vernova joint venture provides important third-party validation, confirming the system produces PFAS-free water. This addresses growing concerns about these "forever chemicals" in water supplies, potentially giving AirJoule a competitive advantage in environmentally-conscious markets.
With the project commencing in Q4 2025 and completing by Q1 2026, investors should watch for successful certification as a critical indicator of commercial viability. If achieved, this could trigger accelerated deployment across water-scarce regions and mark AirJoule's transition from technology development to commercial-scale implementation.
Project to include regulatory certification for potability and validation of AirJoule®’s use of geothermal low-grade waste heat to produce pure, distilled water from air
RONAN, Mont., Aug. 07, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- AirJoule Technologies Corporation (NASDAQ: AIRJ) (“AirJoule Technologies” or the “Company”), the leading technology platform that unleashes the power of water from air, today announced an agreement to deploy an AirJoule® system in the City of Hubbard, Texas. The project, which will recover heat from a geothermal water well, will be the Company’s first field deployment of AirJoule® to use low-grade waste heat to produce pure water from ambient air.
“This project highlights an important application of our AirJoule® platform: the ability to unleash the power of water from air by using low-grade waste heat to produce high-value distilled water from the air at the point of use,” said Matt Jore, CEO of AirJoule Technologies. “While this project uses geothermal heat, the same platform can use waste heat from manufacturing operations and energy production infrastructure—unlocking a distributed and sustainable water solution for industry.”
Texas is an important early market for AirJoule®, with a growing number of communities and industrial operators facing structural water quality constraints. In response to this growing problem, the Texas Legislature recently approved
By generating water from air using any readily available low-grade waste heat, the AirJoule® platform offers a scalable and energy-efficient alternative that mitigates strain on groundwater and surface water resources.
“The City of Hubbard is proud to serve as the host for this project,” said Mary Alderman, the Mayor of Hubbard, TX. “Like many communities in Texas and across the country, we’re facing growing concerns about water quality, aging infrastructure, and contamination. What’s so compelling about AirJoule® is that it produces pure, distilled, PFAS-free water right at the source. We believe it can be part of the long-term solution for communities and industries that need clean water without compromise.”
“Through our 50/50 joint venture with AirJoule Technologies, we have conducted independent testing of the water produced by the AirJoule® system,” said Dr. David Moore, Executive Manager at the GE Vernova Advanced Research Center in Niskayuna, New York. “The results confirmed that AirJoule®’s process delivers pure, PFAS-free, distilled water. I believe this capability can help solve critical water challenges facing communities and industrial operations around the world.”
As part of the project with the City of Hubbard, AirJoule Technologies intends to pursue certification that the potable water produced is fully compliant with all minimum drinking water standards, a key regulatory milestone that will enable the Company to support high-volume municipal and industrial customers with onsite water production.
The project is expected to commence in Q4 2025 and be completed by the end of Q1 2026. Pending successful testing and potability certification, the Company expects to initiate additional deployments to support water requirements for high value applications. This represents an important step in the Company’s strategy to commercialize its AirJoule® platform across a wide range of industrial applications in water-scarce regions around the world.
