Over the last year, CETY’s AI-tagged news centered on positioning its clean-energy solutions for data centers. On Nov 4, 2025, it outlined plans to develop energy‑efficient offerings for AI data centers and crypto miners, citing rapid growth in data center power demand, yet the stock fell 27.83% in 24 hours. Earlier, on Nov 12, 2024, a memorandum of understanding with Freyr Technology to deliver AI computing and data center services in Southeast Asia led to a 17.14% decline. Today’s update extends that AI narrative via exposure to China Ruifeng’s planned project, but still as a non-operating participant.
Historical Comparison
In the past, CETY’s AI‑tagged releases (average move -22.48%) often saw selling despite strategic language. The current AI‑infrastructure update, tied indirectly via China Ruifeng’s bond, contrasts with those weaker historical reactions.
CETY’s AI narrative has progressed from exploring energy‑efficient solutions and regional AI data center partnerships to gaining financial exposure to a large AI computing center concept through China Ruifeng’s convertible bond.

Market Pulse Summary
This announcement links CETY’s clean‑energy capabilities to China Ruifeng’s contemplated US$ 3.4 billion AI computing center project, but only through a passive convertible bond and without definitive agreements for CETY. Historically, AI‑tagged news for CETY has not guaranteed favorable price reactions, and the company retains an unused $70M shelf registration. Investors may focus on whether CETY secures concrete contracts, how any future capital raising is structured, and the timeline toward the project’s targeted 2028 initial operations.
