Capital to be Specifically Allocated to Growing its Power Projects

Calgary, Alberta--(Newsfile Corp. - January 21, 2026) - NU E Power Corp. (CSE: NUE) (OTC Pink: NUEPF) (the "Company" or "NU E") is pleased to announce that further to its news release dated December 8, 2025 and December 29, 2025, it has closed the second tranche of its non-brokered private placement offering of 8,986,933 units in the capital of the Company (the "Units") at a price of $0.12 per Unit for additional gross proceeds of $1,078,431.96 (the "Offering"). Each Unit consists of one common share in the capital of the ‎Company (each, a "Common Share") and one-half of one Common Share ‎purchase warrant (each whole warrant, a "Warrant"). Each Warrant will ‎entitle the holder thereof to purchase one Common Share (each, a ‎‎"Warrant Share") at a price of $0.25 per Warrant Share for a period of 24 months after the closing date of ‎the Offering.‎

This financing marks a significant milestone for NU E as the Company enters 2026 with multiple projects advancing toward critical development inflection points. Proceeds from the financing are being deployed to support final-stage interconnection processes in Alberta, alongside the commencement of environmental and feasibility studies in Mongolia and Malaysia-key jurisdictions within NU E's global infrastructure pipeline. Breaking the Power Bottleneck, NU E is not a traditional energy developer or a data centre operator. The Company is an infrastructure arbitrage platform positioned at the intersection of power markets, compute demand, and regulatory constraint.

NU E's model is designed to:

• Own or control strategic energy and infrastructure sites.
• Integrate generation, storage, and flexible load.
• Monetize power through multiple demand vectors, including digital infrastructure and industrial users.

Use of Proceeds and Near-Term Focus Funds from the Offering are being allocated toward:

• Advancing Alberta-based projects through final interconnection stages.
• Securing our next development sites and initiating a rapid development phase in Malaysia, launching environmental and feasibility programs aligned with the country's accelerating energy infrastructure build-out and data-center demand, enabling near-term project execution and strategic site readiness.
• Strengthening technical, project and governance capabilities as NU E begins its 2026 execution cycle.

Looking ahead as global power demand accelerates-driven by AI, digital infrastructure, industrial electrification, and energy security. NU E is focused on solving the bottleneck that constrains growth: access to scalable, reliable power in regulated and capacity-constrained markets. By aligning capital, development discipline, and modular infrastructure design, NU E is building a platform capable of responding to power scarcity with speed, flexibility, and repeatability. In connection with the Offering, the Company paid to certain finders (each, a "Finder") a cash fee equal to 7% of the gross proceeds raised by each Finder, and issued an aggregate of 260,050 finder warrants (each, a "Finder Warrant"), representing 7% of the aggregate number of Units sold to purchasers introduced to the Company by such Finders. Each Finder Warrant entitles the holder thereof to acquire one Common Share at a price of $0.25 for a period of 24 months from the Closing Date. Ventum Financial Corp. and Haywood Securities Inc. acted as Finders in connection with a portion of the Offering.
