Tenet Wins Contract to Develop Clean Energy Software for East China Electric Power Design Institute

Toronto, Ontario–(Newsfile Corp. – October 2, 2023) – Tenet Fintech Group Inc. (CSE: PKK) (OTC Pink: PKKFF) (“Tenet” or the “Company”), an innovative analytics service provider and operator of the Cubeler® Business Hub, is pleased to announce it has won the bid to develop software that will help East China Electric Power Design Institute (ECEPDI) determine storage requirements and battery configurations for hydrogen battery projects.

The software will be built as a module of Tenet’s i3060 Clean Energy platform and made available to ECEPDI through a web interface. It will allow ECEPDI to design energy storage module solutions, calculate hydrogen supply prices and hydrogen production station costs, the overall yield of a photovoltaic hydrogen production system, and the rate of return on project investments.

“We believe that winning this bid is further validation of the investments that we made in developing the i3060 Clean Energy platform to help evaluate clean energy projects,” said Liang Qiu, Chief Executive Officer of Tenet’s Chinese operations. “Our intent was to provide a tool to both SMEs and larger companies that could be used to build simulated scenarios for clean energy projects and provide models that calculate profitability as well as provide recommendations for configuration, construction, engineering, maintenance, financing, and insurance. Working with companies and organizations like ECEPDI is exactly what we had in mind when developing i3060. This project will allow us to collect and process valuable data related to the clean energy sector all while continuing to provide Business Hub members with AI and analytics-based tools and services they need to make important decisions and grow their businesses,” added Mr. Qiu.

ECEPDI is a subsidiary of the state-owned conglomerate China Energy Engineering Corporation (CEEC) (http://en.ceec.net.cn/). CEEC provides holistic solutions and full-chain services in areas such as power and infrastructure in China and around the world. While the commercial value of the bid won by Tenet for the ECEPDI project is only 776,000 RMB (approximately CAD$145,000), the Company hopes to leverage CEEC size and reputation to accelerate the promotion of its i3060 Clean Energy platform in China and eventually in other parts of the world where CEEC is involved in clean energy projects. According to BloombergNEF (https://about.bnef.com/), China spent more than USD$546 billion in 2022, nearly half of the global total, on clean energy investments that included solar and wind energy, electric vehicles and batteries.

“We are pleased to have partnered with Tenet to build the assessment platform for our hydrogen battery projects,” said Longhu Xu, Manager of Investment and Development at ECEPDI. “This module on the i3060 platform will not only provide a complete evaluation of a photovoltaic hydrogen production system, but in addition, the platform will provide key financial data that will be used for the analysis that will give us a competitive edge as the clean energy sector continues its rapid growth in China,” added Mr. Xu.
