KSA RDIA endorses HUI, accelerating KSA strategy

Hydrogen Utopia International PLC, a company pioneering non-recyclable plastic
waste-to-hydrogen technology, is delighted to announce significant progress in
its strategic engagement with the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia's Research,
Development and Innovation Authority ("RDIA").

This development follows ongoing cooperation between RDIA and the Innovation
and Entrepreneurship Sector at the Ministry, under a national programme
designed to localise advanced technologies within the Kingdom's research,
development and innovation ecosystem.

Within this strategic context, RDIA considers Hydrogen Utopia International to
be a company with activities in research, development and innovation that
align with the objectives of KSA's national objectives and framework.

RDIA's assessment reflects the technological relevance of InEnTec's
plasma-assisted waste-to-hydrogen technology represented by HUI in the region.
InEnTec's highly advanced technology in advancing low-carbon energy, circular
economy systems, and innovative industrial solutions makes a meaningful
contribution to the Kingdom's long-term circular economy priorities and
ambitions.

RDIA is one of Saudi Arabia's most important national institutions, tasked
with shaping and advancing the Kingdom's long-term research, development and
innovation strategy. It plays a pivotal role in transitioning the Saudi
economy toward one driven by knowledge, technology and high-value industrial
capability. Through its mandate, RDIA supports the localisation of frontier
technologies, the development of intellectual property, the expansion of local
content, and the creation of high-tech economic sectors aligned with Vision
2030.

A core element of this mission is RDIA's commitment to elevating the role of
startups and small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) as engines of
innovation. By integrating global technologies into Saudi Arabia's research
and industrial ecosystem, RDIA aims to accelerate economic diversification,
strengthen national competitiveness and drive social and economic development
across the Kingdom.

This recognition marks a significant step in the company's efforts to
establish a presence within Saudi Arabia's rapidly growing innovation
landscape. It is a powerful, national credibility and validation signal that
increases trust with local partners and allows Hydrogen Utopia International
access to all of the Kingdom's Ministries, investors and giga-projects,
accelerating HUI's ability to secure projects, investment and partnerships,
with smoother government engagement and permitting, access to grants, funding
schemes and national innovation programmes.

Hydrogen Utopia International believes that RDIA's mission and national
importance make this emerging cooperation particularly significant. Alignment
with RDIA's priorities places HUI's and InEnTec technology within Saudi
Arabia's highest-level strategic framework for research, innovation and
technological advancement.

Hydrogen Utopia International PLC will continue to update shareholders as
further progress is made.

Aleksandra Binkowsa, CEO of Hydrogen Utopia International PLC, commented:

"We are honoured to receive such recognition from the Research, Development
and Innovation Authority, an institution whose strategic vision is driving the
Kingdom's research and industrial ambitions. Our exclusive option to represent
InEnTec's plasma-assisted waste-to-hydrogen technology across MENA, with a
particular focus on Saudi Arabia and the GCC, positions HUI to contribute
meaningfully to low-carbon energy solutions and circular-economy initiatives.
We look forward to working closely with RDIA and other key stakeholders to
advance innovation, deliver sustainable industrial solutions, and strengthen
Saudi Arabia's leadership in cutting-edge technology sectors."

Iman Ramani: "Receiving recognition from RDIA is a significant milestone for
Hydrogen Utopia's entry into the Kingdom. It reflects the strength of our
technology and validates the work we have done to align our vision with Saudi
Arabia's national innovation agenda. I am proud to have led this engagement to
support bringing world-class waste-to-hydrogen solutions to a country that is
redefining the global clean-energy landscape."

About Hydrogen Utopia International PLC 

 

HUI aims to become one of the leading new European companies specialising in
converting non-recyclable mixed waste plastic into hydrogen and other
carbon-free fuels, new materials or distributed renewable heat.  

A HUI facility uses non-recyclable mixed waste plastic as feedstock and turns
it into syngas from which new products and energy can be produced. HUI
anticipates that its revenues will be derived from a variety of sources,
dependent upon location and configuration of the HUI facilities, including the
sale of syngas, hydrogen and other gases, electricity and heat sales, and the
payment to it of fees for a given quantity of non-recyclable mixed waste
plastic received at a HUI facility. 

HUI will target areas where there is significant private sector interest or
potential, financial backing is accessible and or where substantial EU and/or
government funded sources of grants and loans are or may be available. The
global increase in fossil fuel-based energy prices reinforces the need for
alternative, price competitive energy sources, which HUI's business model can
provide.
