QS Energy, Inc. Receives Initial Order for Multi-Year AOT Technology Deployment Multi-Billion-Dollar Program with Up to 400 Units Ordered to Modernize Crude Transport Infrastructure

QS Energy, Inc. has received a major order to deploy its Applied Oil Technology (AOT) across Southeast Asia and Africa. This marks a breakthrough moment for QS Energy and supports global efforts to modernize and decarbonize crude infrastructure. This initial order of five (5) AOT units launches a broader multi-phase deployment under a government-backed program with VIPS Petroleum.

Valued at $25 million with the estimated expected full payment in this quarter, this order kicks off up to a $2 Billion 400-unit framework for South East Asia and Africa. The remaining 395 units will be delivered in milestone-based phases with a 50/25/25 payment structure, ensuring strong cash flow for QS Energy, commencing in third quarter and fourth quarter 2025. AOT's proven results helped open doors with energy ministries and national oil companies.

This deal is made possible by VIPS Petroleum, QS Energy's exclusive regional distributor contracted in 2024. The TECHNOLOGY TRANSFORMING CRUDE TRANSPORT Independently validated through peer-reviewed studies, field trials, and Temple University testing, AOT tackles one of the industry's oldest problems-how to move oil more efficiently. Since the days of Rockefeller's Standard Oil, the sector has struggled viscosity, drag, and energy loss.

AOT reduces viscosity by 10% or more using electric fields, lowering pump pressure and energy costs. Built for tough, continuous operation, each unit undergoes strict testing to ensure long-term performance. MADE IN America, BUILT FOR THE world: QS Energy proudly designs and manufactures AOT systems in the U.S., powered by American workers.

partners include: Industrial Screen and Maintenance, a manufacturer with 56+ years of experience; Precision Urethane, a family business - urethane leader for 55+ years; ReadyFlo, a turnkey ASME pressure vessel specialist; Forward-MFG, experts in custom electronics and sensors. Their dedication helped make this historic deal possible. ExpANDING GLOBAL PARTNERSHIPS and FINANCing This agreement positions Southeast Asia and Africa as leaders in modern crude transport and job creation.

The program is backed by milestone payments and top-tier financial guarantees, minimizing risk. Lessons from past deployments guide a robust execution plan to ensure every phase meets deadlines and quality benchmarks.
