CapEx Leasing Partners — Long-Duration Infrastructure Returns

Each CHARGE M1000 station requires approximately USD 3.3 million in CapEx, financed through 20-year institutional leases. CHARGE seeks bank and leasing partners to fund this pipeline — currently 25 units in 2027, scaling by 25 units per year through 2030.

  • ~20% gross annual return on blue-chip SIR covenant
  • 20-year lease term — infrastructure-grade duration
  • USD-denominated — SIR cashflow collected upfront
  • Fortune 500 anchor validates technology and commercial model
  • Sealed radioactive source — 50+ year established regulatory framework
  • Pipeline: 250 units deployable 2027–2030 = USD 825M total CapEx
Venture Capital

Equity Co-Investors — Category-Defining Infrastructure Play

CHARGE is Africa's first mover in baseload-powered electro-logistics — a market currently worth USD 91 billion annually. Series A investors at USD 100M valuation gain exposure to a 13×–31× indicative return trajectory to listing, with Series B option rights locked in at founding economics.

  • Series A entry at USD 1,000 per share — USD 100M valuation
  • Series B option: up to 10,000 additional shares at USD 3,000
  • 13×–31× indicative return to listing in 2030
  • Deep moat IP — 105-country patent portfolio, design-around requires departing from core physics
  • Anti-dilution protection (broad-based weighted average)
  • Pro-rata rights to all future rounds

USD
USD-Denominated Cashflows
SIR acquisition fees (USD 500,000 per unit) are collected upfront upon agreement execution — before EPC deployment begins. This creates positive operating cashflow ahead of energy revenue.
MIT
MIT Unit Payment Structure
Payments to our technology manufacturer in tranches: 25% at months 3, 6, 9, and 25% upon delivery. 3-year refuelling cycle — Cobalt-60 supply secured for first 3 years of commercial operations.

250-Unit Pipeline (2027–2030)

SIR Cashflow Schedule &
Deployment Scarcity

Year Units Available SIR Revenue
2027 25 units USD 12.5M
2028 50 units USD 25.0M
2029 75 units USD 37.5M
2030 100 units USD 50.0M
Total 2027–2030 250 units USD 125.0M
SIR cashflow is generated upfront upon agreement execution, prior to EPC deployment — creating positive operating cashflow independent of construction timelines. MIT orders must be confirmed by 30 June of each year on a use-it-or-lose-it basis.
01 — Why Upfront Cashflow Matters

SIR revenue is recognised before a single unit is deployed.

Unlike conventional infrastructure plays where capital is deployed and revenue follows years later, the SIR model generates upfront cashflow at agreement execution — before EPC begins. This fundamentally de-risks the early capital position.

02 — Scarcity is Structural, Not Marketing

Annual MIT allocations are fixed and non-transferable.

CHARGE's annual MIT allocation from our technology manufacturer is finite, use-it-or-lose-it, and confirmed by 30 June each year. The 2027–2029 allocations are expected to be fully subscribed before the end of 2026. Scarcity creates urgency for SIR allocation without manufactured pressure.

03 — Series A Capital Deployment

USD 5M of the Series A raise directly secures 2027 SIR allocations.

Of the USD 10M Series A raise: USD 5M funds SIR rights licensing (securing 25 units for 2027), USD 2.5M builds the platform, and USD 2.5M funds working capital — making the Series A deployment directly tied to revenue-generating infrastructure positions.

Eight Reasons to Engage Now

The combination of technology validation, commercial anchor, IP protection, and structural supply scarcity creates an investment profile rarely available at Series A.

Commercial Anchor

Fortune 500 Counterparty Validation

Counter-signed 20-year offtake agreement with a Fortune 500 automotive manufacturer, with an escalating fixed energy price and a 90–95% availability guaranty. A Fortune 500 procurement team with full legal, technical, and ESG due diligence has committed at multi-million dollar scale.

Q3 2026 Commercial Operation Target
Intellectual Property

105-Country Patent Portfolio — Deep Moat

Patent Family 1 granted in 105 countries (granted in the United States and major jurisdictions). Broad-based process patent — design-arounds require departing from core physics. Patent Family 2 filed across 95 additional countries. 10-year global prosecution history.

Design-Around Requires Departing Core Physics
Technology Validation

12+ Years R&D — Five Independent Institutional Validators

an international research university, US DOE/the national laboratory, the manufacturer's UK laboratory, a specialist nuclear research facility, and an independent senior academic specialist. 3 years of continuous commercial prototype operation. Not speculative — execution risk only.

80× Power Advantage vs Betavoltaic Competitors
Market Structure

Africa's Grid Constraints Are Permanent Demand Drivers

Grid uptime of ~43% due to loadshedding. LPU connections routinely deferred 5+ years. Solar requires 20 hectares per station vs less than 1% of that for an equivalent MIT unit. These are not temporary — they are structural demand drivers for CHARGE's off-grid baseload model.

USD 91B Market → USD 136B by 2035
Supply Scarcity

MIT Capacity Allocated Primarily to US Domestic Market

MIT production is primarily allocated to US AI and data centre infrastructure. CHARGE holds an exclusive, limited allocation of MIT capacity for Africa — creating structural scarcity that cannot be replicated by a new market entrant regardless of capital.

African Supply Exclusive & Strictly Limited
US Government Alignment

US DOE FY2025 Congressional Support for Isotope Infrastructure

US DOE FY2025 Congressional Justification explicitly references growing demand for isotopes in nuclear batteries, power sources, and clean energy applications. Firm government commitments in excess of USD 10 billion anticipated to support isotope production at scale.

Sectoral Tailwind — Not Speculative
Investor Protections

Institutional-Grade Terms — Anti-Dilution, Pro-Rata, Information Rights

Series A investors receive broad-based weighted average anti-dilution protection, pro-rata rights to all future rounds, quarterly management accounts, annual audited financials, and board observer rights for lead investors. Drag-along and tag-along provisions in the Shareholders' Agreement.

Self-Funding Model

SIR Upfront Cashflow Creates Positive Operating Cashflow From Year 1

USD 5M of the Series A directly secures 2027 SIR allocations (25 units), generating USD 12.5M in SIR revenue upfront — before EPC deployment begins. The model is designed to be partially self-funding from initial Series A deployment, reducing dependence on future dilutive rounds.

Positive Cashflow Ahead of Energy Revenue
Technology Anchor

12+ Years Validated. Not Speculative.

Five independent institutional validators over 12+ years including a US Department of Energy national laboratory. 3 years of continuous commercial prototype operation. an independent academic expert (the research institution): "great technological breakthrough."

Commercial Anchor

the Fortune 500 anchor client. Fortune 500. Counter-Signed.

A 20-year renewable energy agreement with the anchor client (the Fortune 500 anchor client) — the strongest available form of commercial validation for a pre-commercial technology. Full legal, technical, and ESG due diligence already completed by a Fortune 500 procurement team.

Regulatory Anchor

Sealed Source. 50+ Year Regulatory History.

The IPC uses sealed radioactive sources — the most established and well-defined category in nuclear materials law. UK licensed in under 90 days. South African nuclear regulatory authorities engaged. No novel regulatory pathway required.
