Optimisation of Spare Digital Infrastructure Capacity and Treasury Management

Active Energy Group plc (AIM: AEG OTC: ATGVF), the renewable energy and digital infrastructure company, announces that it intends to utilise spare and transitional capacity across its UAE digital infrastructure network for proprietary Bitcoin mining, as part of its  Treasury management strategy.

This strategy is designed to maximise shareholder value by ensuring that additional energy and infrastructure capacity does not sit idle during phased site energisation and prior to full third-party client onboarding. By deploying spare capacity internally, the Company can generate near-term value while continuing to actively contract capacity to third-party hosting, AI, and data infrastructure customers.

Any Bitcoin mined will be held within the Company's  Treasury and managed in line with policy limits so that, no more than 30% of the Company's treasury will be held in digital assets at any given time. Where treasury holdings move outside prescribed thresholds, the Company expects to rebalance accordingly, including through the sale of surplus digital assets. Proceeds from any such rebalancing may be reinvested directly into further infrastructure development, supporting the Company's targeted expansion to 100MW of capacity by the end of 2026.

An additional operational advantage of this approach is the acceleration of future client onboarding. By installing and optimising mining equipment in advance, procurement and installation lead times are materially reduced, allowing new customers to become operational within the infrastructure immediately and without delay.

Capacity Update

Further to the Company's RNS dated 6 October 2025, which confirmed that approximately 35% of the capacity at its initial 8MW UAE site had been pre-sold, the Company is pleased to announce that a further 25% of capacity has now been secured under pre-sale arrangements. This brings total pre-sold capacity at the site to approximately 60%. The Company believes this level of pre-commitment demonstrates strong demand for the site and expects the remaining capacity to be fully contracted once the facility becomes operational. The Company currently anticipates the site to be operational towards the end of January 2026.

The Company believes this approach differentiates Active Energy within the market by tightly integrating ultra-low-cost energy generation with flexible, high-performance digital infrastructure. This strategy helps bridge the gap between the energy and digital asset sectors, positioning the Company at the intersection of both.

Paul Elliott, Chief Executive Officer of Active Energy Group plc, commented:

"This strategy is a clear example of how Active Energy and its Board continue to look for innovative and disciplined ways to maximise shareholder value. By utilising spare infrastructure capacity efficiently, we avoid idle assets, accelerate cash generation, and maintain full flexibility to support long-term client growth. It also demonstrates how our energy platform and digital infrastructure strategy work together to create a differentiated and scalable business model."

Further updates will be provided as appropriate.
