This agreement joins several other significant agreements we have recently signed in the American market. We continue to present our revolutionary system to more and more companies.

The dual achievement we are reporting today is both the payment we will receive for conducting the pilot and the type of companies we are collaborating with, companies that are planning to jointly examine and implement our system. This collaboration demonstrates our commitment to innovation and green energy, and we look forward to the success of the pilot and the broad commercial potential that will follow.”
