SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., April 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Cyber Enviro-Tech, Inc. (OTCQB: CETI), an environmental technology company advancing water treatment and clean energy solutions, today highlighted the strategic alignment of its AirPower compressed air energy platform with the April 20, 2026 Presidential Actions focused on strengthening U.S. energy infrastructure, enhancing grid resilience, and reducing long-term reliance on traditional fossil fuels.

The Presidential Actions announced yesterday, as outlined by the White House (https://www.whitehouse.gov/news/), underscore the growing national focus on modernizing energy infrastructure, improving grid reliability, and expanding access to scalable, domestically deployable energy solutions capable of supporting both grid-connected and off-grid environments.

Building on its recently announced exclusive manufacturing and distribution agreement with AirPower USA, CETI is expanding its focus on scalable energy infrastructure solutions designed to support both domestic and international markets where reliability, cost efficiency, and sustainability are critical.

AirPower’s patented compressed air technology provides a zero-emission energy generation and storage solution designed to address these evolving energy priorities through mechanically driven systems that reduce dependence on traditional fuels and complex battery supply chains.

AirPower systems are designed to:

Deliver zero-emission power generationProvide long-duration energy storage without battery degradationReduce dependence on critical minerals and battery supply chainsOperate in remote, off-grid, and infrastructure-constrained environmentsSupport industrial, municipal, and energy infrastructure applications

Aligned Leadership Perspective
“These policy priorities reinforce the accelerating shift toward resilient, distributed, and diversified energy systems,” said Kim D. Southworth, Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Cyber Enviro-Tech. “We believe our AirPower platform is well aligned with these trends and positions CETI to participate in emerging opportunities tied to infrastructure modernization, grid stability, and long-term energy transition.”

“Compressed air energy systems offer a practical and scalable pathway to deliver clean, reliable energy across a wide range of applications,” said Brianna Stoecklein, Chief Executive Officer of AirPower USA. “As energy policy and infrastructure priorities increasingly focus on resilience, independence, and long-duration storage, we believe AirPower’s technology is well positioned to support critical infrastructure applications and emerging deployment opportunities as demand for reliable, scalable energy solutions continues to accelerate.”

Expanding Energy Infrastructure Opportunity
CETI’s integration of AirPower technology represents a strategic expansion of its environmental platform into energy infrastructure applications, particularly where reliable power is essential to water treatment, industrial remediation, and critical operations.

The Company has begun advancing a pipeline of commercial opportunities, including a previously announced early-stage inquiry representing a potential $200 million deployment opportunity in Africa. CETI continues to evaluate additional opportunities across regions and sectors where energy access, infrastructure resilience, and cost efficiency are key drivers.
CETI is currently engaged in discussions with industry participants, infrastructure developers, and potential partners to evaluate deployment opportunities for AirPower systems across applications including:

Grid support and peak load managementRemote and off-grid power generationIndustrial and municipal infrastructureEnergy support for water treatment and environmental systems

Positioned for Long-Term Energy Transition Trends
As both policy direction and market demand increasingly emphasize energy independence, resilience, and sustainability, CETI believes compressed air energy systems may serve as a complementary solution within a diversified energy mix, particularly in applications where traditional electrification or battery storage may be limited.
The Company believes its combined environmental and energy platform positions CETI to pursue opportunities aligned with long-term trends in infrastructure investment, distributed energy deployment, and sustainable industrial operations.

Advancing Toward Commercial Execution
CETI’s recent strategic initiatives—including its AirPower licensing agreement, leadership expansion, and growing project pipeline—reflect the Company’s continued transition toward execution-focused operations and revenue-oriented opportunities.
“We are focused on advancing opportunities that have the potential to translate into commercial activity,” Southworth added. “Our objective is to align CETI’s platform with areas of increasing demand while maintaining a disciplined approach to execution and growth.”

Company also unveils premium credit program for builders, startups, and enterprises to accelerate growth

PALO ALTO, Calif., April 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — PaleBlueDot AI today announced the launch of PBD TokenRouter at tokenrouter.com, a new platform designed to make it easier and more affordable for organizations of every size to access and manage artificial intelligence models.

Built for business use from day one, PBD TokenRouter serves the full spectrum of builders in the AI era: builders, startups, and enterprises running mission-critical AI workloads. The platform provides a comprehensive, business-to-business solution that centralizes control over AI resources for teams scaling adoption while maintaining operational and cost discipline.

Leveraging the company’s Token Factory model and existing compute infrastructure, PBD TokenRouter expands into a full-stack intelligence solution that combines proprietary token production with an ecosystem-driven go-to-market approach. Through a single integration point, PBD TokenRouter consolidates frontier providers into a single API layer that powers any AI application with all token usage managed in one place.

“Our goal is simple: to deliver faster, better, and cheaper access to intelligence infrastructure for everyone,” said Stephen Watts, CEO of PaleBlueDot AI. “Builders shouldn’t have to re-architect their stack every time a model provider goes down or a better model ships. PBD TokenRouter handles orchestration, failover, and access management, so that builders, startups, and enterprises can focus on what they’re actually building.”

Unified AI Access with Enterprise-Grade Governance

PBD TokenRouter is designed to help organizations control and optimize AI spend while ensuring consistent performance by eliminating the need for individual account registrations, replacing fragmented workflows with streamlined administration across internal teams and projects to consolidate oversight of AI usage and costs.

Key capabilities include:

Smart Token Routing: A proprietary skill that analyzes each request and routes it to the model best suited for the task, optimizing performance and cost automatically.Multi-Channel Automatic Failover: PBD TokenRouter maintains connections across multiple upstream providers, direct model access, and PBD’s self-hosted inference cloud, enabling 99.95% uptime when any route degrades.Real-Time Cost Governance: Automated budget enforcement operates at the member, team, and department level across the full request lifecycle, replacing manual reconciliation with programmatic spend controls.Smart Caching: Intelligent request deduplication and result reuse reduce unnecessary token consumption without requiring application-level changes.

PaleBlueDot AI also unveiled its Premium Token Credit Program, which selects 100 builders, startups, and enterprises each month to receive free inference credits. The program is designed to connect PBD TokenRouter with developers, founders, and teams driving the most meaningful work in AI today. As part of the program, PBD TokenRouter will host and sponsor global hackathons, partner with organizations around the world on events and programs, and support broader AI research initiatives.

PBD TokenRouter is available now at tokenrouter.com.
