Oslo, Norway - August 27, 2024

Capsol Technologies ASA, a provider of carbon capture technology to large
emitters, today announced its results for Q2 and first half 2024.

Increased demand and target price range

* Mature project pipeline expanded to 13 million tons of annual CO2 capture
capacity, up 2x year-over-year driven by biomass/BECCS and increasingly cement
in Europe.

* Target price range increased during the quarter to EUR 10-15 per ton installed
CO2 capture capacity, compared to EUR 7-12 per ton previously.

* Microsoft and Alphabet/Meta backed fund agreed to buy permanent carbon
removals from Capsol client Stockholm Exergi; EU-approved Swedish funding
mechanism in July 2024.

High Q2 activity level; studies confirming very competitive energy consumption

* Delivered two cement studies, for SCHWENK and Holcim, and four
biomass/energy-from-waste studies during and post quarter.

* Recent studies in the cement industry have shown energy consumption numbers as
low as 0.55 GJ/ton with limited plant integration, and as low as 0.25 GJ/ton
CO2. captured with more heat integration.

* Order for two CapsolGo® demonstration campaigns from SCHWENK within cement
received in August.

* Third CapsolGo® demonstration unit started operations at Växjö Energi's
biomass plant in Sweden.

* Study delivered to a leading gas turbine provider confirmed that CapsolGT® can
offer the industry's lowest carbon capture cost - and even be profit-generating
for emitters.

Entered North America and uplisted to Euronext Oslo Børs

* Successfully raised net proceeds of NOK 109 million in H1 2024, being deployed
in attractive growth opportunities including new markets, new solutions and new
revenue streams including establishing an operation in North America,
commercialization of CapsolGT® and expanding the CapsolGo® fleet.

* Opened an office in North America to establish a position in the world's
largest carbon capture and storage (CCS) market.

* Listed on Euronext Oslo Børs to make the stock more accessible to global
investors.

* Current business plan fully funded with committed engineering work,
demonstration campaigns and a NOK 92.6 million cash balance.

"On the back of successfully raising capital in the first half of 2024, we will
continue to invest in the Capsol technology portfolio to build on our
competitive edge. In parallel, we will expand our capacity and presence to meet
the growing global demand for efficient carbon capture solutions towards 2030
and beyond. Driven by ambitious climate targets, attractive government-backed
incentives, increased activity in voluntary carbon markets and rapid development
of transport and storage capacity, North America and Europe continue to lead
large-scale CCS deployment. With a pipeline of mature projects exceeding 13
million tons of carbon capture capacity, we have established a strong position
within biomass/BECCS and are responding to the growing demand for cement plants
in Europe. Now, we are taking our highly scalable business model to North
America where we opened our new office during Q2 2024," said Wendy Lam, CEO of
Capsol Technologies.

Total operating income in Q2 2024 was NOK 17 million (NOK 5.7 million in Q2
2023) and NOK 36.5 million for H1 2024 (NOK 6.6 million for H1 2023). Pre-tax

NOK -27.1 million for H1 2024 (NOK -24.9 million for H1 2023).
