NextNRG
is Powering What’s Next by implementing artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) into renewable energy, next-generation
energy infrastructure, battery storage, wireless electric vehicle (“EV”) charging and on-demand mobile fuel delivery to create
an integrated ecosystem.
At
the core of NextNRG’s strategy is its utility operating system, which leverages AI and ML to help make existing utilities’
energy management as efficient as possible, and the deployment of NextNRG smart microgrids, which utilize AI-driven energy management
alongside solar power and battery storage to enhance energy efficiency, reduce costs and improve grid resiliency. These microgrids are
designed to serve commercial properties, schools, hospitals, nursing homes, parking garages, rural and tribal lands, recreational facilities
and government properties, expanding energy accessibility.
NextNRG
continues to expand its growing fleet of fuel delivery trucks and national footprint. NextNRG is also integrating sustainable energy
solutions into its mobile fueling operations. The company hopes to be an integral part of assisting its fleet customers in their transition
to EV, supporting more efficient fuel delivery while advancing clean energy adoption. The transition process is expected to include the
deployment of NextNRG’s innovative wireless EV charging solutions.
What
is a microgrid?
In
simple terms, a microgrid is a small-scale power grid that can operate independently or collaboratively with other power grids. NextNRG’s
technology is designed to mitigate risk of utilizing renewable energy, while maximizing energy output efficiencies. NextNRG believes
that its smart microgrid technology will serve as an effective platform for integrating distributed energy resources (“DERs”)
and achieving optimal performance in reduced costs and emissions while bolstering the resilience of a city, a building, or rural communities’
electrification systems. Additionally, they achieve cost savings through peak shaving and selling excess power to off-takers.

The
microgrid, solar, and EV Charging markets in the U.S. have been growing steadily with the presence of key players engaged in research
and development to increase efficiency and decrease the cost of the components. NextNRG believes the confluence of multiple clean energy
trends creates a significant market opportunity. According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration (“EIA”), the U.S.
spends $400 billion on electricity each year, of which $200 billion is spent on Commercial & Industrial properties. It is expected
that an additional $98 billion of investment will be required to meet the country’s 2030 sustainability goals. Renewable energy
microgrids have proven an effective tool to help customers, expand electrical grid capabilities, gain access to electricity where it
is not easily accessible, respond to, and prepare for, natural disasters, and bring down electricity costs. Additionally, renewable energy
microgrids are a viable solution for countries who would like to scale their renewable energy production and lessen their dependence
on foreign oil supply. Finally, we believe it is necessary to rapidly increase the scale and scope of renewable generation assets in
the U.S. in order to meet the various targets and commitments set by corporations and governments.

Next
Owned Smart Microgrid:
NextNRG
believes that through strategic deployments it should be able to build and operate solar energy systems coupled with its AI/ML based
smart microgrid technology (“NextNRG Smart Microgrids”), on commercial properties, schools, hospitals, nursing homes, parking
garages, large rural tracts of land, recreational facilities, tribal land, and federal, state, county, and municipal properties. The
NextNRG Smart Microgrids will help customers gain access to electricity where not otherwise available, reduce electricity bills, progress

accessibility of clean electricity: Through deployment of microgrid and solar solutions NextNRG believes it should be able to
provide clean electricity to customers who otherwise would not have been able to construct on-site solar (e.g. apartment and condominium
customers). This increases the total addressable market and enables energy security for all.
●
Supporting
clean energy ecosystem: Demand for clean sources of electricity is anticipated to continue to increase. NextNRG plans to support
future customers in their continued transition to the clean energy ecosystem through its microgrid, solar and battery storage systems
as well as wireless EV charging stations. It expects that its expansion of product offerings will allow it to support even more customers
in this transition.
NextNRG
is the owner of exclusive licenses to four patented technologies which cover the development and commercialization of AI/ML based smart
microgrids and virtual power plants (“VPP”). The algorithms used to secure the patents were developed with the support and
research of Federal agencies and have been tested and proven on the infrastructure of the largest renewable energy company in the world.
Certain of the above technologies are currently deployed by a large utility for approximately six million of its customers. The combined
technologies are referred to as the NextNRG Smart Microgrid and potential products based on these technologies are explained in more
detail below.
Smart
Microgrid Controller (U.S. Patent No. 10326280)
●
The
Microgrid Controller is a pivotal component within the smart microgrid ecosystem, serving as the orchestrator of energy resources.
It efficiently manages the integration and coordination of various power sources, including solar panels, and battery storage systems.
By continuously monitoring energy production and consumption, the controller ensures optimal performance and reliability of the microgrid.
It dynamically balances supply and demand, adjusting energy flows in real-time to maintain stability and prevent outages. This intelligent
management enables seamless transitions between grid-connected and island modes, ensuring uninterrupted power supply during grid
failures.
●
The
Smart Microgrid Controller uniquely addresses customer needs to optimize renewable energy use. As smaller versions of main energy
grids, microgrids can operate in grid-connected and “island” mode as needed. For example, when severe weather affects
the energy grid, a microgrid can operate autonomously using its local energy sources to power buildings or facilities. It connects
and disconnects from the grid through a grid-forming inverter, which performs black-starts to independently restart the grid. Using
the Smart Microgrid Controller ensures that the customer is always using its best and most reliable source of energy.
6
The
RenCast Predictor (U.S. Patent No. 11022720)
●
RenCast
is a AI/ML based tool designed to enhance the efficiency and reliability of renewable energy generation within the smart microgrid.
By leveraging cutting-edge artificial intelligence and machine learning algorithms, RenCast accurately forecasts the amount of energy
that will be produced from renewable sources such as solar and wind. This predictive capability allows the microgrid to forecast
and manage energy supply effectively, ensuring that energy storage and distribution are optimized. By analyzing real-time data from
weather stations, historical energy usage, and sensor inputs, RenCast minimizes uncertainties and maximizes the utilization of renewable
energy.
●
The
RenCast Predictor’s renewable energy generation forecast includes a 5-minute, 15-minute, 1-hour, or 7-day prediction with up
to 93% accuracy. The system includes weather sensors and imaging cameras. Weather parameters include wind speed, wind direction,
ambient temperature, precipitation, atmosphere turbidity, and translucency. The forecaster receives this data from a geo-satellite
feed, estimates the cloud cover, and derives the cloud shading profile. The processor receives and uses aggregation data to forecast
renewable energy generation.
●
The
RenCast Predictor uses the web service API to implement photovoltaic (“PV”)-generation forecasts into the algorithms
(e.g., economic dispatch), enabling customers to accurately plan and manage renewable energy generation.
The
Battery State of Charge (“SOC”) System (U.S. Patent No. 10969436)
Battery
storage is vital. It supports integrating and expanding renewable energy sources, such as solar power, while reducing reliance on fossil
fuels. Storing excess energy generated during periods of high renewable generation (sunny or windy) helps mitigate the reliability issues
associated with renewable power sources. This equipment can dramatically improve electrification in rural areas, on tribal lands, and
in low-income communities in-need of clean, reliable power. Battery energy storage systems provide a versatile and scalable solution
for energy storage and power management, load management, backup power, and improved power quality.
●
The
Battery SOC provides AI/ML systems to forecast SOC of the systems’ lithium-ion batteries.
●
The
system uses a multi-step forecasting process and experimentally obtained decreasing C-rate datasets and with ML to forecast the system
batteries’ SOC. The multi-step approach combines at least one univariate technique with ML techniques to forecast first C-rate,
voltage, current, and SOC percentage to the ML model and forecast the battery’s SOC using an optimizer and ML model. The parameters
from a second C-rate are collected by the battery analyzer and can be stored on the machine-readable medium to train the ML model(s)
before forecasting. The forecasted battery SOC can be displayed in operable communication with the processor, the machine-readable
medium, and the battery analyzer. This enables the customer to always be informed on the stored energy and health of each battery
in the system.
The
Portable Emergency AC Energy (“PEACE”) Controller (U.S. Patent No. 10958211)
●
The
Peace Controller is a smaller version of the smart microgrid that uses the same AI/ML technologies to provide a mobile source of
renewable power in the case of local energy interruption. The controller’s short-term goal is to provide uninterrupted clean
energy to consumers during and after natural disasters to power emergency appliances, and for daily use to reduce the energy costs.
Long-term the controllers can be scaled up as medium-to-large scale power hubs to provide grid services and network resilience.
●
During
power outages the PEACE supplier serves as a mobile power source for users with PV and/or energy storage systems. PEACE can also
provide power when users do not have sufficient solar energy for their needs. The supplier includes an inverter to create seamless
three-way connection between a PV cell or system, an energy storage unit, and the power grid. Additionally, PEACE includes a web
application that displays the location, battery SOC, power generation, local weather systems, and charts.
7
The
RenCast Predictor, the Smart Microgrid Controller, Battery SOC, and PEACE Controller can be combined to turn a renewable energy microgrid
into a “smart” system that uses AI/ML to increase the system’s efficiencies by up to 10%. Next’s smart microgrid
solution aggregates accurate estimates of future energy generation and SOC and programs the Smart Microgrid Controller to optimize the
energy use based on the customer’s needs.
HOPES
Controller (“VPP”)
●
The
HOPES controller is still under development.
●
The
HOPES controller will allow microgrids in different locations to communicate and control to facilitate VPP applications and provide
a VPP concept for grid-connected renewable energy sources.
●
The
software component will include predictive and prescriptive computation models to address and mitigate the concerns facing high-penetration
scenarios into the grid. The controller allows consumers to integrate novel computational tools for state-of-the-art renewable energy
generation forecasting, wide-area aggregation, optimize dynamic renewable hosting capacity, intelligently synchronize devices, and
dispatch on-demand. The HOPES Controller will integrate and manage small-to-large-scale renewable energy solutions across smart grids.
Additionally it will integrate renewable energies to the grid. The HOPES controller connects individual plants to build a VPP that
transfers energy between locations connected through transmission lines based on availability and demand to improve the overall system
resiliency.
The
HOPES Controller will be able to:
●
Conduct
short-term forecasting of the power generated by the renewable energy power plant.
●
Execute
a dispatch for bulk energy transfer using a hybrid energy storage module to minimize renewable energy curtailment and increase the
renewable energy hosting capacity.
●
Predict
renewable energy generation intermittencies with wide-area aggregation using a wavelet theory-based transformation model and cooperative
game theoretic modeling.
●
Conduct
predictive smart load control to effectively use renewable energy and hybrid energy modules to address critical and deferrable loads
and minimize system instabilities.
●
Support
functionalities for energy pricing and economics of the grid-connected renewable energy to ensure feasibility of intelligence and
visibility of renewable energy.
●
Work
with utility-level applications like distributed energy resource management systems and advanced distribution management systems
to optimize existing renewable energy power plants.
The
NextNRG Smart Microgrid is designed to maintain grid stability and enhance operational efficiency through advanced monitoring and control
systems. By integrating grid forming inverters and multi-level controllers, the microgrid dynamically adjusts to fluctuations in energy
demand and supply. These components work together to ensure a consistent and reliable power supply, reducing the risk of outages and
improving overall energy efficiency. The system’s real-time monitoring capabilities provide utility operators with valuable insights
into grid performance, enabling informed decision-making and proactive management.
The
two deployments of the NextNRG Smart Microgrid are expected to be in California at two healthcare facilities.
NextNRG
currently is working on a deployment on tribal land in the State of Louisiana. NextNRG is targeting tribal land is
because nearly 17,000 tribal homes are without electricity and tribal communities experience 6.5x more power outages than national average.
NextNRG
has approximately $750 Million in planned smart microgrid deployments. All of these projects are in different phases of the project
timeline. The projects vary from municipal property to Tribal land, to commercial facilities (healthcare, office space, multifamily,
and amusement parks).
8
NextNRG
believes that utility companies; microgrid companies; and renewable energy generation companies will all be able to capitalize on the
advantages of the NextNRG smart microgrid technology and therefore NextNRG plans to offer its technology to these companies under a SaaS
model.
At
each location where the NextNRG Smart Microgrid will be deployed, NextNRG plans to evaluate the possibility of deploying NextNRG’s wireless
EV charging solutions. These solutions are explained in more detail below.
Wireless
EV charging uses resonant electromagnetic induction to transmit a current, this process is also known as “inductive charging”
or “wireless power transfer” (“WPT”). Wireless charging utilizes a charging pad installed in the ground and a
similar pad installed on the bottom of a car, when the pads align, charging automatically begins.
Wireless
EV charging offers several benefits:
●
By
definition, the number one benefit of wireless EV charging is that there are no wires. EV owners do not need to carry heavy charging
cables or plug their cars in at every charging station, alleviating range anxiety.
●
EV
charging cables can become damaged over time, particularly in extreme heat and cold areas, which can be hazardous to the vehicle
and its owner. No wires mean less risk, and replacing cables is expensive, too.
●
Wireless
charging is simply more convenient, even when only available as static charging – and if and when dynamic charging becomes
a reality, it will be extremely convenient as well.
●
Wireless
charging is more efficient than a traditional plug in charger.
Wireless
Charging Parking Bumper (U.S. Patent No. 10836269B2)
NextNRG’s
primary patent covers an EV charging station, designed as a bumper which ensures proper alignment between the vehicle’s battery
charger and the charger pad in the charging station.
●
Integrated
sensors detect the vehicle’s position as it parks.
●
A
built-in radio frequency receiver identifies the vehicle through a unique code.
●
Once
the system verifies payment with a server, an internal processor activates wireless, inductive charging.
●
The
entire setup offers a seamless integration of sleek design, precise vehicle detection, and secure payment verification for efficient
charging.
●
NextNRG’s
parking bumper patent is the integration of a networked wireless charging bumper with a contactless payment system, and advanced
communication protocols and encryption methods.
NextNRG
believes its parking bumper patent is the key to commercializing wireless EV charging, the automated verification and payment system
is expected to be the most seamless way to start a charge.
NextNRG
also holds the exclusive license for three patents in the WPT space - two for the static transfer of energy and one for the dynamic transfer
of energy. The licensed WPT solutions are based on a unique analog architecture. The static solution also provides a bi-direction (grid
to vehicle and vehicle to grid) power transfer which allows a charged EV to serve as a reserve generator for the home in case of power
failure.
Bidirectional
Wireless Power Transfer (U.S. Patent No. 10637294B2)
This
patent describes a system capable of wirelessly transferring power in both directions. This technology is designed for efficient and
safe power exchange, which could be particularly useful in scenarios where power needs to be sent back to the grid during peak demand,
and/or power outages.
9
Advancements
in Inductive Power Transfer (U.S. Patent No. 9919610B1)
This
patent focuses on enhancing the capabilities of wireless power transfer systems. The improvements include increasing the efficiency of
power transfer, extending the longevity of the system and broadening its applicability across various contexts.
Wireless
EV Charging Station for Static and Dynamic Charging (U.S. Patent No. 9731614B1)
This
patent details a wireless charging station specifically designed for EVs. It has the capability to charge EVs both when they are stationary
(static) and while they are in motion (dynamic). The dynamic charging allows for continuous charging, potentially revolutionizing the
way EVs maintain battery levels.
To
date, NextNRG’s static and dynamic solutions have been designed and prototypes are being tested at 25 kwh of output in a
laboratory environment at FIU, with plans to expand the output capacity to 1 mwh and above. NextNRG expects for this static WPT
solution to automate EV charging such that drivers do not need to do anything to charge. There are no cables inside or outside of
the car. NextNRG’s static and dynamic solutions are not expected to be affected by rain, snow, ice, dust, or dirt. They will
be a clean and safe way to charge EVs.
NextNRG
expect that its static WPT systems will be bidirectional, this means that they will support connecting grid-to-vehicle (“G2V”)
and vehicle-to-grid (“V2G”). NextNRG is unaware of any other WPT system which has V2G capabilities. For homeowners who want
to deploy solar and microgrid solutions at their home, with our WPT system we expect for those homeowners to be able to utilize their
car as a battery storage system. Additionally, in emergency outage situations homeowners with our WPT system will be able to maintain
power by using our V2G capabilities.
Additionally,
through an integration with our Smart Microgrid deployments, NextNRG plans for its WPT systems to be able to integrate with the grid
to help create a resilient network to handle disaster conditions. For example, during a hurricane in areas with power outages, EVs with
V2G capability would be able to power hospitals, homes, and other critical infrastructure to create a reliable, longer lasting energy
source.
NextNRG
expects for its dynamic WPT solution to be implemented on highways and public roads so it can provide essentially unlimited range for
EVs without plugging-in or stopping for recharging. These solutions will revolutionize the future of transportation systems. NextNRG
is working with FIU to deploy the dynamic WPT solution as a pilot for use on their campus and demonstrate its capabilities.
The
microgrid, solar, and EV Charging markets in the U.S. have been growing steadily with the presence of key players engaged in research
and development to increase efficiency and decrease the cost of the components. NextNRG believes the confluence of multiple clean energy
trends creates a significant market opportunity. Renewable energy
microgrids have proven an effective tool to help customers, expand electrical grid capabilities, gain access to electricity where it
is not easily accessible, respond to, and prepare for, natural disasters, and bring down electricity costs. Additionally, renewable energy
microgrids are a viable solution for countries who would like to scale their renewable energy production and lessen their dependence
on foreign oil supply. Finally, we believe it is necessary to rapidly increase the scale and scope of renewable generation assets in
the U.S. in order to meet the various targets and commitments set by corporations and governments.

Regulatory
Although
NextNRG is not regulated as a public utility in the United States under applicable national, state or other local regulatory regimes
where it conducts business, it expects to compete primarily with regulated utilities. As a result, it has developed and is committed
to maintaining a policy team to focus on the key regulatory and legislative issues impacting the entire industry. It believes these efforts
help it better navigate local markets through relationships with key stakeholders and facilitate a deep understanding of the national
and regional policy environment.
To
operate its systems, NextNRG may need to obtain interconnection permission from the applicable local primary electric utility. Depending
on the size of the solar energy system and local law requirements, when needed interconnection permission will be provided by the local
utility directly to NextNRG and/or future customers. In almost all cases, interconnection permissions are issued on the basis of a standard
process that has been pre-approved by the local public utility commission or other regulatory body with jurisdiction over net metering
policies. As such, no additional regulatory approvals are required once interconnection permission is given.
NextNRG’s
future operations will be subject to stringent and complex federal, state and local laws, including regulations governing the occupational
health and safety of our employees and wage regulations. For example, it is subject to the requirements of the federal Occupational Safety
and Health Act, as amended (“OSH Act”), and comparable state laws that protect and regulate employee health and safety. NextNRG
endeavors to maintain compliance with applicable OSH Act and other comparable government regulations.
Government
Incentives
Federal,
state and local government bodies provide incentives to owners, distributors, system integrators and manufacturers of solar energy systems
to promote solar energy in the form of rebates, tax credits, and exclusion of solar energy systems from property tax assessments. These
incentives enable us to lower the price we charge customers for energy from, and to lease, our solar energy systems, helping to catalyze
customer acceptance of solar energy as an alternative to utility-provided power. In addition, for some investors, the acceleration of
depreciation creates a valuable tax benefit that reduces the overall cost of the solar energy system and increases the return on investment.
12
The
Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the “IRA”), which was passed in August 2022, substantially changed and expanded existing
federal tax benefits for renewable energy. The IRA extended the existing framework for investment tax credits (“ITC”) offered
by the federal government under Section 48(a) of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”) and provided for ITCs under Section
48E of the Code for the installation of certain eligible solar power facilities owned for business purposes. Prior to the IRA, if construction
on the facility began before January 1, 2020, the amount of the ITC available was 30%, if construction began during 2020, 2021, or 2022
the amount of the ITC available was 26%, with additional step downs in later years. Projects placed in service before January 1, 2022
are still set at 26%. However, with the enactment of the IRA, solar power facilities installed between 2022 and 2032 will receive a 30%
ITC of the cost of installed equipment for ten years so long as the facilities meet wage and apprenticeship requirements or are less
than 1 MWac, which will decrease to 26% for solar power facilities installed in 2033 and to 22% for solar power facilities installed
in 2034; and for those solar power facilities installed in 2022, the ITC has increased from 22% to 30% if the ITC has not yet been claimed.
The prevailing wage rates also must be paid for alteration and repair during the 5 years after a project is placed in service.
Pursuant
to the IRA, certain ITC projects are eligible for a 10% domestic content bonus so long as the facilities meet wage and apprenticeship
requirements, if all the steel and iron are produced in the United States and at least 40% of the facility is produced in the United
States, which domestic content percentage requirement increases for facilities that start construction after 2024 and eventually reach
55% for projects which begin construction in 2027 or later.
Pursuant
to the IRA, certain ITC projects are eligible for an additional 10% or 20% energy community bonus so long as the facilities meet wage
and apprenticeship requirements, and if the facility owner applies for and receives an environmental justice allocation from the Internal
Revenue Service (the “IRS”). Solar (and certain related storage) facilities that are less than 5 MWac that are either located
in a low-income community or on Indian land, or are part of a qualified low-income residential building project or a qualified low-income
economic benefit project qualify. For example, qualified low-income economic benefit projects can receive a 20% bonus if low-income households
receive at least one-half of the financial benefits. The IRS provided taxpayers guidance in Notice 2023-18 for determining the requirements
for allocation of the ITC bonus. The IRA also included additional incentives, including in relation to stand-alone storage and claiming
interconnection costs under the ITC in certain situations, and the ability for ITC recipients to directly transfer such ITCs.
In
addition to the incentives at the federal government, more than half of the states, and many local jurisdictions, have established property
tax incentives for renewable energy systems that include exemptions, exclusions, abatements and credits. Approximately thirty states
and the District of Columbia have adopted a renewable portfolio standard (and approximately eight other states have some voluntary goal)
that requires regulated utilities to procure a specified percentage of total electricity delivered in the state from eligible renewable
energy sources, such as solar energy systems, by a specified date. To prove compliance with such mandates, utilities must surrender solar
renewable energy credits to the applicable authority. While there are numerous federal, state and local government incentives that benefit
our business, some adverse interpretations or determinations of new and existing laws can have a negative impact on our business.
Manufacturing
and Supply
NextNRG
plans to purchase equipment, including solar panels, inverters, batteries, wireless charging station components from a variety of manufacturers
and suppliers. If one or more of the suppliers and manufacturers that NextNRG relies upon to meet anticipated demand reduces or ceases
production, it may be difficult to quickly identify and qualify alternatives on acceptable terms. In addition, equipment prices may increase
in the coming years, or not decrease at the rates it has historically experienced, due to tariffs or other factors.

Mobile
Fueling
NextNRG’s
Mobile Fueling solution offers on-demand and subscription-based fuel delivery services, catering to individual consumers, fleets, marine,
and other specialty markets. Leveraging digital technology and GPS-based systems, this service responds to the increasing preference
for home and workplace product deliveries. Particularly, our fleet services are experiencing significant growth, providing a streamlined,
efficient fueling option that allows commercial operators to optimize operations and reduce downtime. This innovation not only meets
the modern demand for convenience but also aligns with the broader shift towards more agile and responsive service models in today’s
economy.
NextNRG’s app-based platform conveniently brings
the gas station to customers with a growing fleet of Mobile Fueling Trucks. NextNRG’s business verticals align to the high-use,
high demand cases in vehicle operations. These are; individual CONSUMERS, COMMERCIAL entities and SPECIALTY vehicle markets.
For
CONSUMERS, NextNRG services individual “consumer” customers directly at their residences or places of work. In
the consumer vertical, NextNRG customers sign-up for NextNRG services individually, or as part of an employer which offers discounted
NextNRG services to their employees as an employee benefit while at work at offices, in office parks or on-job locations. Fuel deliveries
are completed at optimal times during the day for ‘at work’ customers or at night for residential deliveries.
In
the COMMERCIAL vertical, NextNRG provides vital fuel delivery services to commercial fleets of delivery trucks, rental cars,
livery operators, and job sites. Deliveries for the commercial vertical are completed during down-times, when the majority of commercial
vehicles are at designated locations. This method also allows NextNRG to complete multiple fills at once, while providing the commercial
customers the benefit of a fleet of fueled vehicles ready for operations on any given morning.
In
the SPECIALTY vertical, NextNRG adapts to each market based on the type of vehicles that can benefit from “at location”
fuel delivery. In NextNRG’s home market, Florida, their “specialty” vertical services hundreds of boat owners at
their homes or at marinas at which they are docked. NextNRG’s specialty market also includes equipment rental companies, construction
job sites, agricultural operations, motorsports events and recreational vehicle grounds.
NextNRG
Model – Resolving Pain Points in the Consumer and Commercial Fuel Customer Markets
NextNRG’s
experience in this market indicates that the legacy gas station model is ripe for disruption specifically by a model which works to address
major issues with the status of the industry, such as:
●
Convenience.
People find going to the gas station inconvenient and time consuming. Leaving the house a little late in the morning on an empty
tank means arriving late to the office or stopping for gas on your way home after a long day is inconvenient. This number does not
include the time it takes to drive to and from the gas station. Our solution saves our customers valuable time and shaves time off
our customers’ commutes to and from work. Our Mobile Fueling Truck brings a convenient fueling solution that is disrupting
the current industry by saving our customers valuable time and helping them to avoid the stress of not having a full tank of gas.
14
●
Fleet
Driver Expense. When fleet managers send their vehicles to the gas station to fill up, they are paying for: (i) the driver to
take the vehicle to the gas station; (ii) the gas the vehicle consumes on the way to and from the gas station; (iii) wear and tear
on the vehicle being driven to the gas station; and (iv) indirectly the downtime for the vehicle being driven to the gas station,
which usually will be during the regular working day due to the fact that an employee must take the vehicle there. When fleet managers
use NextNRG, we fill up the vehicles after hours so there is no downtime during the regular working day.
●
Fleet
Driver Fraud. 2025 studies show that U.S. commercial fleets lose 15-25% of their fuel budget to theft, fraud, or unauthorized
usage annually. With fuel often accounting for approximately 25% of total operating costs, even modest leaks quickly become major
losses. NextNRG’s solution tackles fraud head on by taking the drivers out of the equation. NextNRG brings the fuel directly
to our customers’ fleets and reduces the risk of driver related fuel fraud.
●
Safety
Concerns. Gas stations have a reputation of being unsafe locations. This reputation developed due to the many robberies and assaults
that occur at gas stations. According to FBI crime data, 2% of all violent crimes occurred at gas stations.
Violent crimes such as robberies and assaults are commonplace at gas stations because often, customers need to exit their vehicles
in remote and secluded areas, at late hours, with improper lighting and security at the location. NextNRG’s Mobile Fueling
Trucks address these safety issues by bringing the fuel to the consumer, who, from the comfort of their home or office can order
a fill-up via our app without even going outdoors. The customer simply needs to place the order and leave the gas tank access open
on their vehicle.
●
Fraud
Concerns. Gas stations are hubs for fraud issues. These issues primarily emanate from gas stations employing mostly old-fashioned
magnetic strip credit card readers. Gas stations experience hundreds of millions of dollars in credit card fraud annually. NextNRG’s platform does not store any customer credit card
data and uses the latest in credit card processing technology to verify cards and secure customers’ payments to ensure authenticity
of purchases.
●
Addressing
Environmental Concerns. We can never eliminate our environmental exposure completely. However, by delivering fuel to areas with
high vehicle density, we are lowering the environmental impact by reducing the number of separate trips our customers make to refuel
their vehicles. Since NextNRG sources direct from oil companies on a daily basis, we have a very high turnover of inventory and do
not store our fuel in underground tanks. All our tanks go through a rigorous annual inspection, plus they are visually inspected
before and after every shift to ensure proper fuel storage and no loss of vapors. A rapid turnover of inventory and daily tank inspections
are not available for underground tanks used by retail gas stations.
●
Sanitary and Touchless. According to a study
conducted by the Kymberly Clark Group, the gas station pump handle is the dirtiest surface Americans touch on their way to work. Also,
according to a recent study conducted by busbudy.com, gas station pumps have 11,000 times more bacteria than the common household toilet
seat, while pump station buttons contain 15,000 times more. In addition to being germ and bacteria infested, a recent article by njtvonline.org
highlighted the near impossibility of social distancing at self-service gas stations, further exacerbating the health risks of going to
the gas station.

Mobile
Fueling Product Offerings
We
provide fuel delivery via our fleet of trucks in Florida, Texas, California, Arizona, Oklahoma, Tennessee and Michigan. Our goal is
to service all our customers across all our lines of business at predictable locations during vehicle downtimes. Our fleet currently
includes 145 trucks that we utilize to deliver fuel directly to our customers. We have three major lines of business and to
our knowledge we are the only company in the space which fuels all three verticals :
1.
SERVICING CONSUMERS AT HOME AND AT WORK
We
offer residential fueling services to customers who can request a fuel delivery through our app and have fuel delivered directly to their
vehicle, from the comfort of their home or apartment building, while they go about their night. We offer convenient weekly schedules
to our residential customers, so they can live with the comfort of knowing that they will never be without a full tank of gas when they
need it. Additionally, our competitive pricing keeps our residential customers from having to travel out of their neighborhood for lower
gas prices. Our residential customers currently pay a delivery fee of $6.99 for each delivery or they have the option to pay $14.99 per
month for unlimited deliveries. We may increase these prices in the future. We currently offer delivery to residential customers in Miami-Dade,
Broward, and Palm Beach counties. Our service is a great new amenity for condominiums, which has been widely used by residents of the
buildings we service and has been enhancing residents’ experience.
Through
entering agreements with local and national businesses, we work directly with businesses human resource departments to offer employee
perks, and fuel employees’ cars while they are working. This is a creative benefit for employers to offer, enabling their employees
to have their cars filled, stress free. Additionally, we work directly with the landlords of corporate office parks to bring the amenity
of NextNRG to their tenants. Our corporate employee fueling is currently done at competitive prices with no delivery fee. Our corporate
office park solution offers benefits to employers and NextNRG. Benefits to employers include: (i) a new perk to offer their employees;
and (ii) happier employees who do not have to waste precious time going to the gas station. Benefits to NextNRG include: (i) multiple
deliveries at one location creates efficiencies and cuts operating costs; (ii) the employers serve as “influencers” which
reduces our marketing costs for each location; and (iii) push-marketing by the employers also results in more residential consumer fills.
2.
SERVICING COMMERCIAL ENTITIES
We
partner with and offer national and local businesses who operate fleets an alternative solution for fueling their fleet to reduce the
businesses operational costs and improve fleet efficiency. Our solution for fleets helps businesses: (i) save money spent on expensive
gas stations; (ii) save money on paying employees to go to gas stations; (iii) eliminate unnecessary wear and tear to Company fleet vehicles
on trips to the gas station; (iv) better monitor their fuel consumption; (v) eliminate employee mistakes (putting regular gas into a
diesel engine); and (vi) prevent theft by employees (customers have reported instances where it was months before they realized their
employee was making unauthorized charges on their fleet card).
16
3.
SERVICING SPECIALTY MARKETS
NextNRG
delivers fuel directly to other, market-specific personal and commercial vehicles and tanks. In our home market, the prevalence of boats
and boat owners was the first specialty market we developed, particular to the south Florida area which is the base of our services.
Marina fuel stations are some of the highest priced in the country. We offer low prices and pre-scheduling so our marine customers can
get affordable fuel whenever they need it. The same is true for the markets which we have targeted to enter. In these markets we find
similar, market-specific vehicles which our future customers use for; construction or agricultural purposes, personal or recreational
vehicle use, or sporting events where a large concentration of vehicles can be serviced at specific locations.
Customers
In
addition to our individual, residential customers, we also have structured relationships with property management companies and builders
who co-market our services as a benefit to their residents and allow our trucks to enter their communities to fill vehicle owners at
their single family homes, condominiums or apartments.
Our
commercial vertical has serviced the fleets for many national and local businesses, such as a leading national delivery company, a leading
national grocer, a leading OEM, as well as a leading equipment rental company.
In
our specialty market vertical, we service hundreds of boats at various marinas across Miami-Dade and Broward Counties, as well as boats
at customers’ homes. We are a preferred delivery partner for a mobile application with thousands of boat-owner users.
Software
Systems, IT, User Interface and Experience
Our
software systems provide us with logistical and cost saving efficiencies that allow us to forecast the need for truckloads of fuel to
effectively service clusters of customers in a specific area or zip code. At the front end of our system, we employ an app-based approach
that provides all our customers with an easy-to-engage user interface and ordering system. Customers are able to select the times and
locations of their on-demand or routinely scheduled fills and manage their account on their mobile device or desktop system.
17
In
the back end of our system, we aggregate customer orders based on their location and expected gallon demand for their vehicles. The aggregation
of customer orders based on these variables triggers a truckload fill of one of our mobile tankers designated for each of the customer
orders our system generates.
Our
software and IT systems have been developed and customized in-house to provide cost-saving efficiencies which produce higher margins
than traditional gas station fuel margins.
We
are planning to expand our software capabilities using AI and machine learning algorithms that will, among other things, automatically
generate outbound “fill reminder” communications to customers based on their recorded usage amounts and time intervals.
Mobile
Fueling Application
The
EzFill Mobile Application has been designed for iPhone and Android devices with our customers and convenience in mind.
Sign
Up: The EzFill App provides a quick and easy registration process.
Profile
Management: The EzFill App provides easy profile management where users can seamlessly update personal information, such as: vehicle
details and location, this way we are able to provide the best services to our customers.

feature enables our customers to request their delivery for a specific time window, this ensures they can schedule their fill up at convenient
times when they would be busy attending other tasks and their car is idle.
Push
Notifications: The EzFill App has a push notification feature. This allows us to keep customers informed of all the activities associated
with the service they have requested. We also use it to keep our customers updated with recent offers and discounts, which helps to boost
customer satisfaction and promotes our business.
Transaction
History: The EzFill App offers our customers the ability to always view their transaction history. This gives our customers an option
to check the previous fuel delivery requests and bills.
Mobile
Fueling Market Opportunity
Information
provided by Statista indicates that there were an estimated 298 million registered cars in the United States in 2025.
According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration, in 2023 the U.S. used approximately 375 million gallons of fuel per
day. NextNRG wants to take advantage of the growing number of U.S. drivers by
bringing the gas directly to the consumers. We feel that our service solves many problems posed by the
legacy gas station. NextNRG’s mobile fueling solution presents a new way for Americans to get gas: at home, at the office, wherever, on demand.
The
on-demand market continues to grow. On-demand companies are operating and growing in the:
●
Trucking
& Delivery Services
●
Food
Delivery Services
●
Beauty
Services
●
Housekeeping
Services
●
Healthcare
Services
●
Laundry
Services
NextNRG
believes that the on-demand market will continue to grow and this growth will benefit its fuel delivery model.
We
believe our market opportunity is to expand into major metropolitan statistical areas (“MSAs”) across the continental U.S.
with sufficient concentration of business and residential customers. We want to be in locations where people rely heavily on their personal
cars to get places.
19
As
we expand to a new market, we plan to employ a strategy that has helped us build a strong base of business in our existing market. The
strategy we developed begins with sales in our fleet category to build a base of business in the target city, while developing and strengthening
our delivery operations. Next, after launch, we secure corporate and landlord agreements to allow us to begin marketing our services
to their employees and tenants. These agreements include fueling at large office parks during daytime hours and fueling at residential
buildings during nighttime hours.
We
generate business through establishing corporate and landlord partnerships, we then leverage companies’ internal communication
channels to market directly to their employees or residential tenants. By implementing our digital marketing campaigns as well as placement
of our content throughout residential and corporate facilities, we are able to develop greater brand awareness. We coordinate with our
partners to set up organic marketing efforts with our brand ambassadors to help increase recognition and assist users with downloading
the app and setting up their accounts.
Competition
Our mobile fuel delivery service competes with other local fuel delivery companies and gas stations. We differentiate ourselves
by allowing our customers to request our service via a mobile app and delivering the fuel directly to the end user. We use our innovative
technology and excellent concierge service to offer convenient fueling solutions to all our vertical markets at different times of the
day to maximize the efficiency of each mobile fueling truck. To our knowledge, there are no significant mobile fueling competitors in
the markets we currently serve.
We
distinguish ourselves from our competitors by:
●
Prioritizing
our customers’ experience and satisfaction;
●
Streamlining
our customers ordering experience;
●
Rigorously
vetting and training our drivers;
●
Providing
the latest in scheduling, GPS technology, and payment systems;
●
Offering
competitive pricing in the zip codes which we service;
●
Providing
all our customers with certified, accurate reports and detailed invoices.

Corporate
Information
NextNRG, Inc. (formerly known as EzFill Holdings,
Inc.) was incorporated on April 20, 2016, in the State of Florida. EzFill-FL, LLC was established on July 27, 2016 in the State of Florida.
The assets of EzFill-FL, LLC, constituting the mobile fueling business, were acquired as of April 9, 2019 by EzFill Holdings, Inc., which
was incorporated on March 28, 2019 in the State of Delaware.
On August 10, 2023, the Company, the members (the
“Members”) of Next Charging LLC (“Next Charging”) and Michael Farkas, as the representative of the Members, entered
into an Exchange Agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to acquire from the Members 100%
of the membership interests of Next Charging (the “Membership Interests”) in exchange for up to 40,000,000 shares of common
stock. Subsequently, Next Charging converted to a corporation organized in the State of Nevada named NextNRG Holding Corp. (“Next
Holding”) effective as of March 1, 2024 (the “Conversion”), which Conversion continued the existence of the prior entity
in the new corporate form and the prior members of Next Charging remained as shareholders of Next Holding.
On June 11, 2024, in order to reflect the Conversion,
the Company, all of the shareholders of Next Holding and Mr. Farkas as the representative of the Next Holding executed a second amended
and restated agreement to replace the Exchange Agreement in its entirety (the “Second Amended and Restated Exchange Agreement”).
Pursuant to the Second Amended and Restated Exchange Agreement, the Company agreed to acquire from the Next Holding 100% of the shares
of Next Holding in exchange for the issuance by the Company to the Next Holding shareholders of Company common stock.
On September 25, 2024, the Company and Mr. Farkas
entered into the second amendment to the Second Amended and Restated Exchange Agreement (“Second Amendment”) to change the
number of the Company’s common stock shares to be issued to the Next Holding shareholders by the Company in exchange for 100% of
the shares of Next Holding to 100,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.
The Second Amendment also provided that in the event
Next Holding completes the acquisition of STAT-EI, Inc. (“SEI” or “STAT”), prior to the closing, then 50,000,000
shares will vest on the closing date, and the remaining 50,000,000 shares will be subject to vesting or forfeiture (such shares subject
to vesting or forfeiture, the “Restricted Shares”). Next Holding completed the acquisition of SEI on January 19, 2024, and
thus 50,000,000 vested on that closing date. The remaining 50,000,000 restricted shares are subject to vesting or forfeiture. 25,000,000
of the 50,000,000 restricted shares will vest, if at all, upon the Company commercially deploying the third solar, wireless electric vehicle
charging, microgrid, and/or battery storage system (such systems as more specifically defined under the Second Amended and Restated Exchange
Agreement, as amended) and 25,000,000 of the 50,000,000 Restricted Shares will vest, if at all, upon the Company either reaching annual
revenues exceeding $100 million, the Company completing projects with deployment costs greater than $100 million, or the Company completing
a capital raise greater than $25 million.
21
Prior
to closing, the Company (i) increased the number of its authorized shares of common stock from 50,000,000 to 500,000,000, (ii) received
stockholder approval, (iii) received third-party consents, and (iv) ensured compliance with the rules and regulations of The Nasdaq Stock
Market.
On February 13, 2025, the closing of the transactions
contemplated by the Second Amended and Restated Exchange Agreement, as amended, was completed. Pursuant to the terms of the Second Amended
and Restated Exchange Agreement, as amended, the Company issued an aggregate of 100,000,000 shares of common stock in exchange for all
of the issued and outstanding common stock of Next Holding, and Next Holding became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.
On February 13, 2025, the Company changed its name
from EzFill Holdings, Inc. to NextNRG, Inc.

Promissory
Note, dated as of December 26, 2024.
On
December 26, 2024, the Company and Gad International Ltd. (the “Lender”) entered into a promissory note (the “Gad Note”)
for the sum of $2,500,000 (the “Loan”) to be used for the Company’s working capital needs, including without limitation
the purchase of equipment. Unless the Gad Note is otherwise accelerated or extended in accordance with the terms and conditions therein,
the balance of the Gad Note, along with accrued interest, will be due and payable in full on February 23, 2025. Further, the Company
agreed among other things to pay the Lender a commitment fee of $400,000 in consideration of the Loan, and an optional extension fee
of $200,000 for any month or part thereof in which the Company requests an additional 30-day extension to the Loan, upon the Lender’s
written consent. If any amount payable under the Loan is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration, or otherwise,
such overdue amount will bear interest at a rate of 21%. Additionally, the Company agreed to execute an irrevocable transfer instruction
with its transfer agent to issue $5,000,000 worth of shares of Company common stock to the Lender if the Gad Note is not repaid on or
before February 23, 2025. However, pursuant to an amendment to the Gad Note, dated January 15, 2025, between the Company and the Lender,
no shares of the Company can be issued without the Company first receiving shareholder approval. The Company has commenced the process
of obtaining shareholder approval and once the shareholder approval process is completed and the Company is authorized to issue the shares,
the Company will issue the shares. The Company shall take no action to impair, hinder or impede either the approval process or the issuance
of the shares in the event they become owed to Lender. Such shares of common stock will be valued based on the Nasdaq official closing
price for the Company’s common stock as of date of the issuance of the Gad Note. The note was extended to March 23, 2025, and in
exchange for the extension of the maturity date, the Company paid a fee of $200,000. The note was paid in full on March 26, 2025.
Promissory
Note, dated as of December 30, 2024.
On
December 30, 2024, the Company and NextNRG entered into a promissory note (the “December 30 Note”) for the sum of $330,000
to be used for the Company’s working capital needs, including without limitation the purchase of equipment. The unpaid principal
balance of the December 30 Note has a fixed rate of interest of 8% per annum. Unless the December 30 Note is otherwise accelerated or
extended in accordance with the terms and conditions therein, the balance of the December 30 Note, along with accrued interest, will
be due and payable in full on December 30, 2025. If the Company defaults on the December 30 Note, the unpaid principal and interest sums,
along with all other amounts payable, multiplied by 150% will be immediately due. Upon default, NextNRG will have the right to convert
all or any part of the outstanding and unpaid principal, interest, penalties, and all other amounts under the December 30 Note into fully
paid and non-assessable shares of the Company’s common stock. The conversion price shall equal the greater of the average VWAP
over the five trading day period prior to the conversion date; or $0.70 (the “Floor Price”). Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the conversion price shall not exceed the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market on the date
of the December 30 Note. The Company and NextNRG have agreed that the total cumulative number of common stock issued to Next under the
December 30 Note, together with all other transaction documents may not exceed the requirements of Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d) (“Nasdaq
19.99% Cap”), except that such limitation will not apply following shareholder approval. If the Company is unable to obtain shareholder
approval to issue common stock to NextNRG in excess of the Nasdaq 19.99% Cap, then any remaining outstanding balance of the December
