Winnipeg, MB, February 8, 2024 — EnerPure Inc. (“EnerPure” or the “Company”), a Manitoba cleantech company, is pleased to announce Rachel Carroll has been appointed as an independent member of its Board of Directors as the Company continues to grow and evolve. EnerPure has successfully developed and validated its patented process and technology through its Manitoba Pilot Plant. This technology efficiently recycles used motor oil into a superior marine fuel that exceeds the stringent IMO 2020 Regulations and the ISO 8217:2017 marine fuel standard. The Company has recycled over two million litres of used motor oil with sales to the world’s largest container shipping company.
Todd Habicht, CEO and Founder commented: “As EnerPure aims to broaden its reach by establishing new facilities across North America, the appointment of Ms. Carroll as an independent director is a strategic enhancement to its governance to support EnerPure’s objective of delivering twenty-one recycling plants in six years. This expansion is expected to remove approximately three-quarters of a million tonnes of greenhouse gases by 2029 and each plant is projected to yield an internal rate of return (IRR) of 43%.”
Rachel Carroll commented, “EnerPure’s innovative recycling plants are crucial in the maritime industry’s efforts to reduce its carbon footprint. EnerPure’s process not only produces marine fuel with lower carbon intensity but also recycles used motor oil, tackling a significant environmental concern. I am honoured to join the board, where I look forward to supporting EnerPure’s growth and steadfast commitment to environmentally-conscious technology.”

About the Company
“We recycle Used Motor Oil (UMO) to reduce GHG while producing a lower carbon-intensive marine fuel.”
Globally over 26 billion litres of UMO1 are generated each year with approximately 80% of global waste oil being either burnt or dumped. EnerPure has developed a patented process and technology that solves this problem. Based on proven technology, but deployed on a scale not seen before, our micro-scale recycling plants can solve this problem due to its small footprint and low capital requirements.
Our technology has been proven via our full-scale pilot & demonstration plant and is now ready for deployment to start building a truly sustainable energy system within our generation, while preserving the global economy. Our marine fuel product is already in high demand due to meeting the exacting standards of the ISO 8217:2017 marine fuel standard while delivering a carbon intensity that is 8-14% lower than marine fuel produced from crude oil.
1UMO is defined as any petroleum-based or synthetic lubricating oil that cannot be used for its original purpose due to contamination.
