Vancouver, B.C.– (October 7, 2025) – SHARC International Systems Inc. (CSE: SHRC) (FSE: IWIA) (OTCQB: INTWF) (“SHARC Energy” or the “Company”), the pioneer of Wastewater Energy Transfer (“WET”), co-hosted a standing-room-only panel discussion during Climate Week NYC. The panel, Reimagining Building Development: AI & Disruptive Technologies, was hosted at the HIGHMARK | Building Efficiency event space and brought together voices from government, labor, and innovation to explore how emerging approaches are reshaping the future of housing and infrastructure development.
The program opened with remarks from Alexander Gleason of the New York City Central Labor Council, AFL-CIO, who underscored the role of organized labor in driving a just transition to a low-carbon economy.
The featured panel included New York State Assemblywoman Michaelle Solages, Eric Chan (Rockrose Development), Kevin Appleby (RuhlTec), Emmanuel Heisenberg (ecoworks), and Aaron Miller (SHARC Energy), moderated by Silvia Khurrum (Con Edison). Panelists examined how disruptive approaches — from AI to prefabrication to wastewater energy transfer — can be scaled to create resilient, low-carbon buildings that improve affordability, drive workforce development, and deliver real benefits for communities.
“Wastewater energy is a smart, people-centered solution that reduces emissions, lowers costs, and advances New York’s climate goals. By turning an existing resource into clean energy, we can create healthier communities and more sustainable housing. Climate Week and this panel provide a great opportunity to highlight innovations like this and show how bold ideas can deliver real benefits for families today while securing a stronger future for tomorrow,” said Assemblywoman Solages.
In addition to the panel, the event convened a wide spectrum of voices critical to the future of New York’s built environment. Attendees included New York State Senator Jessica Ramos, Chair of the Senate Labor Committee; representatives of UA Plumbers Local 1, Steamfitters Local 638, and Laborers Local 79; and organizations such as the NYC Department of Environmental Protection (DEP), NYSERDA, the Building Decarbonization Coalition, Climate Jobs NY, and WE ACT for Environmental Justice. Together these perspectives connected policy and practice to advance solutions that support healthier homes, stronger communities, and a more affordable, sustainable future.
Building on the momentum of this Climate Week event and the Company’s growing exposure in New York State, SHARC Energy and its partners will continue engaging with policymakers, labor leaders, and innovators to accelerate the deployment of wastewater energy transfer and other innovative solutions that make buildings more sustainable, affordable, and resilient.
