    TGI Group Unveils the Future of Self-Sustaining Energy Hubs

    TGI Transforms Environmental Liabilities into Strategic Mineral and Energy Assets

    MIAMI, FL / ACCESS Newswire / December 22, 2025 / TGI SOLAR POWER GROUP (OTCMarkets:TSPG), a pioneer in sustainable technology research and environmental real estate development, along with its research arm TGI INSIGHTS, today unveiled a landmark strategic outlook: “Energy is Power, Power is Power: Navigating the Next Wave of Global Energy Sources.”

    The report signals a definitive “Great Decoupling” of water and energy, transforming the desalination plant from a massive energy consumer into a Circular Resource Hub-a facility that simultaneously produces fresh water, carbon-free power, and high-value battery minerals.

    Economic Impact: Traditional Desalination vs. TGI Integrated Hub

    The following table illustrates the shift from a single-revenue model (water sales) to a multi-commodity revenue model. By co-locating tire recycling and brine mining, the TGI Hub transforms “waste” into a series of high-margin products. TGI has gone into stragetic alliances with various companies from around theld enabling implementation of the following strategies, an additional information is forthcoming.

    Revenue Component

    Traditional RO Desalination

    TGI Integrated Hub (SMR + Pyrolysis)

    Economic Impact / Value Add

    Primary Product

    Fresh Water ($0.50-$1.20/m³)

    Fresh Water ($0.45-$0.90/m³)

    Lower OpEx: Waste heat from pyrolysis/SMR reduces electricity costs by 30-40%.

    Waste Stream A

    Brine (Environmental Liability)

    Brine Mining: Lithium, Magnesium, Potassium

    New Revenue: Brine minerals add an estimated $50M+ annual revenue per large plant.

    Waste Stream B

    N/A (Solid Waste)

    Tire Pyrolysis: TPO, rCB, Green Steel

    New Revenue: Turning “tipping fees” into Pyrolytic Oil (~$400/ton) and Carbon Black.

    Energy Profile

    High Grid Dependence (4-6 kWh/m³)

    Energy Surplus: Syngas + SMR Thermal

    Cost Neutrality: Plant becomes a net exporter of power or green hydrogen.

    Carbon Profile

    Carbon Intensive (Grid Mix)

    Net Negative / Carbon Neutral

    Tax Benefit: Avoids carbon taxes; eligible for high-value Carbon Credits.

    For decades, desalination was viewed as an environmental burden due to its high energy footprint. TGI INSIGHTS reports that by 2030, this model will be obsolete. By integrating Small Modular Reactors (SMRs), Advanced Geothermal Systems, and now Waste-to-Energy (W2E) Pyrolysis and Advanced Tire Pyrolysis, we are entering an era of “self-powering” water infrastructure.

    “We are no longer just making water,” states Samuel Epstein, CEO of TGI. “Through the integration of SMRs and Waste-to-Energy, we are mining the ocean for minerals while simultaneously cleaning the planet of solid waste. It is a self-sustaining loop where the waste of one process is the fuel for the next.”

    The 2026-2050 Energy Roadmap: Role of the Champions

    The future energy space will be a coordinated ecosystem rather than a competition between single sources. TGI INSIGHTS breaks down the transition into three phases:

    TGI VISION 1: 2026-2030 – The Era of Integration

    SMRs & Geothermal (The Clean Firm): These will replace fossil fuels as the “always-on” base for cities. SMRs provide the intense heat needed for water distillation, while Geothermal offers 24/7 uptime.

    Waste-to-Energy (The Circular Engine): Utilizing advanced pyrolysis (such as TGI’s tire-to-energy initiatives), urban waste is converted into syngas and thermal energy, providing a decentralized power source for desalination and hydrogen production.

    The Generators (Osmotic Power/PRO): Plants will use Pressure Retarded Osmosis (PRO) to generate electricity from salt gradients, reclaiming up to 15% of total energy needs.

    TGI VISION 2: 2030-2040 – The Rise of Chemical Fuels

    Green Ammonia & Hydrogen: Ultrapure water from desalination will feed high-capacity electrolyzers. Waste-to-Energy byproducts will serve as catalysts and feedstock for green chemical production, making Green Ammonia the primary “liquid fuel” for global shipping.

    TGI VISION 3: 2040-2050 – The “Infinite” Frontier

    Magnetic Resonance & Gravity Power: Tracking breakthroughs in Medium Frequency Magnetics and Gravity Energy Storage for near-lossless energy transfer.

    Future Energy Matrix: Ease of Integration & Scalability

  • Rocket CRM Announces Structured Developments in Marketing Automation Systems to Support Operational Consistency

    Rocket CRM Announces Structured Developments in Marketing Automation Systems to Support Operational Consistency

    Los Angeles, California – December 22, 2025 – PRESSADVANTAGE –

    Rocket CRM has announced continued development and refinement of its marketing automation system, reflecting broader changes in how organizations manage communication, engagement workflows, and data-driven coordination. The announcement outlines a structured approach to automation that emphasizes clarity, reliability, and process alignment rather than rapid experimentation or isolated campaign execution.

    According to Rocket CRM, marketing automation has evolved from a supplementary function into a core operational component for many organizations. As communication channels multiply and customer interactions become more distributed across platforms, businesses increasingly require systems that can manage timing, consistency, and relevance at scale. The company states that its marketing automation framework is designed to support these requirements by organizing workflows into repeatable, measurable, and maintainable structures.

    Rocket CRM’s marketing automation system

    The announcement explains that the foundation of Rocket CRM’s marketing automation system lies in centralized data management. Effective automation depends on accurate, up-to-date information that can be referenced consistently across campaigns and touchpoints. Rocket CRM notes that its system is structured to consolidate contact records, interaction histories, and engagement indicators into a unified environment. This consolidation reduces fragmentation and allows automation logic to operate on a stable data set rather than disconnected inputs.

    Another area addressed in the announcement is workflow design. Rocket CRM states that automation workflows are built around clearly defined triggers, conditions, and outcomes. These workflows are intended to reflect real operational processes, such as follow-up communication, lead qualification stages, internal notifications, and time-based outreach. By structuring automation around documented processes, organizations can reduce ambiguity and ensure that automated actions align with internal expectations and compliance requirements.

    The company highlights the importance of timing and sequencing within marketing automation. Automated communication that lacks proper sequencing can result in message overlap, delayed responses, or inconsistent user experiences. Rocket CRM explains that its system places emphasis on chronological logic, ensuring that messages, reminders, and internal alerts are delivered in a controlled order. This approach supports clearer communication flows and helps teams maintain oversight of automated interactions.

    Segmentation is also discussed as a critical component of the marketing automation system. Rocket CRM notes that broad, undifferentiated automation can reduce effectiveness and create operational noise. To address this, the system allows segmentation based on behavioral data, engagement patterns, lifecycle stages, and custom attributes. This structured segmentation enables organizations to align automated actions with specific audience contexts while maintaining consistency across larger datasets.

    The announcement further outlines Rocket CRM’s approach to multi-channel coordination. Modern marketing automation often spans email, messaging, task creation, and internal notifications. Rocket CRM states that its system is designed to coordinate these channels within a single workflow framework. Rather than treating each channel as an isolated function, the automation system aligns actions across channels to reduce duplication and ensure coherent communication sequences.

    Compliance and governance considerations are also addressed. Rocket CRM acknowledges that automated communication must operate within regulatory and organizational boundaries, particularly regarding consent, data handling, and communication frequency. The marketing automation system incorporates configurable controls that allow organizations to define limits, approval steps, and exclusion criteria. These controls help ensure that automation supports operational integrity rather than introducing unmanaged risk.

    The announcement emphasizes the role of monitoring and evaluation within marketing automation. Rocket CRM explains that automation systems must provide visibility into performance, execution accuracy, and workflow behavior. The platform includes structured reporting mechanisms that allow teams to review automation outcomes, identify delays or errors, and refine logic over time. This feedback loop supports continuous improvement without requiring disruptive system changes.

    Another topic addressed is the relationship between automation and human oversight. Rocket CRM notes that effective marketing automation does not eliminate the need for human decision-making but rather reallocates effort toward higher-level analysis and strategy. The system is designed to allow teams to intervene, pause workflows, or adjust parameters when conditions change. This balance ensures that automation remains adaptive rather than rigid.

    Scalability is highlighted as a practical consideration. As organizations grow, their communication volume, audience complexity, and operational requirements often increase. Rocket CRM states that its marketing automation framework is structured to scale without requiring complete redesign. Modular workflows, reusable logic components, and centralized data structures allow organizations to expand automation coverage while maintaining consistency.

    The announcement also discusses integration with other operational tools. Marketing automation often intersects with sales processes, customer support systems, and internal task management. Rocket CRM explains that its system is designed to integrate with related functions within the CRM environment, reducing the need for duplicate data entry or parallel tracking systems. This integration supports smoother transitions between automated and manual processes.

    Documentation and transparency are identified as essential elements of sustainable automation. Rocket CRM notes that complex automation systems can become difficult to manage without clear documentation. The platform encourages structured documentation of workflows, triggers, and dependencies, allowing teams to understand system behavior and make informed adjustments. This approach supports continuity even as personnel or organizational priorities change.

    The company also addresses the importance of testing and validation. Before automation workflows are deployed at scale, they must be evaluated under different scenarios to identify unintended outcomes. Rocket CRM states that its system supports staged testing, allowing organizations to review automation behavior in controlled environments. This reduces the likelihood of errors affecting live operations.

    The announcement places Rocket CRM’s marketing automation developments within the broader trend of operational standardization. As organizations seek greater predictability and accountability in their communication processes, structured automation systems provide a framework for managing complexity. Rocket CRM emphasizes that its focus remains on enabling organizations to implement automation that supports long-term operational goals rather than short-term activity metrics.

    Rocket CRM concludes that marketing automation will continue to evolve alongside changes in communication norms, regulatory frameworks, and organizational structures. The company states that its ongoing development efforts will prioritize stability, transparency, and adaptability, ensuring that automation systems remain aligned with real-world operational needs. As automation becomes increasingly embedded in day-to-day workflows, Rocket CRM aims to support organizations in maintaining clarity, control, and consistency across their marketing operations.

A nurse told us, ‘You’re in the right place. Difficult and complex is what we do here every day.’ That moment changed everything for our family,” said Dustin Mundorf,RICP®, founder of Mundorf Wealth Management and host of the gala. “Today, Duke is a happy, thriving six-year-old, and we are dedicated to giving back to the institution that delivered our family a miracle. Through this event and our ongoing commitment to donate ten percent of every financial planning fee to the Heart Center, we hope to help other families in need receive the same life-saving care.”

    This commitment extends beyond the Mundorf family’s personal giving. Through its “Give with HEART” approach, Mundorf Wealth Management helps clients incorporate charitable giving and legacy planning into their financial journeys-turning every client’s financial plan into an opportunity to meaningfully support the causes they care about most.

  • RestoPros of South Kansas City Shares Friendly Fire Safety Guidelines for Holiday Season

    RestoPros of South Kansas City Shares Friendly Fire Safety Guidelines for Holiday Season

    OVERLAND PARK, KS – December 22, 2025 – PRESSADVANTAGE –

    RestoPros of South Kansas City, a leading restoration services provider, has released comprehensive fire safety recommendations to help homeowners protect their properties during the holiday season, when residential fire incidents typically increase by 30 percent according to the National Fire Protection Association.

    The company’s safety initiative addresses common holiday fire hazards including decorative lighting, cooking activities, heating equipment, and candle usage. With decades of experience responding to fire damage emergencies, the restoration specialists recognize the importance of preventive measures during this high-risk period.

    “Having responded to countless fire damage situations over our 30 years of combined industry experience, we understand that prevention is always preferable to restoration,” said Ryan Ouweleen, spokesperson for RestoPros of South Kansas City. “The holiday season brings unique fire risks into homes, from overloaded electrical circuits to unattended cooking, and we want to help our community stay safe during this festive time.”

    The safety guidelines emphasize proper maintenance of holiday decorations, including regular inspection of light strings for frayed wires or broken bulbs, keeping live Christmas trees adequately watered, and maintaining a three-foot clearance between heat sources and decorative materials. Kitchen safety remains particularly critical, as cooking fires represent the leading cause of residential fires year-round and spike significantly during holiday gatherings.

    Electrical safety considerations include avoiding daisy-chaining power strips, using only lights approved for their intended environment, and turning off all decorative lighting before leaving home or retiring for the evening. The company also stresses the importance of maintaining functional smoke detectors and having an evacuation plan that all household members understand.

    Space heater usage requires special attention during colder months, with proper placement away from combustible materials and regular maintenance checks essential for safe operation. Fireplace safety, including annual chimney inspections and proper disposal of ashes, represents another crucial consideration for homeowners.

    “While we stand ready to provide water damage restoration and fire damage services whenever needed, our primary goal is helping families avoid these emergencies altogether,” added Ouweleen. “Simple precautions can prevent devastating losses and ensure everyone enjoys a safe holiday season.”

    The timing of this safety initiative reflects national statistics showing that December and January consistently rank among the highest months for residential fire incidents. Candle fires alone peak in December, with holiday decorations involved in approximately 790 home fires annually.

    RestoPros of South Kansas City provides comprehensive restoration services throughout the Overland Park area and surrounding communities, including water damage, fire and smoke damage, mold remediation, and storm damage restoration. The company operates around the clock, offering emergency response services and assistance with insurance claims. As an Institute of Inspection Cleaning and Restoration Certification (IICRC) certified provider, the company maintains strict adherence to industry guidelines and safety protocols. The restoration specialists combine technical expertise with a commitment to helping property owners recover from disasters and, when possible, prevent them through education and awareness initiatives.

The practice, based in New Braunfels, Texas, has enhanced its microsurgical protocols and patient care processes to better serve patients throughout Texas, Louisiana, Oklahoma, and beyond.

    The expansion comes as more men nationwide seek vasectomy reversal options due to life changes such as remarriage, evolving family planning goals, or decisions to expand their families. Dr. Mark Hickman, a microsurgical surgeon with over 26 years of experience, has performed thousands of successful reversal procedures using advanced techniques that significantly improve success rates.

    “The demand for vasectomy reversals has grown substantially as surgical techniques have advanced and success rates have improved,” said Dr. Mark Hickman, founder and lead surgeon. “Our expanded services allow us to provide comprehensive care to more patients while maintaining the highest standards of microsurgical precision and patient support.”

    The practice specializes in microsurgical repair of the vas deferens, utilizing powerful operating microscopes and fine nylon sutures to achieve precise alignment and watertight closure. This meticulous approach creates optimal conditions for restored fertility following the vasectomy reversal procedure.

    To support patients traveling from outside the immediate area, the practice has enhanced its coordination services. These include assistance with scheduling and information about local accommodations in New Braunfels. The practice also provides extensive educational resources, including frequently asked questions and patient testimonials, helping prospective patients understand the procedure and recovery process.

    The expansion includes improved consultation services, with free consultations available for men considering the procedure. During these consultations, patients can discuss their specific situations and learn about the surgical process, recovery expectations, and success rates based on individual factors.

    The practice offers two comprehensive surgical options designed to meet different patient needs and preferences. The first option includes local anesthesia with oral sedation, while the second provides IV sedation administered by a board-certified anesthesiologist. Both options feature all-inclusive pricing structures with no hidden fees, making the procedure affordable for patients seeking fertility restoration.

    “We understand that choosing to undergo a vasectomy reversal represents a significant decision for our patients and their families,” noted Dr. Hickman. “Our expanded services ensure that every patient receives personalized attention and comprehensive support throughout their journey toward restored fertility.”

  • Worksport Launches Rivian R1T Pickup Truck Compatible Cover, SOLIS Solar Tonneau

    Worksport Launches Rivian R1T Pickup Truck Compatible Cover, SOLIS Solar Tonneau

    SOLIS Truck Mounted Folding Solar Array Now Available to Order for Rivian Owners, Shipping Expected Mid-January

    WEST SENECA, NY / ACCESS Newswire / December 16, 2025 / Worksport Ltd. (NASDAQ:WKSP) (“Worksport” or the “Company”), a U.S.-based innovator in advanced manufacturing, clean energy technologies and automotive accessories, serving both consumer and reseller markets, today announced the launch of its SOLIS Truck Mounted Folding Solar Array specifically designed for and compatible with the Rivian R1T electric pickup truck. The new Rivian R1T solar tonneau cover model is available to order now, with initial customer shipments expected by mid-January.

    Worksport SOLIS is a truck mounted folding solar array (truck bed cover) with integrated solar panels that turn a pickup truck into a mobile power source. For Rivian R1T owners, the SOLIS cover delivers approximately 250 watts of on-board solar generating capacity, allowing users to generate renewable power while parked, at a job site, or off grid. The SOLIS application required significant R&D efforts by Worksport’s design team so the SOLIS could be mounted on truck beds with and without existing factory power retractable tonneau covers. This launch expands Worksport’s SOLIS lineup, which is already available for many of the most popular pickup trucks on the road today.

    The SOLIS solar tonneau cover can be paired with Worksport COR, the Company’s portable battery and mobile power system. COR is a compact, modular energy storage unit designed to store solar energy and deliver clean, silent power when and where it is needed. With SOLIS generating over 250 watts, a single COR battery can be charged in approximately four hours of full sunlight. Once charged, COR can be used to power tools, lighting, electronics, camping equipment, emergency devices, and other everyday energy needs, giving Rivian owners greater flexibility and independence.

    “Launching SOLIS for the Rivian R1T is an exciting step for Worksport and for the growing EV pickup market,” said Steven Rossi, Chief Executive Officer of Worksport. “We believe Rivian customers are tech forward, outdoor focused, and energy conscious. SOLIS and COR together give them a practical way to generate and store clean power directly from their truck. This is exactly the type of real-world innovation we are building at Worksport.”

    While the current SOLIS system is not yet integrated to directly charge EV batteries, Worksport intends to work with OEM manufacturers in the future to enable direct vehicle charging as electric pickup trucks continue to gain market adoption. Management believes OEM collaboration represents a meaningful long-term opportunity as consumers increasingly look for energy generating vehicles and integrated power solutions.

    The launch of a SOLIS cover model compatible with the Rivian R1T comes as Worksport continues to deliver strong operating momentum. The Company has reported record revenue growth, expanding gross margins, and increasing production efficiency throughout 2025. Management believes the growing demand for SOLIS and COR, combined with Worksport’s core tonneau cover business, positions the Company for continued growth as clean energy and EV related accessories move further into the mainstream.

    The SOLIS cover for the Rivian R1T is available to order now through Worksport channels. Additional vehicle compatibility and future integrations are expected as Worksport continues to expand its clean energy product ecosystem.

  • SMX and Partners Push Gold Compliance Out of the Back Office and Into the Supply Chain

    SMX and Partners Push Gold Compliance Out of the Back Office and Into the Supply Chain

    NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / December 22, 2025 / For much of its history, compliance in the gold industry lived at the end of the process. Gold was sourced, refined, and traded first. Documentation followed. Audits came later. Trust was assumed unless challenged.

    That model is no longer holding.

    Across global gold markets, regulatory expectations have moved upstream. Responsible sourcing, AML, and ESG frameworks now demand proof that originates at the point of extraction and persists through every handoff. Compliance is no longer something that can be reconstructed after the fact. It must be engineered directly into operations.

    SMX (NASDAQ:SMX) is serving that reality. More importantly, delivering it.

    Deals on Top of Deals to Create a New Gold Standard

    Following its engagement with the Dubai Multi Commodities Centre, SMX has moved quickly to deploy its physical-to-digital authentication framework inside live supply chains through initiatives with Bougainville Refinery Ltd and digital identity provider FinGo. In parallel, the company continues to advance its majority-owned trueGold platform, designed to preserve identity, provenance, and compliance through refining and trade.

    The common thread is clear. SMX is treating compliance not as a reporting obligation, but as operational infrastructure. The very thing that global industries are no longer just asking for, but increasingly required to implement.

    Traditional compliance systems struggle because they sit downstream from risk. Paper documentation can be altered. Digital records can reflect assumptions rather than facts. By the time discrepancies surface, material has already moved, been aggregated, or entered the market.

    SMX addresses this failure at the material level. Its molecular authentication technology embeds an invisible, persistent identity directly into gold itself. That identity survives refinement and downstream processing, enabling verification at multiple operational checkpoints without reliance on reconciliation or manual intervention. With SMX, compliance becomes continuous rather than episodic.

    Why SMX Has Become So Relevant

    Gold’s highest-risk moments occur during handoffs. Aggregation points. Refinery intake. Export authorization. These are operational events, not accounting exercises. Systems that activate only during audits arrive too late.

    trueGold extends this approach by framing verified gold as an operationally compliant asset rather than a post-hoc certified one. Gold that carries persistent identity and auditable history is easier to finance, easier to clear, and easier to accept across jurisdictions tightening their sourcing standards.

    The human dimension of compliance is equally critical. Many of gold’s failures stem not from material substitution, but from unverifiable actors. Shared credentials. Informal identification. Gaps between who is recorded and who actually handled the gold.

    FinGo’s biometric digital identity infrastructure closes that gap. By enabling verified attribution of actions and custody changes to real individuals aligned with KYC and AML expectations, FinGo allows compliance to operate where it breaks down, at the human interface. This is especially relevant in remote and infrastructure-limited environments, where traditional identity systems are unreliable or absent.

    When combined, SMX and FinGo shift compliance from policy to practice. Each custody event links a verified human to a verified asset at a specific moment. Records no longer describe what should have happened. They document what did happen.

    Bougainville Refinery Ltd provides the operational context that makes this shift meaningful. As a licensed refinery and exporter, BRL operates at the convergence point of sourcing, compliance, and international market access. Embedding identity infrastructure into refinery and export workflows demonstrates how compliance can be enforced continuously without slowing trade.

    Not an Exercise, a Construction Project

    The key point is this. These actions are not theoretical. They represent a model for how jurisdictions and supply-chain operators can modernize compliance without relying on punitive enforcement or retroactive audits. By placing verification where gold is actually handled, compliance becomes a function of operations rather than paperwork.

    The broader implication is acceleration. Rather than waiting for regulators to mandate new systems, SMX is deploying infrastructure that anticipates where standards are heading. In markets where counterparties increasingly demand evidence instead of assurances, that positioning matters.

    Compliance is no longer a back-office function. It is becoming frontline infrastructure. And the companies building it into the physical reality of gold will shape how trust is enforced in the next phase of global precious metals trade.

    About SMX

    As global businesses face new and complex challenges relating to carbon neutrality and meeting new governmental and regional regulations and standards, SMX is able to offer players along the value chain access to its marking, tracking, measuring and digital platform technology to transition more successfully to a low-carbon economy.

    Forward-Looking Statements

    This information contains forward looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These statements are based on current expectations, estimates, forecasts, and assumptions regarding future events involving SMX (NASDAQ: SMX), its technologies, its partnership activities, and its development of molecular marking systems for recycled PET and other materials. Forward looking statements are not historical facts. They involve risks, uncertainties, and factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied.

    Forward looking statements in this editorial include, but are not limited to, expectations regarding the integration of SMX’s molecular markers into U.S. recycling markets; the potential for FDA-compliant markers to enable recycled PET to enter food-grade and other regulated applications; the scalability of SMX solutions across diverse global supply chains; anticipated adoption of identity-based verification systems by manufacturers, recyclers, regulators, or brand owners; the potential economic impact of turning recycled plastics into tradeable or monetizable assets; the expected performance of SMX’s Plastic Cycle Token or other digital verification instruments; and the belief that molecular-level authentication may influence pricing, compliance, sustainability reporting, or financial strategies used within the plastics sector.

    These forward looking statements are also subject to assumptions regarding regulatory developments; market demand for authenticated recycled content; the pace of corporate adoption of traceability technology; global economic conditions; supply chain constraints; evolving environmental policies; and general industry behavior relating to sustainability commitments and recycling mandates. Risks include, but are not limited to, changes in FDA or international regulatory standards; technological challenges in large-scale deployment of molecular markers; competitive innovations from other companies; operational disruptions in recycling or plastics manufacturing; fluctuations in pricing for virgin or recycled plastics; and the broader economic conditions that influence capital investment and industrial activity.

    Detailed risk factors are described in SMX’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the Annual Report on Form 10-K and subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward looking statements. These statements speak only as of the date of publication. SMX undertakes no obligation to update or revise forward looking statements to reflect subsequent events, changes in circumstances, or new information, except as required by applicable law.
