  2. FinanceOpenWorld (NASDAQ: OPNW) Signs Term Sheet to Finance and Operate a Solar-Powered AI Computing Network Built on Tesla Powerwall BatteriesCompanies: TeslaOpenWorld, Inc. ("OpenWorld" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: OPNW), an innovation company advancing global real-world asset ("RWA") tokenization, today announced that it has entered into a non-binding term sheet with Meridian to establish a tokenized financing program of up to $[1] billion to fund the purchase and deployment of a distributed AI computing network powered by solar energy and Tesla Powerwall battery storage. Under the term sheet, OpenWorld will serve as advisor, structuring agent and services provider for the program, and its OpenWorld Enterprise platform will finance, coordinate and monitor the network. Key Highlights Up to $1 billion in tokenized financing: OpenWorld structures and administers the tokenized financing program on OpenWorld Enterprise. Tesla Powerwall batteries, solar panels and AI computing equipment serve as collateral within the structure. Exclusive Tesla Powerwall inventory: Meridian holds exclusive rights to a reserved inventory of Tesla Powerwall systems that qualified for federal clean-energy tax credits before those credits were discontinued. [The inventory covers more than 160,000 Powerwalls, enough to support approximately 80,000 homes.] Initial deployment of 10,000 homes: [GPU-equipped computers at participating homes, with larger installations at local schools, hospitals and commercial campuses.] AI inference without new data centers: AI providers pay to run trained models on the network with no new centralized data-center sites, no additional grid interconnections and no water-based cooling. The program is intended to supply capacity to one or more leading AI inference providers. Hosts get paid: Homeowners receive monthly hosting payments and lower-cost electricity, with household energy needs taking priority over computing workloads. Commercial hosts receive a share of site revenue and backup power. Timeline: Test installations scheduled to begin in the fourth quarter of 2026; first commercial site targeted for the first quarter of 2027. Builds on the BeyondAI transaction: Follows last week's proposed transaction with BeyondAI, which would transform BeyondAI’s industrial AI intellectual property rights into financeable collateral on OpenWorld’s tokenization platform. Solving the Power Problem in AI Infrastructure Access to power is a growing constraint on AI infrastructure. New data centers face lengthy grid interconnection timelines, local opposition and significant water demands. The planned network of home-hosted, distributed AI inference computing would place GPU-equipped computers at participating homes and larger installations at local schools, hospitals and commercial campuses, each powered by on-site solar generation and Tesla Powerwall storage. AI providers would pay to use this computing capacity for inference, the process of running trained AI models, without requiring new centralized data-center sites, additional grid connections or water-based cooling. Participating homeowners would receive monthly hosting payments and lower-cost electricity, with household energy needs taking priority over computing workloads. Commercial hosts would receive a share of site revenue and backup power. How the Program Works Meridian, a privately held Delaware limited liability company, specializes in optimizing tax credits for Tesla Powerwall systems and holds exclusive rights to a reserved inventory of Powerwall systems that qualified for federal clean-energy tax credits before those credits were discontinued. [The inventory covers more than 160,000 Powerwalls, enough to support installations at approximately 80,000 homes. The program’s initial deployment is planned for 10,000 homes.] Under the term sheet, OpenWorld will serve as advisor, structuring agent and services provider for the financing program. OpenWorld will establish and administer the tokenized financing structure on its OpenWorld Enterprise platform. The financing would support Meridian’s purchase and deployment of Tesla Powerwall batteries and associated AI computing equipment, as well as the purchase by OpenWorld or a subsidiary of solar panels, all of which would serve as collateral within the structure. OpenWorld is also developing an integrated system to power and operate each installation. The OpenWorld Enterprise platform will coordinate computing workloads across the network, monitor equipment performance and provide investors with reporting on the underlying assets. The program is intended to supply computing capacity to one or more leading AI inference providers. Test installations are scheduled to begin in the fourth quarter of 2026, with the first commercial site targeted for the first quarter of 2027. Management Commentary “Access to power is becoming the major constraint on the growth of AI infrastructure,” said Matt Shaw, CEO and Chairman of OpenWorld. “By bringing computing equipment to homes and commercial properties through solar generation and Tesla Powerwall storage, we can build AI capacity closer to the power source instead of waiting years for a grid connection. Our term sheet with Meridian brings together the tokenization, financing and operating capabilities needed to develop this network at scale, and it shows what OpenWorld Enterprise is built to do: turn real-world assets into financeable, on-chain infrastructure.” “Meridian’s rights to a large inventory of tax-qualified Tesla Powerwall systems provide the critical foundation for this program,” said Josh Raffaelli, founder of Meridian and clean energy investor. “OpenWorld will help us finance the equipment and manage the network, turning solar generation and battery storage at participating properties into infrastructure that can serve growing demand for AI computing.” If a transaction is consummated, Mr. Raffaelli is expected to join OpenWorld’s board of directors. Certain officers and directors of OpenWorld hold interests in Meridian; additional information regarding these relationships is included in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K.
