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
To assist stakeholders in navigating this transition, TGI INSIGHTS has developed the Future Energy Matrix, comparing core technologies by their readiness and integration potential.
Energy Source | Baseload Reliability | Ease of Grid Integration | Primary Output | Circular Benefit |
|---|---|---|---|---|
SMR (Nuclear) | 100% (High) | Moderate | Electricity / Heat | Zero-carbon "Firm" Power |
Waste-to-Energy | 90% (High) | High | Electricity / Syngas | Landfill Reduction / Recycling |
Geothermal | 95% (High) | Low (Location Dependent) | Electricity / Heat | Minimal Surface Footprint |
Solar / Wind | 30% (Variable) | Moderate | Electricity | Low-cost Bulk Electrons |
Osmotic (PRO) | 85% (Medium) | High (Co-located) | Electricity | Brine Management |
Brine Mining: The "Gold Mine" in the Water
The report offers a startling economic breakdown of "Brine Mining." As the world starves for EV battery materials, desalination reject-streams have become the most accessible source of minerals.
Mineral | Value to Market | The Shift |
|---|---|---|
Lithium | Critical for EVs | Brine extraction is 30-50% cheaper than traditional mining. |
Magnesium | Aerospace & Tech | Provides a secondary revenue stream that subsidizes water costs. |
Strategic Salts | Industrial Feedstock | Turns a "waste problem" into a multi-billion-dollar commodity market. |
Simple Terms: PROs and CONs
Fossil Fuels: Rapidly becoming "Stranded Assets" due to high carbon taxes.
Waste-to-Energy: The Immediate Winner for urban centers, solving the trash crisis while powering the grid.
Tire Recycling: The Economic Winner, turning a "dump fee" liability into a revenue-generating energy source.
SMR/Geothermal: The Winners of the Grid, providing the stability that keeps modern life running 24/7.
