Many factors could cause actual future events to differ materially from the forward-looking statements in this report, including, without limitation: (i) the risk that the Business Combination may not be completed in a timely manner or at all, which may adversely affect the price of TRTL’s securities, (ii) the risk that the Business Combination may not be completed by TRTL’s business combination deadline and the potential failure to obtain an extension of the business combination deadline if sought by TRTL, (iii) the failure to satisfy the conditions to the consummation of the Business Combination, including the requirements that the Business Combination Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby be approved by the shareholders of TRTL and by the stockholders of One Energy, respectively, (iv) the failure to obtain regulatory approvals and any other third party consents, as applicable, as may be required to consummate the Business Combination, (v) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstance that could give rise to the termination of the Business Combination Agreement, or that redemptions by TRTL public shareholders may exceed expectations, (vi) the effect of the announcement or pendency of the Business Combination on One Energy’s business relationships, operating results, and business generally, (vii) risks that the Business Combination disrupts current plans and operations of One Energy, (viii) the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against One Energy or against TRTL related to the Business Combination Agreement or the Business Combination, (ix) the ability to maintain the listing of TRTL’s securities on New York Stock Exchange, (x) changes in the competitive market in which One Energy operates, variations in performance across competitors, changes in laws and regulations affecting One Energy’s business and changes in the capital structure of Pubco after the Closing, (xi) the ability to implement business plans, growth, marketplace, customer pipeline and other expectations after the completion of the Business Combination, and identify and realize additional opportunities, (xii) the potential inability of One Energy to achieve its business and growth plans, (xiii) the ability of One Energy to enforce its current material contracts or to secure long-term or other committed contracts with new or existing customers on terms favorable to One Energy, (xiv) the risk that One Energy will need to raise additional capital to execute its business plans, which may not be available on acceptable terms or at all, (xv) the risk that One Energy experiences difficulties in managing its growth and expanding operations, (xvi) the risk of One Energy’s cyber security measures being unable to prevent hacking or disruption to One Energy’s customers, and (xvii) the risk of economic downturn, increased competition, a changing of energy regulatory landscape and related impacts that could occur in the highly competitive energy market, including, among other things, that One Energy will not meet milestones for funding its ongoing and future project pipeline.

DISCLAIMER (1 of 2) PLEASE TAKE THE TIME TO READ THESE IMPORTANT DISCLAIMERS, WARNINGS, AND CLARIFICATIONS One Energy Enterprises Inc. (“One Energy” and referred to herein from time to time as “One Power”) has prepared this presentation. This Presentation contains information about a proposed business combination (the “Business Combination”) between One Energy and TortoiseEcofin Acquisition Corp. III (referred to as “TRTL”). The information contained herein does not purport to be all-inclusive and the information contained herein is preliminary and subject to change and such changes may be material. No securities commission or securities regulatory authority in the United States or any other jurisdiction has in any way passed upon the merits of the Business Combination or the accuracy or adequacy of this presentation. Neither One Power nor TRTL provide any guarantees of any kind that the Business Combination will be consummated.

In connection with the proposed Business Combination, TRTL Holding Corp., a wholly owned subsidiary of TRTL, filed a registration statement on Form S-4 on May 13, 2024 (the “Registration Statement”) with the Securities Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) that includes a preliminary proxy statement to be distributed to shareholders of TRTL in connection with TRTL’s solicitation of proxies for the vote by its shareholders with respect to the Business Combination. TRTL may also file other documents with the SEC regarding the Business Combination, and prospective investors, before making any investment or voting decision, shareholders and other interested persons are advised to read, when available, the Registration Statement and preliminary proxy statement/prospectus and any amendments thereto, and the definitive proxy statement/prospectus in connection with TRTL’s solicitation of proxies for the special meeting to be held to approve the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination. shareholders will also be able to obtain a copy of the preliminary proxy statement/prospectus and the definitive proxy statement/prospectus once they are available, without charge, at the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov, or by directing a request to: TortoiseEcofin Acquisition Corp III 195 US HWY 50 Suite 208 Zephyr Cove, NV 89448.

In addition, the information contained in this presentation is as of the date hereof, and One Power and TRTL have no obligation to update such information, including in the event that such information becomes inaccurate. The delivery of this presentation and the information contained herein shall not create any liability or obligation whatsoever for TRTL or One Power. No representations or warranties are made by One Power or TRTL or any of their affiliates as to the accuracy or completeness of any statements contained in this presentation or any additional materials. This presentation should not be considered as a recommendation by One Power or TRTL or any of their respective agents to acquire any securities or to enter into any transaction. This presentation includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, as amended, that reflect current views of One Power or TRTL with respect to, among other things, operations and financial performance.

All statements about the future are forward looking statements unless unambiguously noted otherwise. Forward-looking statements contained in this presentation are based on One Power’s current expectations and are subject to changes in circumstances and other risks and uncertainties.

One Power and TRTL cannot assure you that future developments affecting One Power or TRTL will be those that One Power or TRTL have anticipated.

Forward-looking statements do not reflect the potential impact of any future acquisitions, mergers, dispositions, joint ventures, investments or other strategic transactions One Power may make. One Power and TRTL undertake no obligation to publicly update or review any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as may be required by any applicable securities laws. 2

WE BELIEVE OUR MISSION MATTERS One Power develops, builds, owns, and operates on-site power solutions for large industrial power users. Three of One Power’s Wind for Industry projects - Findlay, OH. We help established and emerging industrial customers solve big power problems. “Customer-first, industrial-focused, behind-the-meter power solutions are changing everything you thought you knew about the grid.” 5


THE POWER GRID IS ARCHAIC (the macro problem) st We want to change how the power grid works for the 21 century. UTILITY 1.0 75 years and counting The future $ $ $ $ $ $ $ One Power Customer $ Make the power hundreds of miles away at aging plants - then move it through a congested, inefficient, Make the power where you need it antiquated, transmission and distribution system We believe the power grid is fundamentally, and America’s archaic and failing centralized power grid is permanently changing from a centralized utility- unlikely to survive the added stress of electrification controlled grid to a decentralized customer- controlled grid 6


INDUSTRIALS NEED AN UPGRADE (the micro problem) Industrial consumers are leading a power revolution. Emerging Industrials are Established Industrials Starting a Goldrush to find Demand Solutions power • Significant energy rate risk and no good way to • Need large amounts of power, as soon as mitigate energy risk past 3-4 years possible • No established method to control historically• Do not have large power / high voltage expertise rising rates • Power contributes up to 85% of their operating • Have significant Risk To Business (RTB) with existing costs power equipment - often built with the • Typically lack the experience and resources to original factory work through utility bottlenecks • Have ESG goals and price of carbon metrics • Need sophisticated, rapidly deployed, highly • Have limited capital to allocate to the problem adaptable power infrastructure • Don’t want to bet their business on the grid’s archaic infrastructure Bad infrastructure is a risk-to-business problem, and energy rates are a risk-to-profit problem. 7


ONE POWER HAS A PROVEN HISTORY OF DELIVERING NEW SOLUTIONS One Power is consistently innovating and continually delivering new, value-added solutions to meet our industrial customer’s power needs.

OUR INDUSTRIAL CUSTOMERS ARE LARGE AND CONCENTRATED USERS One Power’s solutions are focused on industrials because that is where the power is Industrial power is a HUGE, CONCENTRATED, sophisticated market opportunity There are 53,000 industrial facilities in the United States In the U.S., these industrial facilities represent 0.6% 26% $58 billion of the total users of the total power consumption in electricity sales annually OE Market Study 2020 “Steel, concrete, chemicals, vehicles — nearly all industry in the United States relies on fossil fuels. And all that manufacturing is directly responsible for a quarter of U.S. greenhouse gas emissions, excluding emissions from the electricity purchased by industry. We won’t have a shot at solving climate change unless we transform how we produce nearly everything in our economy. But switching industrial processes to run on clean electricity — electrification — could increase annual electricity demand by 6,000 to 10,000 terrawatt-hours. That’s more than our total national demand (4,300 TWh) and more than switching all cars to electric vehicles (2,000 TWhs). So how can we meet climate goals without breaking the grid?” - Utility Dive, May 31, 2023 9

WE BELIEVE THAT DOING BETTER NOW IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN PROMISING TO BE PERFECT LATER Decarbonizing our economy starts with doing better, not pretending to be perfect. If every industrial just did better, instead of talking about being perfect, the world would be cleaner. As of 2023, Our projects have produced: 726,322,095 kWH In their respective first 20-years, we estimate they will produce: 2,391,144,000 kWH That equals approximately: 1,670,000 mtCO equivalent 2 We are helping industrials reduce their scope 2 emissions, in some cases, by up to 100% in a single project. There is nothing virtual about our projects – clean energy is made and used at the same site. 20 20
