All amounts in Canadian dollars unless otherwise stated

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / December 15, 2021 / RE Royalties Ltd. (TSXV:RE) ("RE Royalties" or the "Company"), a global leader in renewable energy royalty-based financing, has entered into an agreement to provide financing to FuseForward Solutions Group Ltd. ("FuseForward"), a Vancouver based technology company that provides smart infrastructure and digital transformation solutions to utilities, real estate, health care and government industries. FuseForward's smart infrastructure solutions allow their clients to improve operational efficiencies and reduce energy consumption, waste, and water use.

Bernard Tan, CEO of RE Royalties, commented, "This transaction offers RE Royalties an opportunity to move into the smart infrastructure space, a key component of the low carbon energy transition, and critical next horizon for advanced energy efficiency and increased integration of distributed renewable energy resources. Buildings contribute over 13% of Canada's annual greenhouse gas emissions and we are excited to partner with the FuseForward team in bringing forward market solutions to help reduce emissions."
