July 26, 2024 John Lipman President Roth CH V Holdings, Inc. 888 San Clemente Drive Suite 400 Newport Beach, CA 92660 Re:Roth CH V Holdings, Inc. Registration Statement on Form S-4 Filed June 28, 2024 File No. 333-280591 Dear John Lipman: We have reviewed your registration statement and have the following comments. Please respond to this letter by amending your registration statement and providing the requested information. If you do not believe a comment applies to your facts and circumstances or do not believe an amendment is appropriate, please tell us why in your response. After reviewing any amendment to your registration statement and the information you provide in response to this letter, we may have additional comments. Registration Statement on Form S-4 Cover Page 1.Please disclose the treatment of the outstanding shares of Roth CH Acquisition V Co. common stock and warrants under the Business Combination Agreement and Plan of Reorganization, as amended. About this Proxy Statement/Prospectus, page 1 Please ensure that you have updated your disclosures throughout your filing, as applicable, to reflect changes in the proposed transaction as reflected in the First Amendment to the Business Combination Agreement and Plan of Reorganization. For example, we note your disclosure in this section describes this filing as a prospectus of ROCL with respect to shares of ROCL common stock to be issued to NEH’s stockholders, and defines “Combined Company” by reference to NEH becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of ROCL. Similarly, we note disclosures regarding the issuance 2.

July 26, 2024 Page 2 of ROCL common stock upon exercise of ROCL public warrants, such as in connection with the table on page 12. Please revise. Summary of the Proxy Statement Inventory of Drilling Locations, page 20 3.The figures for the gross and net natural gas and natural gas liquids reserves in paragraph three on page 20 appear to represent the aggregation of proved and probable reserves. If true, revise your disclosure to separately provide estimates of proved and probable reserves. Refer to question 105.01 in the Compliance and Disclosure Interpretations (“C&DIs”) regarding Oil and Gas Rules. Consideration, page 24 4.Please tell us whether, and if so how, the First Amendment to the Business Combination Agreement and Plan of Reorganization impacted the number of shares to be issued as consideration in the Merger. In that regard, we note that while the amendment removed the closing condition that NEH shall have raised at least $45 million in a private placement of securities in order to fund its new plant construction, the amendment did not appear to amend the definitions of “Company Merger Shares” and “Net Debt.” However, we also note that your response to prior comment 4 suggests that the amendment eliminated the adjustment to the NEH merger shares based on the Net Debt of NEH. Redemption Rights, page 30 5.We note your disclosure in the table on page 30 regarding the number of shares at each redemption level. However, it appears that the number of shares disclosed with respect to the redemption levels other than “maximum redemptions” does not appear to be consistent with the number of shares that would remain outstanding at each such redemption level. Please advise. We may need to raise capital after the Business Combination, which may not be available on favorable terms, if at all..., page 40 6.We note your disclosure in this risk factor that you “may” need to raise capital after the Business Combination. We also note your disclosure on page 176 that NEH is in the process of securing a project financing arrangement, and your disclosure that NEH estimates the capital requirements during 2024 and 2025 to be approximately $40 million to $45 million. Please revise to reflect such information in your risk factor disclosure. In that regard, we note that the parties have agreed to remove the closing condition that NEH raise at least $45 million in a private placement in order to fund its new plant construction. Selected Historical Financial Data of ROCL, page 75 7.We note that the tabular disclosure for the period ended March 31, 2023 is not included. Please revise.

July 26, 2024 Page 3 Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Statements Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Statements Note 4 - Adjustments and Reclassifications to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Balance Sheet as of March 31, 2024, page 89 8.We have considered your response to prior comment 15, where you indicate that the adjustment is “necessary to a fair statement of the balance in the Trust Account and the redemption price per share at the consummation of the Business Combination.” Please clarify why Adjustment J is reflected in Scenario 1. In this regard, it appears that the adjustment is relevant only in Scenario 2, where the assumption is that stockholders will exercise their redemption rights. 9.We have considered your response to prior comment 16 and the disclosure related to Adjustment N, which “Reflects the proceeds from the NEH debentures and the conversion of the debentures to common stock.” Please address the following:

•Tell us why the balance of the NEH debentures is not eliminated with conversion of the NEH debentures into common stock. In this regard, we note disclosure on page F- 93, which states: “ As of March 31, 2024, there was $499,611 payable on the Bridge Financing Debentures which includes accrued interest. This amount was recorded as Notes payable—current on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets .” •Revise to clearly explain why this adjustment reflects an addition to cash of $1,114,514. To this end, it appears this adjustment reflects the issuance of new NEH debentures, rather than conversion of the outstanding NEH debentures noted above. •Revise to disclose debentures issued and proceeds received subsequent to March 31, 2024, total amount of debentures converted with a reconciliation to number of shares issued under each scenario presented on page 81. In addition, please revise the table on page 12, as appropriate. Appraisal of Certain Oil and Gas Interests, page 94 10.We note your response to prior comment 18 but are unable to locate the disclosure revisions to the introductory paragraph clarifying the Appraisal Reports contained in Annex D include estimates of proved and probable hydrocarbon reserves in addition to estimates of proved and probable helium reserves. We reissue our prior comment. Proposal 1: The Business Combination Proposal Background of the Business Combination, page 99 11.Please describe the negotiations that resulted in the amendment to the Business Combination Agreement and Plan of Reorganization in June 2024, and disclose why the parties amended the terms of such agreement. Recommendation of the ROCL Board of Directors and Reasons for the Business Combination, page 104 12.We note the revised disclosure you made on page 106 in response to prior comment 19. However, we note that the Standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows you present of $1,049,600 does not match the amount reflected on page F-77 of $757,910. Please revise your disclosures for consistency.

July 26, 2024 Page 4 New Era Helium Has Proved, Not Prospective, Reserves, page 105 13.We note the revised disclosure you made on page 106 in response to prior comment 21. However, we reissue our prior comment in part as your disclosure continues to refer to a standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows for probable reserves. Please revise your disclosure to remove this description and indicate these cash flows represent an after tax estimate and are provided for comparative purposes.

We also note the figure for the net present value of proved hydrocarbon reserves discounted at 10% shown as $10,315,600 does not match the amount reflected on page 94. Furthermore, we are unable to reconcile the figures shown in the individual bullet points for the proved and probable standardized measure using the inputs to the calculation and figures presented on page F-77 and Annex D, respectively. Please revise your disclosures for consistency or tell us why a revision is not needed. Certain Prospective Financial Information of New Era Helium, page 110 14.We note your references in this section to the “Project Finance Debt,” and note that such term is not defined. Please revise. Nasdaq Matters, page 152 15.Please update your disclosure regarding the status of your requested hearing with the Nasdaq Hearing Panel. Information About NEH Overview, page 156 16.We note the revised disclosure you made on pages 156 and 157 in response to prior comment 21. However, we reissue our prior comment as your disclosure continues to be incomplete regarding the specific information required by Items 1202, 1203(d), 1204, 1205, 1206 and 1208(a) and (b) of Regulation S-K. Please revise your disclosure and provide this information under appropriate captions. Proved Undeveloped Hydrocarbon Reserves, page 157 17.Please expand your discussion of the changes that occurred in proved undeveloped reserves to provide an explanation for the changes due to extensions. As part of your updated discussion, please additionally disclose the extent that any proved undeveloped reserves were converted during the year into proved developed reserves. If no such reserves were converted, please acknowledge this fact. If you did convert any such reserves, please revise your reconciliation accordingly and disclose the capital expenditures incurred. Refer to the disclosure requirements in Item 1203(b) and (c) of Regulation S-K. Customers, page 158 18.We note your disclosure that the Gas Purchase Agreement with IACX expired on May 31, 2024. Please update your disclosures regarding such agreement to disclose whether you continue to sell natural gas and natural gas liquids to IACX, and if so, disclose the material terms of such arrangements.

July 26, 2024 Page 5 19.We note your disclosure that NEH Midstream LLC, AirLife Gases USA Inc., and Badger entered into an Assignment Agreement, pursuant to which NEH Midstream LLC assigned all of its rights, title, interest and obligations in the Crude Helium Agreement to AirLife Gases USA Inc. Please revise to clarify the impact, if any, on the terms of the Helium Tolling Agreement and the Liquid Helium Agreement. For example, we note your disclosure that KHC agreed to provide tolling services to you on a firm basis, for a volume equivalent to the quantities sold under the Crude Helium Agreement with Badger.

For guidance, please refer to Staff Legal Bulletin No. 19 (October 14, 2011), which is available on our website. In addition, please obtain and file a revised tax opinion as to the tax consequences of the Business Combination, including the Merger, to holders of NEH common stock. In that regard, we note that the tax opinion filed as Exhibit 8.1 does not appear to reflect the terms of the transactions, as amended in June 2024. Experts, page 216 22.We have read your response and note the revised disclosure you made on page 216 in response to prior comment 28. However, your disclosure only references the “Appraisal Report” and does not additionally reference the reserves reports and estimates of reserves appearing in this prospectus for the years ending December 31, 2020, 2021, and 2022 and as noted in the MKM consent. Please revise your disclosure accordingly. Appraisal Report, page 217 23.We note the figures for “Investments” and the resulting “Operating Income (BFIT)” for the years ending December 31, 2022 and 2021 appear to be inconsistent with the comparable figures on page F-77.

July 26, 2024 Page 6 New Era Helium Corp. Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements Note 17. Supplemental Oil and Natural Gas Disclosures (Unaudited) Oil and Natural Gas Reserves, page F-74 25.We note the revised disclosure you made on page F-76 and elsewhere on page F-77 in response to prior comment 32. However, we reissue our prior comment in part as the discussion on page F-76 relating to certain undeveloped drilling locations is not explained as correlating to the line item for revisions, if true. We also note you do not identify any additional contributing factors such as changes due to costs, commodity prices, well performance, or other changes to the extent these factors are applicable. Please revise your explanation to separately identify and quantify each factor, including offsetting factors, such that the change in the line item for revisions is fully explained.

Also, please relocate the discussion that appears on page F-77 after the reconciliation of the changes in the standardized measure to follow the reconciliation of the change in total proved reserves and expand your discussion of the change due to “Discoveries and Extensions” to explain the difference between the net quantities presented in the line item on page F-76 and the comparable amounts presented on page 157. Standardized Measure of Discounted Future Net Cash Flows, page F-77 26.We note the reconciliation of the changes in the standardized measure for the year ended December 31, 2021 shows a figure of “0” at the beginning of the year. This appears inconsistent with the comparable estimate as of December 31, 2020 shown on page 218. Please revise your disclosure to resolve the inconsistency or tell us why a revision is not needed. Exhibit 99.5, page II-2 27.We note the revised disclosure you made on page D-5 in Annex D (Exhibit 99.5) in response to prior comment 38 regarding the specifications of the Pecos Slope Plant.

The discussion under the section “Primary Economic Assumptions” on page 96 was similarly revised and lacks the clarification as noted.

To the extent the forecast annual proved or proved plus incremental probable helium production volumes exceed the disclosed processing capacity of 87 Mcf per day revise your forecasts or tell us why a revision is not required. 28.We have read your response to prior comment 39; however, we reissue our prior comment as we are unable to locate disclosure that addresses our comment. We note the revised disclosure made on page D-6 in Annex D (Exhibit 99.5) in response to prior comment 42 regarding the contractually specified price for helium and the related prices used in the report. The discussion under the section “Helium Prices” on page D-6 indicates for the helium prices used in the report, it was assumed that in years 1-3 the helium price represented the ceiling price under each contract and that in years 4-1

4.Please tell us whether, and if so how, the First Amendment to the Business Combination
Agreement and Plan of Reorganization impacted the number of shares to be issued as
consideration in the Merger. In that regard, we note that while the amendment removed
the closing condition that NEH shall have raised at least $45 million in a private
placement of securities in order to fund its new plant construction, the amendment did not
appear to amend the definitions of “Company Merger Shares” and “Net Debt.” However,
we also note that your response to prior comment 4 suggests that the amendment
eliminated the adjustment to the NEH merger shares based on the Net Debt of NEH.
Redemption Rights, page 30
5.We note your disclosure in the table on page 30 regarding the number of shares at each

redemption level. Please advise.

Business Combination. We also note your disclosure on page 176 that NEH is in the
process of securing a project financing arrangement, and your disclosure that NEH
estimates the capital requirements during 2024 and 2025 to be approximately $40 million
to $45 million. Please revise to reflect such information in your risk factor disclosure. In
that regard, we note that the parties have agreed to remove the closing condition that NEH
raise at least $45 million in a private placement in order to fund its new plant
construction.

the NEH debentures into common stock. In this regard, we note disclosure on page F-

However, we reissue our prior comment in part as your disclosure does not additionally
clarify the annual forecasts of proved and incremental probable helium volumes are

We note the revised disclosure made on page D-6 in Annex D (Exhibit 99.5) in response
