CHAR Technologies, a sustainable energy solutions company, has been granted $2.5M by the Government of Québec to support a green hydrogen project in Saint-Félicien. The project aims to convert wood waste into biocarbon for metallurgical coal replacement and green hydrogen, which will be further upgraded into renewable natural gas. Additionally, la Société de cogénération de Saint-Félicien received a $1M contribution towards a biomass valorization center. This collaboration between CHAR Tech and SCSF is praised for driving innovation in the forest sector by creating renewable energy revenue streams. The Quebec Minister of Natural Resources applauded the initiative for its impact on investment, job creation, and industry consolidation. CHAR Tech's high temperature pyrolysis technology offers a sustainable solution by diverting waste from landfills and producing clean energy. The project aligns with global efforts to transition to green energy and reduce carbon emissions in heavy industries.
