Québec Government Invests in Sustainable Energy Project with CHAR Technologies
Key Ideas
- CHAR Technologies receives $2.5M grant from the Government of Québec to support the conversion of wood waste into biocarbon and green hydrogen for renewable natural gas production.
- The Programme Innovation Bois also grants $1M to la Société de cogénération de Saint-Félicien for a biomass valorization center that complements CHAR Tech's project.
- The collaboration aims to drive innovation in the forest industry, creating employment opportunities and fostering a cleaner, greener future.
- The project aligns with global efforts for sustainable energy solutions by converting waste into clean energy and reducing reliance on traditional fossil fuels.
CHAR Technologies, a sustainable energy solutions company, has received a $2.5M grant from the Government of Québec's Programme Innovation Bois. This funding aims to support CHAR Tech's project in Saint-Félicien, converting wood waste into biocarbon and green hydrogen for the production of renewable natural gas. Additionally, la Société de cogénération de Saint-Félicien has been granted $1M for a biomass valorization center to pre-process biomass for CHAR Tech's project. This collaboration is praised by Andrew White, CHAR Tech's CEO, and Mme. Maïté Blanchette Vézina, Québec Minister, for its innovative approach and contribution to a cleaner future. The investment reflects the Québec government's support for the forest industry and sustainable energy projects. CHAR Tech's high temperature pyrolysis technology aims to generate renewable energy revenue streams while reducing waste and decarbonizing heavy industry. The project aligns with global green energy transitions and emphasizes the importance of converting waste into sustainable energy sources.
