Charbone grabs green hydrogen orders from the US

The company will supply the gas from its recently-launched Sorel-Tracy project in Quebec to the customer in New York state, said to be part of a “major Japanese industrial conglomerate”.

The volume, duration, and financial details of the order have not been disclosed.

Dave Gagnon, CEO of Charbone, said the order was “pivotal” for the company, as it looks to establish itself as an industrial gas supplier.

“Being selected by a client affiliated with a major Japanese conglomerate in New York State confirms the credibility of our platform…and our ability to meet the demands of the technology markets in North America,” he said.

It comes after Charbone made its first delivery of hydrogen from its hydro-powered electrolyser installation at the Sorel-Tracy project to an unnamed Ontario-based gas distributor.

The projects currently hosts 2.25MW of electrolysis, with plans for a phased expansion up to 25.65MW. The project uses 100% grid power, composed entirely of hydroelectric energy.

Beyond Sorel-Tracy, Charbone intends to build a network of up to 15 green hydrogen plants in North America before branching out into other gases.
