Charbone Hydrogen Announces the Execution of a Memorandum of Understanding with Port Hawkesbury Paper, LP to Develop and Construct the First Green Hydrogen Production Facility at the Port Hawkesbury Mill Site, Nova Scotia
2022年6月21日 - 9:44PM
CHARBONE HYDROGEN Corporation (TSXV:CH)
(“
Charbone”) is pleased to announce the execution,
as of June 20, 2022, of a non-binding memorandum of understanding
(the “
MOU”) between Charbone and Port Hawkesbury
Paper, LP (“
PHP”), pursuant to which the parties
are entering into discussions and intend to develop a partnership
for the establishment of Charbone’s first small-scale green
hydrogen production facility in the Maritimes. The facility is
expected to be located on the campus of PHP’s eco-industrial park
in Richmond County, on the outskirts of the Town of Port
Hawkesbury.
Charbone brings to the table its expertise in
the development and construction of modular and scalable facilities
for the production of green hydrogen. Charbone is expected to be
responsible for sourcing renewable energy through separate
discussions with local power producers. It is currently expected
that Charbone will be responsible for the sale and distribution of
its green hydrogen in the Maritime provinces.
Charbone and PHP’s obligations under the MOU are
conditional to the execution of a definitive agreement (the
“Definitive Agreement”) on or before November 18,
2022. Charbone and PHP further intend to explore and identify the
best uses of hydrogen for the assets and benefits of PHP’s
eco-industrial park and other potential local projects. Particular
attention will be paid to the potential reuse of process water in
order to enhance the circularity of the processes.
“Charbone is extremely pleased to develop its
first project in the Maritimes with a strong local partner like
PHP, which has a strong history of reducing waste and energy
requirements and is proactive and supportive of a transformation to
renewable energy, which could include green hydrogen for local
uses,” said Dave B. Gagnon, Chairman and CEO of Charbone.
“Charbone’s model of small-scale, modular and scalable regional
hubs is receiving a lot of attention from the markets where we want
to operate, as it is socially acceptable by the local community and
the different stakeholders as it provides a solution to the
transport and delivery limitations of hydrogen.”
“PHP is committed to facilitating a transition
in Nova Scotia to a diversity of green energy futures. Charbone’s
vision and capacity for timely building out small-scale green
hydrogen production will bring value to the region and represent
another tangible step on that journey; we are excited by the
opportunity to further develop this concept,” said Bevan Lock, Mill
Co-Manager at PHP.
“We are excited to welcome Charbone Hydrogen to
Richmond County! This innovative project is an exciting opportunity
for the Strait Area and aligns with our vision of a green energy
future for the region,” said Amanda Mombourquette, Warden at the
Municipality of the Richmond County.
Mayor Brenda Chisholm-Beaton, from the Town of
Port Hawkesbury, said, “We see significant opportunities for the
Town as the transition to green energy progresses and are pleased
that Charbone intends to locate in proximity to Port Hawkesbury
with their first maritime provinces location.”
