CHAR Technologies Starts Commissioning First Commercial Thorold Renewable Energy Plant

The latest update is out from CHAR Technologies ( (TSE:YES) ).

CHAR Technologies has begun commissioning its Thorold Renewable Energy Facility in Ontario, its first commercial-scale plant for producing renewable energy and biocarbon. The staged start-up starts with feedstock receiving and handling ahead of bringing the high-temperature pyrolysis kiln online, with the company targeting a Phase 1 biocarbon production run-rate of 5,000 tonnes per year by the end of the first quarter of 2026. As systems are sequentially tested and integrated, CHAR expects production volumes to ramp up, establishing operating performance, throughput and product quality. Following completion of Phase 1, the company plans a Phase 2 expansion to install a second kiln, double biocarbon capacity, add methanation equipment to upgrade syngas into renewable natural gas, and build an on-site pipeline injection point, deepening its role in low-carbon fuel and industrial decarbonization markets. The Thorold facility is held in a limited partnership with the BMI Group, in which CHAR holds a 50% stake, positioning the company to generate recurring revenues from both biocarbon and future RNG output.
