PyroGenesis Canada announces that the Company has received an order for three waste-destructing plasma torches from the US Navy’s shipbuilder, Newport News Shipbuilding. The three plasma torches ordered are for the USS Gerald R. Ford aircraft carrier, the largest and most technologically advanced warship ever built, valued at approximately $13B. The plasma torches are to be used in PyroGenesis’ proprietary Plasma Arc Waste Destruction System, PAWDS, that the Company previously built and delivered to the US Navy. The USS Gerald R. Ford conducted its maiden mission in fall 2022, during which the ship tested operational systems on board, including the Company’s PAWDS. Following the mission’s successful completion, Newport News Shipbuilding – the sole designer and builder of US Navy aircraft carriers – ordered the three additional plasma torches as well as ancillary components. The value of these new orders is approximately $507,500. Final delivery is scheduled for Q3 2023.
