CHARBONE Corporation Reaches Critical Milestone with Equipment Delivery at Sorel-Tracy Hydrogen Facility

CHARBONE Corporation has achieved a significant development milestone with the safe reception of all major production equipment components at its Sorel-Tracy hydrogen facility. This equipment delivery enables the official launch of civil works scheduled for October 27, 2025, representing the first operational phase toward equipment reinstallation, connection, and commissioning planned for November 2025. The progress demonstrates CHARBONE's execution capability in the competitive clean hydrogen sector, where timing and cost efficiency are critical factors for market success.

This development follows the strategic transaction announced on October 7, 2025, through which CHARBONE secured hydrogen production assets. The acquisition has positioned the company to significantly reduce capital expenditures while accelerating time to market through integration of proven, efficient equipment. Site team mobilization continues this week to prepare for the civil works commencement. The company's approach of integrating existing production assets rather than building entirely new infrastructure provides strategic advantages in capital management and project timeline optimization.

As a North American producer and distributor specializing in clean Ultra High Purity hydrogen and strategic industrial gases, CHARBONE is building a distributed network of green hydrogen production plants using a modular approach. The company's business model includes diversifying revenues through helium and specialty gas partnerships while maintaining focus on the transition to low-carbon energy solutions. CHARBONE is publicly traded on multiple exchanges, including the TSX Venture Exchange, OTC Markets, and Frankfurt Stock Exchange.
