CHAR Technologies Ltd. announced that it has been awarded a $1.43 million contribution from the Government of Canada through (NRCan) Clean Fuels Fund. The Clean Fuels Fund aims to significantly increase domestic production capacity of clean fuels to support Canada’s prosperous low-carbon future. The contribution will position CHAR to conduct a comprehensive feasibility study, that includes assessing the engineering and design work needed to build a future commercial CHAR facility.

The facility will be designed to convert wood waste to renewable energy (green hydrogen or renewable natural gas) and biocarbon.
