Brossard, Quebec TheNewswire - July 11, 2024 Charbone Hydrogen Corporation (TSXV: CH; OTCQB: CHHYF; FSE: K47) (the "Company" or "CHARBONE"), North America's only publicly traded pure-play green hydrogen company, is pleased to provide an update on its 2025 North American market expansion efforts as the Company onboards a new Operations team member.
CHARBONE is pleased to welcome Mr. David Cheung Atkinson, P.Eng, MBA as a consultant to its operations team. A long-time energy colleague of the CHARBONE management team, David's 25 years of experience in renewable energy spans micro-grid, wind, solar and energy storage projects, with a mix of project engineering, project development, permitting, financing and operations. David will work with Charbone's COO to support the green hydrogen project deployments across the United States and Canada, while helping to execute renewable energy power purchase agreements (PPA's), interconnection agreements (IA's), and will manage the daily operations of CHARBONE's remaining production assets on the renewable energy side of the business.
"David is a strong leader who brings tremendous complementary renewable energy experience to the Company team during this pivotal growth stage," said Daniel Charette, Chief Operating Officer, Charbone Hydrogen. "In addition to US incentives, the Canadian Investment Tax Credits (ITCs) for clean hydrogen should provide CHARBONE with significant tax rebates on project costs of up to 40%. PPA's will allow us to purchase clean and renewable electricity from the grid and access regulatory incentives, has we aim to tap into David's experience here and in many other areas."
