(TheNewswire)

Brossard, Quebec, APRIL 10, 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, today announced that an essential component for the storage of green hydrogen have been built and is ready for transport to its flagship green hydrogen site, located in the City of Sorel-Tracy, Quebec along Highway 30's "Steel Highway."  News of the upcoming equipment delivery quickly follows CHARBONE's recent strategic priorities announcement and stated intent to have its green hydrogen production facility operational this summer.

State-of-the-art storage tubes, fabricated by one of North America's top high-pressure tube manufacturers out of Littleton, Massachusetts, were engineered to manage significantly higher pressures than others found in market. CHARBONE's compression standards were selected in order to increase and optimize safe storage capacity, while ultimately reducing transportation and delivery costs. The different hydrogen production components for the Sorel-Tracy project were ordered and secured with down payments already made.

" After years of intensive and hard work, CHARBONE is hitting another important milestone today with the delivery of this first component for our flagship Canadian project, " said Dave Gagnon, CEO of Charbone . "Our unique approach to modular green hydrogen plant development allows us to move fast. Now just months away from launching production, I'm proud of our team's dedication, and also want to acknowledge and thank investors, shareholders and our families for their strong and unwavering support."

The Sorel-Tracy Green Hydrogen Project will serve as the Company's flagship facility, giving Charbone a first-mover advantage with production starting Q3-2024. Following a phased approach, and gradually accelerating to produce approximately 200 kg per day once reaching initial full capacity, the facility is targeting industrial uses and replacing gray hydrogen with a clean, and reliable, renewable alternative to hydrogen produced from fossil fuels.

Charbone is now preparing to set up a delivery schedule for the other production and storage equipment.
