(TheNewswire)

Brossard, Quebec TheNewswire - October 9, 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 excited to announce a key addition to its industrial gases operations team as it prepares for production at its flagship project in Sorel-Tracy, Quebec.

Strengthening Field Operations with New Leadership

CHARBONE is pleased to welcome Patrick Cuddihy , a seasoned operations leader with over 20 years of experience at Air Liquide Canada, to its hydrogen operations team. Patrick brings a wealth of expertise in managing industrial gas production and distribution, having held senior roles including Network Sales Director – Quebec Region, General Manager – Pacific Region, Director of Procurement Services, and Director of Logistics and Assets – Eastern Region.

His operational acumen will be instrumental as CHARBONE transitions its first project deployment to full-scale production. Working closely with CHARBONE's executive team, Patrick will support the operation and the management of green hydrogen production projects across the U.S. and Canada.

" Patrick's extensive experience in industrial gases, particularly in operations and supply chain management, will significantly strengthen our team as we move from planning to execution," said Dave Gagnon, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board, Charbone Hydrogen. "As we prepare to generate our first revenues, we are focused on increasing shareholder value through efficient operations and strategic growth."

Expanding Operations and Workforce

CHARBONE's green hydrogen production is set to commence later this year at its Sorel-Tracy facility, with a second site near Detroit, Michigan planned by the end of 2024. As part of its broader expansion strategy, the Company is also growing its workforce and targeting new market opportunities in key regions, including New York, Ontario, Pennsylvania, Illinois, Wisconsin, and California.

Additionally, CHARBONE has been invited to participate in two large-scale Requests for Information (RFIs), further demonstrating the growing demand for green hydrogen solutions. By 2030, the Company aims to operate 16 green hydrogen production facilities across North America.
