In an increasingly eco-conscious global market, Carbonxt makes a compelling investment case leveraging a current, approximate US$900 million addressable market, driven by a strategic joint venture that presents strong revenue and growth potential. This addressable market is anticipated to grow three to five fold to more than US$2 billion following the introduction of new rules to capture forever chemicals.
Activated carbon is typically derived from sources such as coconut husks and coal, and is among the most common ways to filter contaminants from both water and air.
Activated carbon is so named because the process by which it's produced oxidizes the carbon, 'activating’ a series of small, low-volume pores that considerably increase its surface area. There are a few different methods for producing the material, including carbonization, gas treatment and chemical treatment. It is also invaluable for a wide range of use cases across multiple industries, including healthcare, chemistry, agriculture, oil & gas and even food preparation.
For large-scale industrial use cases, activated carbon typically comes in one of three forms: powdered, pellet and granular. Depending on how the material is treated post-oxidation, activated carbon can be tailored to a multitude of individual use cases. For large-scale use, material cost can range from US$2,000 per tonne to as high as US$6,000 per tonne, presenting a considerable opportunity in activated carbon.
Carbonxt Group (ASX:CG1) is positioned to take full advantage of that opportunity. An innovative manufacturer of custom activated carbon, Carbonxt has locked in a joint venture with US-based partner Kentucky Carbon Processing, forming the joint venture NewCarbon, and effectively expanding Carbonxt’s addressable market and gross margin.
Much of this growth will be courtesy of a new Kentucky facility focused primarily on water treatment. This facility will leverage two pieces of legislation recently announced in the United States — the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA’s) Clean Water Act and the Bipartisan Infrastructure Deal. The former aims to reduce pollution caused by polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), while the latter provides a total of $10 billion in funding to help companies reduce PFAS contamination.
PFAS are a set of widely-used chemicals that take an incredibly long time to break down. Found in soil, water, air, fish and humans, multiple studies have linked PFAS to severe health problems, which include birth defects, developmental delays, thyroid disease, high blood pressure and increased risk of several types of cancer.
It’s why the EPA is cracking down hard on these chemicals, with additional regulations being proposed to further protect communities from the serious effects of PFAS. These regulations, which are set to begin enforcement between 2024 and 2028, will require the majority of companies in the water industry to upgrade their filtration systems.
Carbonxt provides products specifically targeting PFAS removal. Through the NewCarbon joint venture, the company intends to convert a waste-to-energy plant into an activated carbon plant, considerably increasing its production capacity and allowing it to directly serve the roughly 50,000 water utilities in the United States, which together account for roughly 50 percent of the granular activated carbon market.
If all goes as planned for Carbonxt, it will fully disrupt that market, unseating the current leader.
Carbonxt designs specialized activated carbon products for its customers, which consist primarily of industrial sector organizations and power utilities. Available in pellet and powder form, the company's oxidizing, non-brominated activated carbons are non-corrosive and designed to remain efficient throughout their entire lifecycle. Although Carbonxt’s origin and listing is in Australia, its products are manufactured and distributed exclusively within the United States.
Carbonxt is currently focused on developing an activated carbon manufacturing facility in Kentucky, the result of a joint partnership with Kentucky Carbon Processing. Once this facility is operational, water utility companies are expected to form a much larger part of its customer base. The facility is also expected to re-invigorate the company's industrial pellet market sales.

Collaboration sets ABB as preferred supplier of modular and standard electrical substations, with future scope for automation solutions
Agreement will enable Charbone to progress green hydrogen production in both Canada and the United States
Supports the Québec government's 2030 energy roadmap to reduce consumption of petroleum products by one billion liters per year
Brossard, Quebec TheNewswire - March 13, 2025 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 thrilled to announce the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) agreement with ABB to collaborate on the development of up to 15 modular and scalable green hydrogen production facilities across North America over the next five years, providing a clean fuel source for existing hydrogen users and heavy industrial processes such as steelmaking, which currently use grey hydrogen as an energy source.
The MoU scope positions ABB as the preferred supplier for the design, engineering, fabrication, testing and supply of modular and standard electrical substations (eHouses) for the interconnection between production facilities and local utilities. ABB will support CHARBONE standardizing basic engineering for systems and components across its project portfolio, to increase energy efficiency and reliability. Future scope may also see ABB operate as the main automation, electrification and telecom contractor depending on project requirements .
Among the sites covered by the collaboration is CHARBONE's flagship Sorel-Tracy facility near Montreal in Québec, Canada. The facility is expected to be connected to the Hydro-Québec grid by the end of quarter two in 2025, using hydro electricity to power green hydrogen electrolyzers. The plant will create a blueprint for the design and engineering of modular and scalable equipment for other sites being developed by Charbone. The next project to get underway will be in the greater Detroit area in the USA, which is the manufacturing base for major automotive companies.
" This strategic collaboration with ABB is a strong and significant signal about our proposition for the North American green hydrogen market , " said Daniel Charette, Chief Operating Officer of CHARBONE . " With the Sorel-Tracy project moving quickly to on-site activities and the capabilities of plug and play modular approach to get production starting in a minimal number of weeks, Charbone will support the decarbonization of industry. "
Government du Québec has developed a localized Green Hydrogen and Bioenergy Strategy to support the deployment of hydrogen and bioenergy to power industrial sectors such as transportation, primary metals and chemicals. It identifies green hydrogen and bioenergy as having the potential to reduce Québec's consumption of petroleum products by nearly one billion liters a year by 2030. This could cut the region's greenhouse gas emissions by four megatons of carbon dioxide a year – the equivalent of removing 1.2 million gasoline-powered vehicles from the roads .
" Green hydrogen has an important role to play in the transition towards a low carbon energy future , " said Per Erik Holsten, President of ABB Energy Industries . " We are proud to collaborate with Charbone on its strategy to develop and grow green hydrogen production facilities across North America, enabling an important sector to scale and supporting industries to outrun leaner and cleaner. "
In addition to the MoU, Charbone will acquire ABB's Extended Operator Workplace (EOW) system for all the planned facilities and a main operator workplace to monitor all the facilities in North America from CHARBONE's headquarters. The EOWs – the first to be installed in green hydrogen production plants in North America – will enhance production and reduce downtime via 24/7 monitoring from local and remote-control centers.
Global hydrogen demand, largely concentrated in the refining and chemical sectors, reached 97 megatons (Mt) in 2023, representing an increase of 2.5 percent year on year. Low-emissions hydrogen production was less than 1 Mt, but it could reach 49 Mtpa by 2030 based on announced projects.

The Company's overall revenue in the fourth quarter of 2024 showed a substantial 121% increase, reaching $30.1 million compared to $13.6 million in Q4 2023. This growth was primarily driven by increased transaction volumes on the Bitcoin Portal, including from Bitcoin Well Infinite - which provides large bitcoin transactions to high net worth individuals.
The Company also debuted Bitcoin Well Infinite in the USA through a strategic partnership in Q4. Volume in the USA through the first couple months exceeded $3,000,000 and is expected to grow in Q1 2025. Â Both the Bitcoin Portal and Bitcoin Well Infinite have a lower gross profit margin than the Bitcoin ATMs, but are more scalable and cost less to expand making them the optimal growth business unit.
"I am happy to report these revenue numbers!" said Bitcoin Well Founder and CEO Adam O'Brien, "I am more certain of the Bitcoin Portal's product-market fit than ever before. The addition of Bitcoin Well Infinite offering large bitcoin transactions directly to self custody looks like a recipe for success and we are excited to continue growing this service line. I'm confident our increased scale will outpace the costs of growth soon."
Gross profit decreased to $1.2 million in Q4 2024 from $1.4 million last year due to a lower overall gross margin. This was primarily caused by a shift in sales mix, with lower margin online transactions now representing a larger share compared to high margin Bitcoin ATM sales. The Company views this shift as a necessary step in the successful transition to a highly scalable online bitcoin platform.
During Q4 2024, the Company's online segment's gross margin increased to 1.7%, from 1.3% in Q4 2023, +30% improvement

Hempalta Corp. (TSXV: HEMP) ("Hempalta" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that pursuant to its press release dated March 3, 2025 (the "Initial Release"), it has received approval from the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSXV") for the previously announced $325,000 term loans (the "Loan").
The Loan, as disclosed in the Initial Release, was advanced by insiders and major shareholders Darren Bondar and Prairie Merchant Corporation (the "Lenders"). The Loan bears an interest rate of 12% per annum and is secured against certain assets of the Company. The Loan is repayable on the earlier of: (i) one year from the date of issuance; (ii) the successful marketing and sale of the Company's turnkey hemp production facility and processing equipment, or (iii) a financing to the Company of gross proceeds over $1MM. This Loan provides additional working capital to support Hempalta's strategic focus on scaling its industrial hemp carbon credit platform through the Hemp Carbon Standard.
​In connection with the Loan, Hempalta has issued an aggregate of 5,416,667 common share purchase warrants (the "Warrants") to the Lenders. Each Warrant entitles the holder to acquire one common share of the Company at an exercise price of $0.06 per share for a period of one year from the date of issuance. The Warrants are subject to a statutory four-month and one-day hold period, in accordance with applicable securities laws and the policies of the TSXV.​
As the Lenders are insiders of the Company, the issuance of the Warrants constitutes a "related party transaction" within the meaning of TSXV Policy 5.9 and Multilateral Instrument 61-101 Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101"). The Company relied on exemptions from the valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 contained in Sections 5.5(b) and 5.7(1)(b) of MI 61-101 in respect of the Lenders' participation.​
"We are grateful for the continued support from our major shareholders," said Darren Bondar, CEO of Hempalta. "This financing strengthens our ability to execute our strategic focus on the rapidly expanding voluntary carbon market, leveraging industrial hemp's potential for high-integrity carbon sequestration."​
