CHAR Tech Provides Thorold Facility Construction Update and Video
TORONTO, Oct. 08, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- CHAR Technologies Ltd. (“CHAR Tech” or the “Company”) (TSXV:YES), a leader in sustainable energy solutions, is pleased to provide an update on construction progress at its Thorold Renewable Energy Facility (“the Facility”). The project remains on track to complete construction of its commercial biocarbon production line by year-end, positioning the Company to advance toward renewable natural gas (“RNG”) production in 2026.
Major components of the feedstock handling system are now in place, with final installation of the outdoor conveyors scheduled for October. Once complete, the feedstock handling system will enable continuous movement of wood waste biomass through the Facility.

Following completion of the feedstock handling system, the Company will transport the first of two commercial High Temperature Pyrolysis (“HTP”) kilns, currently located 40 kilometres from the Facility, for installation and integration with the feedstock handling system. This will complete construction of the commercial biocarbon production phase. The second kiln will be installed as part of the RNG production Phase 2 scheduled for 2026.

With the feedstock handling system nearing completion and preparations underway for kiln installation, we remain well positioned to complete the biocarbon production line before year-end to advance toward RNG production Phase 2 in 2026.”
