📣 Yesterday afternoon, Jonathan Wilkinson was at our #Burnaby facility to announce a $1M investment in Ekona’s work to decarbonize hydrogen production in the energy sector and heavy industry! This funding will support xCaliber™ reactor testing and the expansion of our Burnaby Pilot Plant —a 200 kilogram-per-day #cleanhydrogen production testing facility. Many thanks to Natural Resources Canada (NRCan) for the ongoing support!

What if one of the most abundant hydrocarbons could fuel a clean energy future?
About us
With a deep commitment to clean energy and environmental solutions, we are developing a breakthrough technology that transforms the way we produce clean hydrogen. Existing approaches for clean hydrogen production are either expensive or energy-intensive. Our solution is an innovative, scalable and low-cost methane pyrolysis platform that converts natural gas into hydrogen and solid carbon, thereby virtually eliminating greenhouse gas emissions.

Thanks for the shout-out as a notable cleantech startup, Climate Insider! 🙌
The Canadian government introduces four new investment tax credits to revolutionize the cleantech landscape: Clean Technology, Clean Technology Manufacturing, Carbon Capture, Utilization, and Storage (CCUS), and Clean Hydrogen. These tax credits incentivize investments across the cleantech value chain, fostering job creation, economic diversification, and reducing greenhouse gas emissions, helping Canada achieve its net-zero targets by 2050. The introduction of these investment tax credits solidifies experts' optimism around Canada's cleantech future. For instance, Karen Hamberg points to recent initiatives and collaborations as crucial for innovation, and Dominic Barton emphasizes crafting a competitive industrial strategy to drive economic growth and achieve net-zero targets.

🎉 Last Tuesday, Sally Carefoot and Rachel P. were in Calgary to celebrate the 15-year anniversary of one of Ekona's funding partners, Emissions Reduction Alberta (ERA). Ekona was proud to be an event sponsor, in recognition of our gratitude to ERA for their ongoing support of our work to utilize today's natural gas infrastructure to meet tomorrow’s net-zero targets. Funding from ERA has supported our work at various stages of our technology roadmap, including the deployment of our one-tonne-per-day clean hydrogen plant at the ARC Resources Ltd. Gold Creek Natural Gas Plant in Grande Prairie, Alberta. Since its inception, ERA has invested more than $1 billion in more than 300 projects worth over $8.8 billion. Created in 2009 by the Government of Alberta, ERA invests in the pilot, demonstration, and deployment of clean technology solutions that reduce GHGs, lower costs, attract investment, and create jobs. Thanks, ERA, for an amazing 15 years of accelerating the development and adoption of innovative technologies to reduce GHG emissions! 🙌 And thank you, too, for believing in Ekona and the role of our technology in the transition to low-carbon economies, in Alberta and beyond provincial borders. 🙏 Learn more about Ekona's funding from ERA ➡ https://lnkd.in/gjEiMYit Learn more about Ekona's validation project with ARC Resources➡ https://lnkd.in/gx_EN-HC Sign up for Ekona's newsletter➡ https://lnkd.in/g29NfrKg #Ekona #methanepyrolysis #naturalgas #cleanhydrogen #solidcarbon #xCaliberReactor #decarbonization #ERA15 #ERAFunded #TIERfund #sallywasthere

Last week, Ekona’s Sally Carefoot joined many smart, savvy #womeninenergy to talk about work, the energy transition, and careers in sustainability. Sally was on a panel speaking to a cohort in the Calgary Catholic Immigration Society's Careers in Sustainability program, providing perspectives on Canada's energy sector and ways for new immigrants to leverage international work experience in the next phase of their careers. Discussions were rich, on the panel and in the networking time afterwards! 🙏 Thanks for the invite and a big shout-out to everyone who attended, including Sally's fellow panelists Victoria W. (EnergeiaWorks), Lesley Matthews, M.E.Des (Climeworks), Christine Crawford, (STEP Energy Services), and Behnaz A. LaFrenz, P.Eng., M.Sc. (Canary Biofuels). 🙌 #sallywasthere #sustainabilitycareers #careerdevelopment #womeninenergy #wherewillsallybenext #givingback #welcometocanada #newbeginnings #ekonapower #methanepyrolysis #cleanhydrogen #wherewillsallybenext
