Charbone QC has already procured the necessary major components from its selected suppliers, and we anticipate that they will be ready for delivery to Construction Sorel for the integration work in the first week of March 2023. Charbone QC’s engineering team, BBA, is responsible for the design/engineering, and Construction Sorel is responsible for the modular integration of the major components and coordination of all the site work with its sub-contractors.
Dave B. Gagnon, Chairman and CEO of Charbone, said:
The execution of this Agreement is crucial for our first construction project.
“Construction Sorel is an established local company that works on all kinds of industrial projects. Being able to work on a cost-plus project and have transparency and openness from a great local partner when establishing our facilities is very important for Charbone; hiring locally is in our DNA.”
“Charbone’s strategy to produce its green hydrogen from modular and scalable facilities allows us to fast track the project in a timely and cost-efficient manner which will shorten the installation and commissioning process and allow us to accelerate our first kilogram production”.
Sylvain Descheneaux, President at Construction Sorel.
Construction Sorel is excited to participate in such an innovative project in our region.
“We are pleased to have been selected by Charbone to integrate and built the initial phase I of this facility, which is literally in our back yard. We believe that this is a great project to start a collaboration in the energy transition, sharing the same community involvement is very important to us, and we recognize that Charbone management shares this community vision this with us”.
