TORONTO, April 30, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- HydroGraph Clean Power Inc. (CSE: HG) (OTCQB: HGRAF) (FRA: M98) (“HydroGraph” or the “Company”), a sustainable commercial manufacturer of pristine graphene, today announced two major growth milestones: a strategic relationship with a leading North American industrial gas supplier and the initiation of the first stages of planning for a new production facility in Texas which has been outlined in a letter of intent signed on April 24th 2025. These developments mark a significant inflection point in HydroGraph’s expansion strategy. With the global graphene market projected to grow 19.3% annually through 2033, HydroGraph is well-positioned to meet accelerating demand across sectors including coatings, composites, lubricants, energy storage, and more. Under the newly signed letter of intent, the gas supplier is expected to provide HydroGraph with access to its high-purity acetylene—a critical feedstock for the Company’s patented detonation synthesis process. This continuous, high-quality supply enables increased production volumes without compromising HydroGraph’s industry-leading product consistency. “To produce the world’s best graphene, we need the world’s best inputs,” said Kjirstin Breure, President and CEO of HydroGraph. “This relationship can provide us with large volumes of high-purity acetylene—an essential step in scaling production while maintaining the exceptional purity our customers rely on.” The letter of intent also sets the stage for the planning of HydroGraph’s new Texas-based production facility. The site will be designed to initially house 15 of HydroGraph’s next-generation Hyperion reactors, with capacity to produce over 350 metric tons of graphene annually. The facility will scale in step with customer demand. “The planning of this new facility is a cornerstone of our growth strategy,” Breure added. “It will significantly expand our manufacturing capabilities and enhance our ability to deliver on commercial commitments across a growing customer base.” This announcement follows several key milestones for HydroGraph, including ISO 9001:2015 certification, the launch of a new line of advanced graphene dispersions with NEI Corporation, and recent testing that demonstrated strong performance benefits of its fractal graphene (FGA-1) as an additive in polyurethane (PU) coatings.
