Let’s take a look back at some of our 2025 highlights and a look ahead to what you can expect to see from Ekona in 2026!

Methane pyrolysis’ economic breakthrough is the ability to turn natural gas into two valuable products: clean hydrogen and solid carbon.

CCUS is an important emissions management solution in decarbonizing natural gas. But it’s not always a feasible solution.

Canada’s emerging LNG infrastructure represents a strategic asset to secure our economic future today and position Canada as a global hydrogen leader tomorrow.

Earlier this year, Ekona received a 2025 Canadian Business Innovation Award, presented by Canadian Business and Maclean’s magazine.

Ekona recently submitted its final report to NRCan for a CAD$14M project focused on scaling and upgrading Ekona’s Burnaby-based pilot plant.

Ekona’s CCO, Gary Schubak, recently spoke to DOB Energy about the xCaliber-reactor advantage as Ekona develops its methane pyrolysis clean hydrogen solution.

Methane pyrolysis produces hydrogen and solid carbon. Commercialising the carbon black is a key strategy for Ekona and drives the economics of our value proposition.

It’s been a whirlwind of a year at Ekona! Here are some milestones and highlights from the last six months, as we head into 2025.

NRCan and Alberta Innovates funding will support Ekona’s FEED study for a 20-tpd hydrogen production plant.

Ekona’s novel methane pyrolysis platform converts natural gas into hydrogen and solid carbon. CICE’s investment will directly benefit solid carbon management activities at Ekona.

The construction phase of Ekona Gold Creek began in September 2024. Since then, the team has met significant milestones to advance the project.

We were excited to host the Honourable Jonathan Wilkinson, Canada’s Minister of Energy and Natural Resources, at our Burnaby facility on July 9 to announce a $1M investment in Ekona.

It’s almost the end of May and things have been going fast and furious this year at Ekona. It’s time for an update!

Ekona is excited to be partnering with ARC Resources on the first industrial deployment of our methane pyrolysis solution for clean hydrogen production.

Ekona met internal performance milestones in late 2023, validating the xCaliber™ reactor in a 200-kilogram-hydrogen-per-day system and preparing the platform for field deployment.

“If you’re trying to decarbonize your energy system and you’re trying to decarbonize your natural gas usage, which is hard to do, this will be the lowest-cost way to do it.” Read what else Ekona’s CEO, Chris Reid, had to say when he spoke with the Daily Oil Bulletin for a story than ran last week…

For the last three months, our business development and marketing team has been working to develop a new Ekona website. Today’s launch day! We built a new site because we needed to strengthen the connection to our brand and have more functionality than our old site...

We often pause when we hear people talking about the holy grail of clean-energy production. One way to define holy grail is as something eagerly pursued or sought after – we can see the connection here. But other definitions talk about the idea of an unattainable...
