Hyorc Corporation Advances Fabrication of First European Commercial Waste-To-Methanol Module HyOrc Corporation announced significant manufacturing progress on its first modular waste-to-methanol facility destined for Porto, Portugal. Physical fabrication is actively advancing on the factory floor, with major process vessels, control systems, ORC modules, piping assemblies, and critical mechanical components well underway as the Company drives toward final assembly, testing, and shipment. Engineered for rapid, plug-and-play deployment, the initial commercial module is designed to process approximately 3 tonnes per day of Refuse Derived Fuel (RDF) into up to 1 tonne per day of green methanol. This deployment serves as a pivotal commercial demonstration of HyOrc's integrated, highly efficient waste-to-energy platform. Beyond its disruptive waste-to-methanol production, HyOrc's scalable technology portfolio encompasses waste gasification, hydrogen-compatible power systems, and integrated industrial energy recovery solutions. These systems are uniquely engineered to address critical energy demands across high-growth sectors, including data centres, rail, mining, and heavy industry. HyOrc believes the combination of affordable feedstocks, high-efficiency energy conversion and modular deployment positions the Company to address a growing global demand for commercially viable clean energy infrastructure.

HyOrc Validated for Green Methanol Economics With First Commercial Unit Funded and Scheduled HyOrc has been profiled by Lux Research, which validated the company’s targeted green methanol production economics, highlighted an addressable market of more than $20 billion across low‑carbon maritime fuel and Sustainable Aviation Fuel, and confirmed its first modular commercial unit is fully funded and scheduled for shipment to Portugal in September 2026.
The Lux Research profile gives HyOrc external, third‑party visibility on both its cost targets and commercialization timetable, with operational data from the Portugal unit expected to be a key proof point for the technology.
HyOrc’s stock trades at $0.08, with a year‑to‑date return of 45.5%, putting recent performance well ahead of shorter‑term moves.
The main investor angle is that HyOrc now has independent validation and funding in place, but the investment case likely hinges on whether the 2026 Portugal deployment can deliver operational data that matches these economic claims. Announcement • May 06
HyOrc Corporation Provides Update on Waste-To-Methanol Platform Following Technology Validation HyOrc Corporation shared an update on the commercial positioning of its waste-to-methanol platform following the Company’s recently announced independent validation by Bureau Veritas. Based on validated process performance and internal engineering analysis, HyOrc estimates a preliminary levelized cost of methanol production of approximately EUR 350–EUR 370 per tonne under assumed Refuse-Derived Fuel (RDF) feedstock conditions. The Company’s model incorporates a negative-cost feedstock structure, in which municipal waste streams generate tipping fee revenues that support overall project economics. Published regional contract methanol pricing, including European benchmarks reported by Methanex, has recently reflected levels materially above the Company’s estimated production cost range under prevailing market conditions. While methanol pricing remains cyclical and influenced by underlying energy markets, HyOrc believes its cost profile positions the platform to compete effectively within conventional markets, with additional potential upside from premium pricing associated with certified low-carbon fuels, particularly under long-term, contract-based supply arrangements. The Company is currently advancing its initial commercial projects, including a 35 TPD RDF to 8 TPD methanol facility in Porto, Portugal and a 150 TPD RDF to 38 TPD methanol project in Varna, Bulgaria, with both projects supported by land access, permitting frameworks, environmental approvals, and local partnerships. The cost estimates presented are preliminary and remain subject to final engineering, financing, and operating assumptions, including feedstock composition, plant configuration, and scale. HyOrc continues to advance project development, financing discussions, and commercial arrangements to underpin its planned deployment activities.
