The NRC grant arrives at a pivotal moment, as global operators face mounting pressure to abate methane emissions, retire open flares, and generate on-site power without adding carbon. Questor’s 1500kW ORC converts both high- and low-temperature waste heat into dispatchable electricity that can be consumed on-site or exported to the grid, and is engineered as the natural companion to the Company’s Q-Series Thermal Oxidizers. Together, the integrated thermal oxidizer-plus-ORC package delivers what operators have been asking for: near-zero methane and GHG emissions paired with a new, quantifiable revenue stream from avoided power purchases, turning what was once a regulatory cost centre into a margin-positive asset.

This positions the Company to meet that demand with the only Canadian-engineered solution at this capacity.
