en.Wedoany.com Reported - Hazer Group Limited reported progress in manufacturing readiness for the commercial deployment of its methane pyrolysis technology, as well as developments in graphite monetization and project partnerships, in its quarterly update for the period ending March 31, 2026.

The company stated in its ASX announcement that the Process Design Package (PDP) completed with KBR after the quarter-end is a key step towards standardizing plant designs for large-scale manufacturing applications, enabling it to offer customers rapidly deployable solutions. This PDP supports a facility with an annual hydrogen production capacity of 30,000 tonnes and associated graphite production, laying the groundwork for broader commercial licensing and deployment of the technology.

Managing Director Glenn Corrie said this milestone "enhances the commercial manufacturing readiness of the Hazer Process" and strengthens the ability to convert project opportunities into tangible outcomes through KBR's global network.

The company also advanced its graphite strategy, including signing a non-binding Memorandum of Understanding and a Letter of Intent for offtake with Green Steel WA. The proposed agreement covers the supply of up to 85,000 tonnes of graphite over 10 years, with deliveries expected to commence from 2030, subject to further validation. Independent testing confirmed that the graphite product produced by Hazer meets standards for use in concrete and asphalt, opening a potential entry point into the infrastructure-related manufacturing market. The testing indicates the material can improve durability and support emission reduction in construction applications.

The company reported ongoing commercial engagements in the steel, construction, and industrial sectors, with project opportunities advancing both domestically in Australia and in overseas markets such as India and Japan. Early work on the proposed facility in British Columbia, Canada, in partnership with FortisBC, continues to progress with KBR's support.

With the completion of the Process Design Package and the broadening of graphite application scenarios, Hazer Group is steadily enhancing its manufacturing readiness level for transitioning its technology from the demonstration phase to scaled commercial deployment.
