Graphitic Energy Pilot Plant

Graphitic Energy has commissioned a pilot plant to produce low-cost clean hydrogen and graphite using advanced methane pyrolysis technology that splits natural gas into hydrogen and solid graphite with lower emissions than conventional hydrogen production. The pilot, supported by Technip Energies’ collaboration to scale the technology, will generate clean hydrogen for testing and demonstration while producing valuable solid carbon (graphite) as a co-product, advancing commercial readiness of Graphitic’s process. The pilot supports development of a scalable clean hydrogen pathway with potential applications in industrial decarbonization, energy storage, and advanced materials. It represents a key step toward larger deployments of methane decarbonization technology that can deliver hydrogen with reduced carbon footprint and generate solid carbon products for industrial markets. Project participants (1) Graphitic Energy – Developer and pilot operator, advancing its methane pyrolysis clean hydrogen and graphite production process. (2) Technip Energies – Engineering partner supporting design, scale-up studies, and technology integration to prepare for commercial scale adoption of the process. The pilot underscores progress in low-carbon hydrogen and carbon utilization technologies, demonstrating early-stage performance and economics ahead of larger build-out.
