DiagnaMed Holdings Corp. specialising in technological solutions for the hydrogen has announced its support for Québec Innovative Materials Corp. as part of its efforts to make hydrogen a primary energy source in Quebec. This collaboration aligns with the province’s mandate to reduce its emissions by 38% by 2030 and achieve net-zero emissions by 2050.
Innovative technology for hydrogen production
DiagnaMed, whose innovative technology is developed by the HOPE group at Texas Tech University, will contribute its expertise in electromagnetic heating for hydrogen production. This technology allows for the direct extraction of hydrogen from oil reservoirs and natural hydrogen deposits, a promising advancement in the hydrogen sector. The partnership focuses on producing low-cost, carbon-neutral hydrogen, a crucial goal for Quebec’s energy transition.
Promising results in St-Bruno-de-Guigues
On February 26, 2025, QIMC revealed the results of its preliminary research in the St-Bruno-de-Guigues region, in the Lake Timiskaming basin, where commercial possibilities for large-scale natural hydrogen production have been identified. These findings could generate a commercial value of several billion dollars. The collaboration between DiagnaMed and QIMC aims to accelerate the exploitation of this resource, with a particular focus on implementing cost-effective and environmentally responsible solutions.
Strategic support from DiagnaMed
Fabio Chianelli, President and CEO of DiagnaMed, expressed his enthusiasm about the results obtained by QIMC and the strategic importance of this collaboration. He highlighted the potential impact on the natural hydrogen market, particularly in terms of innovation and profitability.
