Acceleware Secures $1.31 Million to Advance Decarbonization Efforts
Acceleware Receives Significant Funding from CRIN
Acceleware Ltd. is thrilled to share exciting news about securing a non-dilutive grant funding of up to $1.31 million from the Clean Resource Innovation Network. As an industry leader dedicated to pioneering technology that aids the decarbonization of industrial heat processes, this funding marks a critical milestone for the company's ambitious projects.
Overview of the Project
The funding will facilitate the redeployment of upgraded subsurface components at the Marwayne RF XL pilot project. This innovative initiative aims to significantly enhance heating processes and support the subsequent phases of the experiment. Eligible costs for this funding are set between a defined period ensuring that Acceleware is positioned for progress from January 2024 to September 2025.
With this funding, Acceleware is looking to address significant challenges in the oil and gas industry by accelerating the development and commercialization of clean technologies. The investment from the Government of Canada through the Strategic Innovation Fund emphasizes its commitment to supporting projects that can dramatically enhance environmental performance.
Confirmation of Matching Funding Sources
This grant is contingent on confirming that matching funds are secured for the planned project. Acceleware has already initiated efforts to gather a total of $5 million needed for comprehensive project financing, of which some amounts are already committed. This proactive approach underscores Acceleware's dedication to ensuring the success of its innovative projects.
Statements from Leadership
Geoff Clark, CEO of Acceleware, expressed gratitude for CRIN’s ongoing support, stating, “Securing this funding crucially supports our RF XL project, which is close to proving commercial viability. The potential of RF XL to reduce heavy oil production costs while minimizing emissions opens new avenues for economic growth in Alberta and beyond.”
CRIN’s Director of Operations, Glen McCrimmon, echoed this sentiment by emphasizing that the funding contributes to both environmental sustainability and economic advancement through innovative technologies.
Understanding RF XL Technology
The RF XL platform is anticipated to be revolutionary for heavy oil and oil sands production. Not only will it completely eradicate direct greenhouse gas emissions, it will also eliminate the consumption of fresh water, significantly minimizing the project's land usage. This technology promises to dramatically lower both capital and operational costs, making it a viable solution in the energy transition landscape.
Wider Applications of Electromagnetic Heating
Acceleware is at the forefront of commercializing multiple industrial heating applications. The implementation of electromagnetic heating is one of several initiatives that the company is actively exploring in collaboration with CTI. This includes initiatives aimed at decarbonizing processes within sectors such as mining and steel manufacturing.
Commitment to Indigenous Collaboration
In a move that stands out in corporate responsibility, Acceleware has partnered with the Saa Dene Group to launch Acceleware | Kisâstwêw. This venture focuses on enhancing the recognition and adoption of Acceleware’s technologies while ensuring respect for the values important to Indigenous communities, such as sustainability of land, water, and air quality.
