Xebec’s order backlog has increased by some 600% in the last few months to over C$ 65 million, driven by solid demand for our cleantech solutions in the hydrogen and biogas upgrading space, and these facilities will play an important role in our ability to deliver these orders and continue to profitably grow Xebec.”

“Supporting clean technology solutions like those developed, engineered and manufactured by Xebec is a priority for EDC. We are particularly pleased to support one of our Cleantech Export Stars as they expand internationally and bring more of their innovative hydrogen and biogas purification technology solutions to the world.”
