Senator Joe Manchin Visits Graphitic Energy’s Methane Pyrolysis Pilot Plant

Graphitic Energy was honored to host former West Virginia Senator and Chair of the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee, Sen. Joseph Manchin III, at our pilot facility last week.  During the tour, we showcased our proprietary methane pyrolysis technology which produces clean hydrogen and solid graphitic carbon from natural gas. Senator Manchin and our team discussed the technology’s potential to create high-paying U.S. jobs, while utilizing abundant natural gas resources to onshore the production of graphite - acritical mineral used in everything from steel production to batteries. The Senator’s visit reinforces the growing national interest in methane pyrolysis as a practical solution for decarbonizing hydrogen production and onshoring the supply chain for critical minerals.

We thank Senator Manchin for his continued leadership and advocacy for a lower-carbon future in the United States.
