Hyliion Holdings Corp. (NYSE:HYLN), a developer of sustainable electricity-producing technology, today announced it has been awarded a $6 million grant from the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Methane Emissions Reduction Program. For this project, representing a total of $8.4 million in federal and non-federal funding, Hyliion will install up to 2 megawatts of KARNO generators in collaboration with oil and gas partners.
The project will demonstrate the KARNO generator's unique ability to operate on well-head gas to produce sustainable, near-zero emissions electricity. In 2023, Hyliion successfully tested gas from the Permian Basin, highlighting the generator's fuel-agnostic design and its capability to utilize unprocessed gas. This distinctive capability positions the KARNO generator as a groundbreaking solution for reducing flaring and methane emissions while delivering efficient, scalable power.
