Stonegate Capital Initiates Coverage on HyOrc Corporation, Highlighting Green Methanol Production Potential

Stonegate Capital Partners has initiated coverage on HyOrc Corporation (OTCQB: HYOR), a company focused on converting refuse-derived fuel (RDF) into green methanol. The announcement, made on July 29, 2026, highlights HyOrc's process of turning prepared municipal and industrial waste into synthesis gas, cleaning and conditioning it, and converting it into methanol via catalytic synthesis. Stonegate views the core equity story as less about broad clean-tech exposure and more about whether HyOrc can translate its pilot and equipment-delivery history into commercial-scale methanol production.

HyOrc targets green methanol production at approximately €350 per tonne, significantly lower than the conventional grey methanol benchmark of about €850 per tonne. However, the company must still prove these economics in continuous commercial operation. The clearest near-term validation is the planned shipment of its fully funded initial 1 tonne per day (TPD) Porto methanol module in September 2026, which serves as the first step toward an 8 TPD Portugal facility. Successful installation and operation of this module could provide critical evidence of the technology's viability at scale.

Beyond methanol, HyOrc is developing external-combustion power systems for stationary generation and locomotive retrofits. The delivery of two 500 kW turbine units and a memorandum of understanding with GB Railfreight offer early reference points, though both opportunities remain ahead of full commercial deployment. Stonegate's initiation of coverage suggests growing investor interest in HyOrc's potential to disrupt the green methanol market, but the company faces significant hurdles in proving its technology can operate continuously and cost-effectively at commercial scale.
