Enerkem’s new CEO at the helm

Enerkem recently announce the appointment of Michel Chornet as its new chief executive officer, succeeding Dominique Boies in this role.
This announcement follows a series of important changes to prepare for the next phase of the company’s growth.
Michel Chornet, already an integral part of Enerkem’s leadership team for many years, assumes the role of CEO with immediate effect.
Michel succeeds Dominique Boies, who has been steering Enerkem through pivotal milestones over the past seven years.
Under his leadership, Enerkem achieved significant milestones, including critical phases like the launch of Enerkem’s first-of-a-kind commercial project Varennes Carbon Recycling currently in construction in Quebec, advancing multiple major projects and securing strategic financial partnerships.
Michel said: “Dominique has laid a robust foundation for Enerkem’s future success, and I am honored to build upon the foundation.
“Dominique will forever be part of Enerkem’s journey, and we extend our heartfelt thanks for his contributions.”
Looking ahead, Michel emphasised Enerkem’s commitment to building upon its current achievements.
"Our focus remains on accelerating commercialisation efforts to help decarbonize the hard-to-abate sectors around the globe," Michel noted.
“We strongly believe we have the best available technology to decarbonize the maritime industry via our low carbon biomethanol, aviation via our best of class 2^nd generation SAF, and circular chemicals. I am very proud to lead the organisation and our exceptional pool of talents as we embark on this new chapter and I am confident in our collective ability to achieve greatness.”
