Birchtech (TSX: BCHT) strongly supports the EPA and President Trump's recent Proclamation granting a two-year exemption to 47 coal-fired power plants from the Biden Administration's enhanced Mercury Air Toxics Standards (MATS). The exemption delays compliance with the 2024 Clean Power Plan 2.0 requirements from July 2027 until 2029.
These plants will continue operating under the original 2011 MATS regulation, which requires 90% mercury emissions reduction. Birchtech's SEA® technology is currently deployed by approximately 80% of U.S. coal-fired fleet using sorbent-based mercury capture.
The affected utilities, many of which are Birchtech customers, will maintain operations under existing standards, supporting grid stability. Coal-fired generation currently provides 16% of U.S. electricity production. An additional two-year extension may be considered, though details are pending.

Birchtech Corp. (TSX: BCHT) has announced a $5.0 million share repurchase program authorized by its Board of Directors. The program will allow the company to buy back its common stock using proceeds from expected IP wins and licensing agreements.
CEO Richard MacPherson emphasized that this initiative reflects confidence in the company's strategy and long-term potential. The repurchases, scheduled to begin no earlier than the second half of 2025, can be executed through various methods including open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, block trades, and accelerated share repurchase transactions.
The program has no expiration date or minimum share requirement and can be modified or terminated at any time. The timing and volume of repurchases will be determined by factors including market conditions, share price, regulatory requirements, and corporate liquidity needs.
Birchtech Corp. (TSX:BCHT) has responded to the EPA's recent reconsideration of Mercury and Air Toxics Standards (MATS) and Clean Power Plan 2.0, viewing it as a positive development for their mercury emissions capture technologies. The EPA's March 12, 2025 announcement proposes rolling back Biden-era tightened emissions standards, while maintaining baseline MATS regulations.
The regulatory shift aims to prevent premature coal-fired power plant closures and potentially reactivate shuttered facilities to meet increasing electricity demand driven by AI growth. Rather than eliminating mercury emissions regulations entirely, the rollback provides utilities more operational flexibility while still requiring mercury mitigation.
Birchtech emphasizes that their patented technology remains essential for coal plants to maintain environmental compliance, as state-level regulations and corporate sustainability initiatives continue driving emissions reduction demand. The company views the extended operational life of coal plants under this policy as beneficial for their core business of providing mercury capture solutions.
