StormFisher Appoints Brandon Moffatt as New CEO to Lead Growth Initiatives

In a significant leadership change, StormFisher, a leading Canadian company in low-carbon energy solutions, has appointed co-founder Brandon Moffatt as its new Chief Executive Officer (CEO), succeeding Judson Whiteside. This executive transition comes at a pivotal moment for the company as it aims to accelerate its innovative energy projects across North America.
Moffatt, who has been instrumental in the company's development since its inception, brings a wealth of experience in managing complex energy projects from conception through to construction. His deep understanding of the company's operations and partnerships positions him well to guide StormFisher into its next phase of growth.
"It is an honor for me to take on this role," Moffatt stated. "Our priorities are clear: we aim to reach the final investment decision for the Varennes project, collaborate closely with our shareholders, lenders, and government partners, especially in Quebec, and keep the company focused on delivering results, upheld by a strong execution ethos."
Nishka Gupta, co-chair of the Board and senior vice president at ARC Financial, expressed her gratitude to Jud Whiteside for his leadership contributions during his tenure. "As co-founder who has spearheaded the Varennes project’s development, Brandon is well-acquainted with our project, our partners, and our team; the Board has full confidence in his leadership moving forward."
The Varennes project represents a landmark initiative aimed at establishing North America’s first large-scale e-methanol plant. With an investment approaching $1 billion, this state-of-the-art facility will convert clean hydrogen and captured CO₂ into low-carbon methanol, contributing to a local 100% supply chain. Designed to produce 72,000 tons of e-methanol annually, it will also capture and reuse 100,000 tons of CO₂ each year.
StormFisher remains committed to advancing the Varennes project and expanding its presence in Quebec, where the company continues to engage with local suppliers, partners, and communities. The project significantly contributes to developing a low-carbon fuel sector tailored for both export and local markets, aiding emissions reductions in hard-to-electrify sectors such as shipping, aviation, and heavy industry.
