Record Resources Offers Potential AI Power Demand Solution with Natural Hydrogen Assets Across Three Key Properties Offsetting Existing Industry Discoveries
Calgary, Alberta--(Newsfile Corp. - March 18, 2026) - Record Resources (TSXV: REC), which owns three strategically located natural hydrogen properties in Ontario, plans to further assess the company's options to non-dilutively unlock value for its shareholders in order to capitalize on the AI-driven demand for natural hydrogen as a key power source for the industry.
The driving factor for Record's natural hydrogen proprieties is the emerging, critical, high-efficiency requirement to supply 24/7 baseload power for the surging energy demands of AI (Artificial Intelligence) data centers, as power consumption is projected to more than double by 2030 to roughly 945 terawatt-hours (TWh). This is quadruple the current power draw, necessitating a rapid shift from traditional grid reliance to independent power solutions, according to IEA reports.
Lorrain-Bucke Natural Hydrogen Property
Record's Lorrain-Bucke natural hydrogen property is located at Lake Temiskaming, Ontario and is 100 percent owned by the company. Lorrain-Bucke is adjacent to Quebec Innovative Materials Corporation's (QIMC.CN; over CDN $240 million market capitalization) hydrogen discovery. The Lorrain-Bucke property is strategically located between major rift faults in the Lake Temiskaming Graben structure, a tectonic feature recognized for its potential to host deep mantle-derived volatile-rich sources, including hydrogen. Hydrogen anomalies were identified at Lorraine-bucke by QIMC and Marc Richer-Lafleche of Quebec's Institut National de Recherche Scientifique (INRS) during the winter of 2025.
Paradis Bay Natural Hydrogen Property
The Paradis Bay 27 claims are located five kilometres west of the town of Ville Marie, Quebec, near the claims held by QIMC and border the town of Paradis Bay, Ontario. The claims are located along the eastward dipping Lake Timiskaming West Shore Fault system. In this area the sedimentary and volcanic formations dip westward and potentially create structural and hydrological conditions that can trap the accumulation of gases that contain hydrogen. The discovery of natural hydrogen gas seeps in the Lake Timiskaming area located on the border of Ontario and Quebec. Lake Timiskaming is located on the eastern boundary of a rift zone approximately 50 kilometres wide bounded by a series of northwest-southeast trending faults.
