A large-scale greenhouse cannabis growing operation in East Ladner has made the switch to renewable natural gas with a new production facility that utilizes methane gas from the Vancouver Landfill.
Village Farms previously explained that its the renewed and extended LFG contract with the City of Vancouver, which operates the landfill, enables the operation to transition to a more attractive long-term business model based on the conversion to high-demand RNG, which will also generate food-grade liquid CO2, significantly reducing the reliance on natural gas to produce CO2 in their operations.
Village Farms will receive a royalty on all revenue generated from the RNG facility, which is owned and operated by Terreva.
