sustainable bioenergy resource. The company is active in Ontario and
Newfoundland. The company has developed an environmentally acceptable harvesting
and processing system to supply consistent quality peat fuel in long-term (+ 20
year) contracts to utilities and other industrial operations for heat and power
generation. The Company is also investigating development of value-added
biocarbon derivatives from peat pellets such as activated carbon for which there
is growing demand in many industrial and domestic applications.
