Vancouver, Canada, July 21, 2021. Green Impact Partners Inc. (“GIP” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce the commencement of construction of the first project in its development pipeline. The Company has closed on the Operating Agreement for GreenGas Colorado, LLC (“GreenGas”), which holds the rights to a renewable natural gas (“RNG”) project located in Weld County, Colorado (the “Project”). The Project has a total construction cost of approximately CAD $76 million. It is anticipated to achieve commercial operations in the second half of 2022 with forecasted annual run-rate EBITDA of CAD$20 million.
The Project, through an anerobic digestion and gasification process, converts organic waste from two dairy farms into RNG, which will be directly connected into existing gas pipeline infrastructure. The Project is expected to generate over 800 MMBtu per day of RNG. GIP intends to sell its credits into the California Low Carbon Fuel Standard (“LCFS”) and Renewable Identification Number (“RIN”) markets through a long-term offtake agreement with a creditworthy counterparty. With an anticipated carbon intensity score of approximately negative 200, the Project optimizes value received under the LCFS and RIN markets and is fully aligned with GIP’s net zero impact strategy.
“With increasing global need to transition to environmentally friendly alternatives to gas consumption, executing on our RNG projects is a key focus for us” says Jesse Douglas, CEO. “This is one of North America’s strongest negative carbon impact projects and we’re excited to build, own and operate it for the long term.”
