• Congressional Democrats and the White House administration succeeded in passing a law this year that provides sky’s-the-limit funding incentives to clean energy efforts
• While the law appears to be ensured a long and healthy life, there are still hurdles to its implementation in the form of difficulties keeping pace with infrastructure and navigating the funding eligibility process
• Louisiana-based Correlate Infrastructure Partners Inc. (CIPI) is a company focused on helping companies implement climate-friendly changes through effective upgrades in utilities usage and adoption of alternative energy infrastructure
• CIPI also helps clients identify funding opportunities and how to put them to use
• Under the new law, the government has no funding or budget cap for providing incentives to green energy adoption, removing a financial obstacle for companies on the fence over utilities transition

When the Inflation Reduction Act passed through Congress and obtained the president’s signature in August, it ushered in a new era of investment into addressing climate change with unprecedented support for renewable energy. The law established funding for affordable healthcare, prescription drug price reduction, taxation reform, and deficit reduction, but notably for energy concerns it provides financial incentives for electric vehicles and other zero-carbon electricity industries. Louisiana-based clean energy solutions innovator Correlate Infrastructure Partners (OTCQB: CIPI) applauded the law’s passage as al means to boost the company’s efforts to further energy use reform through proprietary analytics and advisement for companies seeking to reduce the carbon footprint of their buildings. CIPI’s experts help its clients navigate the often-turbulent channels of the financing infrastructure to obtain the monetary backing they may need to make needed climate-friendly improvements. Analysts at the investment bank Credit Suisse published a research note in September that observed the credits for renewable energy incentives are uncapped, meaning the law does not establish any limitation on how much the government may spend in regard to the incentives — a true boon to companies that may have been on the fence as far as transitioning their operations to more climate-friendly standards. The bank’s analysts assessed future risks to the law’s green energy provisions as low, because even though it passed along partisan lines without Republican support, the bank believes that Republicans won’t undo it even if they gain a majority in coming elections because any retractions would likely hurt their own voters more than voters in Democratic-majority states. “Republican-leaning states are likely to see the most investment, job, and economic benefits from the IRA,” the analysts’ report claims, as noted in a recent Atlantic editorial (https://ibn.fm/5u8Ec). Credit Suisse’s assessment argues that the United States is in a position to become the world’s leading energy provider, adding to its leading position as an oil and natural gas producer with clean electricity and hydrogen production at a remarkably low cost, even if China retains its prominence in terms of battery production. Correlate Infrastructure’s ability to help clients identify benefits to their financial sheets as well as the global climate may be particularly welcome if the country slides farther toward an economic recession. “Even if the United States slips into recession in the next year, … the IRA’s programs and incentives will keep flowing no matter the macro environment, which makes betting on clean energy one of the most certain economic trends of the next few years. Clean energy is now the safe, smart, government-backed bet for conservative investors,” the Atlantic article states.

• While a tough economic climate has hurt many businesses in recent years, Golden Matrix has amassed a streak of 16 consecutive profitable quarters
• The GMGI portfolio includes over 10,000 games and a turnkey system designed to promote user acquisition, engagement, retention, and monetization
• After buying 80% of RKings International, GMGI is preparing to expand the business from its roots in the U.K. and Ireland into the Latin American markets

The online gambling space is highly competitive, lending to most of the world’s biggest operators burning through tons of cash for marketing in a bid to try and attracts (and keep) customers. That’s cash that comes straight off the bottom line, explaining why many struggle to achieve profitability. That’s certainly not the case for Golden Matrix Group (NASDAQ: GMGI), which continues to experience revenue growth on its way to amassing an impressive streak of 16 straight profitable quarters. The Las Vegas-based upstart is a developer and licensor of highly modular, configurable, and scalable gaming platforms for its international customers designed to promote user acquisition, engagement, retention, and monetization. Golden Matrix white labels its industry-leading GM-AG System that can be custom built from 10,000+ game options for its roughly 650 clients serving about 6.8 million end users. While the coronavirus pandemic was a detriment to many businesses and industries forced to shutter their doors in compliance with distancing orders meant to control the spread of the disease, Golden Matrix experienced growth. It’s well recognized that in times of turmoil, so-called “sin stocks” generally outperform because people generally won’t eliminate vices like gambling, alcohol, and tobacco from their lives. When it comes to gambling, consumers had to become familiar with the digital world with physical businesses closed for months on end. Unfortunately for some operators, business was lost because they simply weren’t prepared for the online demand. As Golden Matrix CEO Brian Goodman recently said in a Benzinga interview, “If you don’t have an online presence in today’s world, then you’re a dinosaur.” Thankfully for Golden Matrix, there were still plenty of dinosaurs roaming around in dire need for customizable mobile and desktop gambling technology. Exclusively operating a business-to-business (“B2B”) model since inception in 2008, Golden Matrix expanded into the business-to-consumer (“B2C”) market late last year with the acquisition of an 80% stake in United Kingdom-based RKingsCompetitions Ltd. RKings runs online raffle competitions throughout England and Ireland. With RKings folded into the mix, Golden Matrix has continued to build momentum during its fiscal year 2022. In the nine months ended July 31, 2022, revenue jumped to $26.46 million, a gain of 237% from $7.84 million in the year earlier period. Net income for the nine months was $1.56 million, up 135% year-over-year, even with added expenses related to the RKings acquisition. Golden Matrix has now been profitable for four consecutive years on a calendar basis. Going forward, the company is preparing to make its initial foray into the Latin American markets in 2023. After acquiring RKings, GMGI secured a gaming license in Mexico and assembled an in-house team fluent in Spanish and Portuguese to overcome any language barriers as it launches its online B2C casino business. With only a few weeks to go in the fiscal year, Golden Matrix will look to run its streak to 17 profitable quarters and 4 straight complete fiscal years.

• Three out of four adults living with hypertension do not have the condition under control, putting them at risk for other serious complications
• Lexaria’s proposed therapy for hypertension is the highly efficient DehydraTECH-CBD, which has presented with no serious adverse side effects in test participants
• Dominated by the North American market, the global antihypertension drug market accounted for $22,557 million in 2018 and is expected to reach $28,797 million by 2026

In the United States, over 121.5 million adults are affected by high blood pressure – with statistics stacked against people of color, those with a family history of high blood pressure, heart disease, stroke, or kidney disease, and women who experienced blood pressure problems during pregnancy. According to the American Heart Association, high blood pressure is defined as a systolic pressure of 130 or higher and a diastolic pressure of 80 or higher that stays high over a period of time (https://ibn.fm/hsXw6). For some, managing high blood pressure is as simple as changing daily habits or being proactive about monitoring it if there is a history or predisposition to the disease. Early detection can protect the brain, reducing the risk of stroke, dementia, and other vascular diseases that affect the brain. Although high blood pressure is not the only risk factor associated, being conscious of it can help preserve the brain’s blood vessels. Unfortunately, three out of four adults do not have their high blood pressure under control, creating an unmet need in the hypertension treatment market. Lexaria Bioscience (NASDAQ: LEXX), a global innovator in drug delivery platforms, is using its patented DehydraTECH(TM) technology to address the unmet needs of adults with high blood pressure (hypertension). DehydraTECH is a patented drug delivery technology that improves the oral administration of Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (“APIs”). The benefits of using DehydraTECH-enabled APIs include the following:

• Improvement of onset speed – effects of the drug are felt in minutes
• Masked unwanted tastes – eliminates the need for sugar-filled edibles
• Increased bioavailability – the technology is more effective at delivering the drug into the bloodstream
• Increased brain absorption – testing has seen up to 27x improvement in the amount of the drug crossing the blood-brain barrier
• Reduction in drug administration costs – the higher ratio of the drug being delivered is expected to lower the overall costs of administration

Lexaria’s initial focus on hypertension has been its DehydraTECH-CBD, which is currently in the IND enabling studies phase and is actively developing lead product pipeline candidates. The advanced hypertension program has delivered positive results with no serious adverse effects, with the most recent being completed in 2021, with 16 participants exhibiting a reduction of attenuated pulmonary artery systolic pressure of approximately 5 mmHg, or 41% overall, in male participants. The company’s corporate presentation lists all of the results – from 2018-2021 (https://ibn.fm/X4psb). Results are pending from Lexaria’s largest ever human clinical trial, where dosing completed in July. According to Allied Market Research, the global antihypertension drug market accounted for $22,557 million in 2018 and is expected to reach $28,797 million by 2026, growing at a CAGR of 3.1% from 2019 to 2026. North America dominates the majority of the drug market. The market’s growth is expected due to the prevalence of hypertension across the globe and the interest in maintaining healthier lifestyles in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic (https://ibn.fm/W8mNR).

• EverGen renews offtake agreement at Fraser Valley Biogas that covers up to 190,000 gigajoules of RNG annually at more favorable pricing compared to original agreement
• Offtake marks key milestone that enables full funding of company’s Core RNG Expansion project at FVB and another step towards its target of 1,000,000 GJ of RNG per year
• Company partnered with Adelaide, investor relation firm with developed network of investors across North America and globally, to raise its visibility before expanded pool of investors as it prepares to embark on rapid expansion chapter in its growth trajectory

EverGen Infrastructure (TSX.V: EVGN) (OTCQX: EVGIF) has announced that its wholly owned subsidiary Fraser Valley Biogas Ltd. has signed a term sheet for a long-term RNG offtake agreement intended to replace the existing agreement as it approaches the end of the term (https://ibn.fm/rw136). As a legal contract in which a buyer agrees to purchase a certain amount of the product at set price points, offtakes are an essential tool for producers to secure a predictable revenue stream for the project and improve access to funding. The term sheet for the new deal, expected to cover the purchase of up to 190,000 gigajoules of RNG annually from FVB, is penned amid considerably stronger market pricing compared to when the facility initially started. This milestone supports full funding of EverGen’s Core RNG expansion project at FVB and marks an important step towards the company’s goal of 1,000,000 GJ of RNG per year from its core RNG expansion and development project portfolio. EverGen acquired Fraser Valley Biogas in 2021 and is currently working to enhance and expand the facility. Located in Abbotsford, BC, Fraser Valley Biogas, has been digesting manure and off-farm organics since 2011, combining anaerobic digestion and biogas upgrading to produce RNG, mainly by processing agricultural waste from local dairy farms. Known as the original producing RNG facility in Western Canada, it is also the first project to produce RNG into FortisBC’s network. “This marks another key milestone for EverGen and underpins our expansion at Fraser Valley Biogas,” said Chase Edgelow, CEO of EverGen. “Our Core RNG expansion projects are fully funded to deliver RNG production of nearly half a million GJ annually, using a solution that captures greenhouse gases to supply low-carbon energy, supporting the energy transition,” he concluded. As EverGen seeks to accelerate growth to achieve ambitious targets, it has partnered with Adelaide Capital, a major investor relations and capital markets advisory firm specializing in small and mid-cap companies, to provide investor relations and consulting services to the company. To respond to the new market reality, growing public companies often need investor relation partners to help them raise their visibility, create investor awareness, improve investor communication, and strengthen relationships with the broader investment community. Through its capital markets program, Adelaide – which prides itself on personal connections to a sizable network of investors across North America and globally – will assist EverGen in activities such as non-deal roadshows, virtual campaigns, conferences, and investor communication. The deal, which is to be approved by the company’s Board of Directors, involves a monthly fee of C$10,000, as well as 15,000 stock options at an exercise price of $2.75 per share and a three-year term. “We are thrilled to be working with Adelaide Capital, who will provide us with a comprehensive investor relations platform and help strengthen our communication with current and prospective shareholders as we pursue our next leg of growth,” said Chase Edgelow as he announced the partnership. Positioned as a leading RNG platform boasting a robust pipeline of projects with the potential to deliver significant RNG volumes and help Canada accelerate the energy transition, EverGen seeks to make a meaningful impact on both the industry and the environment. The company appears to have a strong position to expedite growth as the country’s RNG infrastructure platform as it remains committed to delivering on its ambitious goals for a more sustainable future.

• October declared National Clean Energy Action Month as government mobilizes toward a future powered by sustainable energy and a healthier environment for all
• Although clean energy momentum continues to build, not all green energy sources are created equal; some can still leave significant environmental impact
• GeoSolar seeks to demonstrate that living in carbon-powered homes is no longer necessary; offers homeowners renewable ways to generate electricity without greenhouse gas emissions

As the climate crisis threatens the safety and health of people worldwide, forcing countries to fight weather disasters such as floods, droughts and wildfires, governments around the world – the US included – recognize that the window to prevent devastating consequences is rapidly closing. But as the adage goes, there is opportunity in every crisis. Still, once a crisis is in full swing, turning it into an opportunity often calls for new ways of thinking and responding. That’s where companies like GeoSolar Technologies (“GST”) with its SmartGreen(TM) Home system can step in to help fight against one of the biggest existential challenges of our time by transforming how homeowners heat, cool, and power homes with 100% natural energy sources. “The climate crisis is here. Our Nation — and the world — sits at an inflection point. By investing in clean energy, modernizing our infrastructure, and ensuring that everyone benefits in the process, we can build a safer, healthier, and more energy-secure future,” President Biden said as he proclaimed October 2022 as National Clean Energy Action Month. To address this crisis, the US government has set an aspiring but achievable goal of reaching a 100% clean electricity sector by 2035 and net zero emissions economy-wide by no later than 2050. Actionable steps have been taken to make this formidable goal a reality, including establishing the first National Climate Task Force in history, reinstating, and enhancing environmental protections, and encouraging unprecedented private sector commitments to clean energy transition (https://ibn.fm/P2bBC). With the energy sector accounting for more than 80% of the country’s emissions, it is becoming increasingly clear that the progress toward this aggressive target for slashing the US share of global emissions will rely on tackling energy efficiency. Existing homes are a major cause of the climate crisis since home energy use accounts for one-sixth of total energy consumption in the US (https://ibn.fm/lmlkN). The most effective way to reduce home greenhouse gas emissions is to replace electricity generated from fossil fuels with low- and zero-carbon sources such as wind, solar and geothermal. For that, commitment to investment and innovation is required to bring cleaner energy and lower energy bills for homeowners and businesses. As the country strives to turn the climate crisis into opportunity, the government appears confident that the country can lead the world in producing and exporting clean energy technologies, lowering energy costs, and addressing environmental injustice. The climate crisis is a challenge desperately waiting to be addressed and the cost of the status quo is rising. But as the world continues to grapple with the consequences of climate change, what should not be overlooked is that not all renewable energy is created equal – even if an energy source or means of transport has a smaller carbon footprint, it can still leave a considerable climate footprint. One such example is Kennecott’s 100-year-old Bingham Copper Mine which is developing a new vein of ore in Utah, a state abundant in copper and other minerals essential to creating an electrified economy. While the benefits of a more electrified economy are today largely undisputed, Utahns may still wonder if they come with a high price tag, given that the mine is the state’s largest source of air pollution. Instead, more research efforts, capital investments, and suitable locations for solar, wind and geothermal generation may offer an alternative approach to tackling the climate crisis (https://ibn.fm/L3HmA). In infinite supply and with no or little greenhouse gas emissions, these energy sources are often considered greener as they can deliver more impactful decarbonization in the effort to reach net zero by 2050. With its SmartGreen(TM) Home system that combines solar power, geothermal ground-sourced energy, and other clean energy technologies into one fully integrated system, GeoSolar seeks to empower American homeowners with a cleaner, healthier, and cheaper way to power their homes compared to traditional carbon-based energy systems (https://ibn.fm/3dK0K). Built to replace outdated fossil fuel-driven energy systems, SmartGreen(TM) Home is designed to generate enough renewable energy to power homes without utility bills and drastically reduce their carbon footprint. Offering solutions developed with both conscience and convenience in mind, GeoSolar strives to create a healthier living environment with net zero-carbon homes at its core.

• Correlate Infrastructure Partners Inc. is a provider of environmentally friendly utilities use optimization solutions, utilizing proprietary data-driven analytics and industry expertise to improve outcomes
• CIPI recently formed a partnership with Ultra Yield Solutions (“UYS”) to support clients in the controlled environment agriculture (“CEA”) industry, such as vertical indoor growers
• Under the agreement, UYS will focus on cost-efficient LED lighting solutions while CIPI will deliver renewable energy options and financing opportunities to help make the indoor farming operation even more sustainable
• The global indoor farming market size is expected to reach $44.3 billion this year before growing to $122.3 billion by 2030 at a CAGR of 13.5 percent, with vertical farming comprising the fastest growing segment

Last month, the world’s largest indoor vertical farming operation opened in Pennsylvania with a 140,000-square-foot facility promising about 160 jobs and seven-day-a-week production (https://ibn.fm/AKwG3). The facility is likely to be a harbinger for the growth of indoor vertical farming practices, a subset of the farming technology-driven controlled environment agriculture (“CEA”) industry (https://ibn.fm/77Omd). A competing California company is already planning a larger facility in Virginia (https://ibn.fm/1SM6d). Indoor vertical farming favors leafy green horticulture, one reason it is seen as the modus operandi of the home industry for cannabis where personal use cultivation is legal, as well as the majority of commercial operations (https://ibn.fm/tjaQE). Regardless of the type of agriculture being cultivated, indoor operations are dependent on efficient light strategies to ensure success in a contained environment. Correlate Infrastructure Partners (OTCQB: CIPI) is a Louisiana-based clean energy solutions innovator dedicated to helping commercial operations effectively manage their utilities usage, both for the sake of their financial sheets as well as the resulting benefit to the global environment amid rising concerns about climate change. The company, also known as CIPI for short, recently announced an agreement with CEA lighting distributor Ultra Yield Solutions (“UYS”) to cooperatively sustain clients who need professional indoor farming lighting design, with UYS focusing on LED solutions and CIPI responding with renewable energy and financing solutions. “We are excited to see this partnership transform the CEA space by dramatically reducing the operating costs of urban indoor farming. It will enable operators to reach profitability faster while simultaneously increasing the sustainability and resilience of their businesses,” Correlate’s VP of Sales Jim Fiorentino stated in the Sept. 7 announcement (https://ibn.fm/1TTRl). “Partnering with Correlate allows us to give our CEA customers everything they need to drive operating costs down, improve sustainability and maximize crop yield,” UYS founder and Chairman Chris Brown added. “Because we can handle the entire process from design to development to funding, indoor farmers can now simply focus on what’s important: their crops.” Climate change concerns have drawn increasing awareness to severe weather trends worldwide and their effects on crop harvests. Commercial industries have seen a growing tendency toward transparency in the energy use and carbon emissions of their operations as an effort to show they are socially responsible, measuring the beneficial outcomes of their labors in terms of published environmental, social and governance (“ESG”) factors. Indoor growers are able to avoid many of the vagaries attributable to weather factors. AeroFarms, the company that opened the huge Pennsylvania facility last month, claims it will harvest 26 different crops using up to 95 percent less water than traditional farming and no pesticides, and will do so on a smaller footprint of land than it would need for outdoor harvesting (https://ibn.fm/37Hlo). Analysts at Grand View Research, Inc., reported the global indoor farming market size was valued at $39.5 billion last year and is expected to reach $44.3 billion this year before growing to $122.3 billion by 2030 at a CAGR of 13.5 percent (https://ibn.fm/on78V). The vertical farm segment is expected to be the fastest growing, with a CAGR of 22.9 percent. Such market factors portend a growing demand for cost-efficient and environmentally responsible lighting and energy use solutions such as those advanced by the CIPI and UYS partnership.

• Hypertension affects nearly half of all adults in the United States – 47% or 116 million people, some of which are medication-resistant
• A recent study from the University of Toledo College of Medicine and Life Sciences concluded gut bacteria might be the cause of medication-resistant hypertension – as demonstrated in rats used to conduct the study
• Lexaria’s patented DehydraTECH(TM) technology offers a viable solution for hypertension drug administration and has been received favorably by the FDA during a pre-Investigational New Drug meeting

Hypertension, or high blood pressure, remains one of the world’s most deadly health problems, considered a silent killer because it presents with no symptoms. Nearly half of the adult population in the United States (47% or 116 million) have been diagnosed with hypertension, as defined by having systolic blood pressure greater than 130 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure greater than 80 mmHg or taking medication for the condition (https://ibn.fm/icRSu). Within this category of adults, some fall into a medication-resistant form of hypertension. A new study by The University of Toledo College of Medicine and Life Sciences has shown that gut bacteria may be a culprit for medication-resistant hypertension, solving an elusive mystery that has plagued many Americans and their physicians. The study, conducted using lab rats, concluded that a specific gut bacterium, Coprococcus, was responsible for breaking down the antihypertension medications quinapril and ramipril, resulting in compromised blood pressure-lowering effects. The study also cites a specific instance where a female with medication-resistant hypertension was administered antibiotics two weeks prior to a procedure. Her blood pressure lowered naturally – as the antibiotics depleted the gut bacteria. Although long-term antibiotics are not a viable solution for lowering blood pressure, the group has concluded that more research is necessary (https://ibn.fm/Do8tT). Lexaria Bioscience (NASDAQ: LEXX), a global innovator in drug delivery platforms, is on a mission to transform the way hypertension is treated through its patented technology, DehydraTECH(TM). DehydraTECH improves the bioavailability of pharmaceuticals and therapeutics in part by bypassing first-pass-liver processing. DehydraTECH also provides the following benefits:

• Masks unwanted tastes by eliminating the need for sugar-filled edibles
• Improves the speed of onset, with effects felt in minutes
• Increases bioavailability by more effectively delivering the drug into the bloodstream
• Increases brain absorption, with testing suggesting up to 10x improvement
• Reduces drug administration costs with a higher ratio of drug delivery

Lexaria’s ongoing research into DehydraTECH-CBD for the treatment of hypertension was received favorably by the FDA during the company’s pre-Investigational New Drug (pre-IND) meeting. The FDA agreed with Lexaria’s proposal to pursue a 505(b)(2) new drug application (“NDA”) regulatory pathway for its program. “We are very pleased to have received comments from the FDA toward opening our IND program. We will be executing FDA-confirmed IND-enabling work immediately,” said John Docherty, President of Lexaria (https://ibn.fm/w6Bva). “We were delighted that our proposals were very well received by the FDA, and the feedback received will be very helpful in compiling and filing our IND application as the next major regulatory step we are focused on moving forward.” The global antihypertension drug market was valued at $30.2 billion in 2021. This market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 3%, resulting in a valuation of $40 billion by 2031 (https://ibn.fm/5BQdY). The global CBD market was valued at $5.18 billion in 2021 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 16.8%, resulting in a valuation of $22.05 billion by 2030 (https://ibn.fm/jpju5). Lexaria is leveraging both markets in its current pursuit of hypertension therapies and is positioned to penetrate through the use of its DehydraTECH technology – bringing about viable solutions to solve even the most medication-resistant hypertension through increased bioavailability and absorption of medication for this purpose.

• The UN has announced that the world is facing a global emergency, with up to 354 million people facing famine
• FuelPositive’s Green Ammonia Production System brings zero-carbon options to farms worldwide, offering an alternative means of supporting crops and farm equipment with lower energy costs and emissions
• The green ammonia market is expected to reach $5.48 billion by 2030 – driven by the need to adapt to lower emissions and the necessity to make agriculture more affordable

An announcement from the UN in mid-September issued the warning that the world is facing a global emergency of unprecedented magnitude – up to 345 million people are facing starvation, and 70 million are closer to starvation as a result of Russia’s war in Ukraine. Executive director of the UN’s World Food Program, David Beasley, told the Security Council that the number of people facing food insecurity in the 82 counties where the agency operates is two-and-a-half times the number of acutely food insecure people before the COVID-19 pandemic (https://ibn.fm/Vg5eU). Beasley further expressed concern that 50 million people in 45 countries are suffering from acute malnutrition and are “knocking on famine’s door.” Russia’s blockade of Ukrainian ports to bring Russian fertilizer back to global markets has exacerbated issues – driving up the cost of food and fuel worldwide. FuelPositive (TSX.V: NHHH) (OTCQB: NHHHF), a company focused on licensing, partnership, and acquisition opportunities related to energy-efficient technologies and sustainability, is committed to providing commercially viable and sustainable clean energy solutions, including green ammonia, for use across a vast number of industries and applications. The opportunities for green ammonia are significant, with 80 percent of the world’s ammonia being used in the agricultural sector. FuelPositive’s on-farm alternative has the potential to significantly reduce the carbon dioxide emissions impacting the world due to the use of fertilizer in agricultural settings. The company’s green ammonia production system is a solution that decarbonizes and decentralizes the production of ammonia, providing farmers with the amount needed, when it is needed, and at stable pricing. FuelPositive’s system allows farmers to house green ammonia production on-site, the means to fertilize their crops, and power their internal combustion engines, generators, and other farm equipment more cost-effectively. Traditional fertilizer methods (manure) present environmental impacts like runoff of nitrogen-rich materials into waterways and water tables and cause significant detriment to air and water quality. Using deep injection of green ammonia cuts the emissions associated with manure. Still, the company acknowledges that more work is necessary to continue reducing the greenhouse gasses associated with ammonia and all nitrogen fertilizers. FuelPositive is committed to supporting best farming practices for emission reduction, which is crucial to its ability to fulfill a cradle-to-cradle commitment. Having already tackled the problem of carbon emissions in its product, the company is working with agricultural sector advisors to identify how to use its fertilizer in a way that results in the lowest amount of pollution possible. Pilot projects are in the planning stage with multiple scientists, working with leading Canadian universities.

Although the green ammonia market is still in the planning stages, it was valued at $36 million in 2021. The market is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 74.78% from 2022 to 2030, resulting in a value of $5.48 billion. The driving factors of the industry’s growth can be attributed to the shift to zero-carbon emissions and the strict pollution rules with zero emission emphasis. By 2032, the green ammonia share of the overall market is anticipated to reach 3-4 percent, with a preference for green ammonia over traditional fertilizer methods (https://ibn.fm/BW7m2).
