Preferred Carbon Group (PCG) develops and creates GHG offsets from both projects it owns directly and manages for its partners. PCG is active in tillage, manure management, and other potential agronomic based offsets. Through this partnership PCG offers a number of innovative programs that build on both FE and PCG's abilities to create value at the farm level. These programs offer industry leading products and services that maximize carbon values and engage the farmer on an ongoing basis with education and market intelligence. If you are a farmer in western Canada and are interested please contact us for more details and to receive your copy of our guide to carbon contracting.
PCG is currently the only firm making carbon based investments on farms in Western Canada. With its lagoon cover program, PCG makes a significant investment on farms with large scale hog operations. PCG's most recent project at Starlite Colony in Manitoba is an excellent example of an investment that benefits the hog sector today. This project adds to PCG's other covered lagoons in Alberta. This particular project will also benefit from the research being conducted on it by the U of M BioSystems Engineering department on methane production, crop nutrient management, and odor control.
PCG extends its experience to other related project types in the renewable energy area including biogas projects that capture and destroy methane, methane avoidance, and biogas to power. Other renewable energy projects include biomass, and in particular, wood waste and other biomass to power.
