🌍 Big News for Nova Scotia and the Future of Energy! 🌱 We’re thrilled to announce the launch of our Canadian Sustainable Fuels Project in Goldboro, Nova Scotia! Formerly proposed as the Goldboro LNG site, this location is now set to become a major Renewable Energy Park (REP). Our project will focus on sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) pushing Nova Scotia to the forefront of the clean energy revolution. 🌿 Hugh Kelly, CEO & Co-Founder of Simply Blue Group, says: " We are very excited to be developing the Goldboro site into a renewable energy park. The sustainable aviation fuel that we will produce there will play an essential part in reducing dependence on fossil fuels and combating climate change.” He continued: “SAF is a drop-in fuel that matches the performance of conventional jet fuel while reducing greenhouse gas emissions by approximately 90% compared to conventional jet fuel.” Construction begins in 2026, with full operation expected by 2029, creating hundreds of jobs and boosting local economic growth! 🚧💼 Tory Rushton, Minister of Natural Resources and Renewables said: "Nova Scotia is poised to become a leader in green hydrogen. This industry will help us, and our global partners fight climate change, and it will grow our green economy in Nova Scotia with benefits for generations to come. We’re pleased to see Simply Blue Group investing in this budding new industry in Nova Scotia. They’re going to make a big difference in the transportation sector with aviation and marine fuel. And as a new market for our low-grade wood fibre, they will help our forestry sector be healthy and strong.” Michael Galvin, Simply Blue Group’s COO - Hydrogen and Sustainable Fuels said: “It’s great to be finally launching this project. A lot of work has gone on in the background with three years of due-diligence and engineering completed, and we have already signed a supply agreement with Wagner Forest NS Ltd. to act as an agent in sourcing 700,000 tonnes of green biomass per annum.” For more see here  https://lnkd.in/eQfPAyux #SustainableFuels #NovaScotia #Goldboro #ClimateAction #RenewableEnergy #CleanFuture #SAF
