CO2 GRO Inc. Announces the Completion of Its Largest Commercial Aqueous CO2 Enrichment Project in Canada

TORONTO, ON / ACCESSWIRE / March 28, 2024 / Toronto based CO2 GRO Inc. ("CO2 GRO" or the "Company") (TSXV:GROW)(OTCQB:BLONF)(Frankfurt:4021) is thrilled to announce the successful installation and commissioning of its largest commercial project in Canada.

Spanning an impressive 3 hectares, this cutting-edge facility is designed to revolutionize the cultivation of long English and mini cucumbers with its state-of-the-art aqueous CO2 enrichment technology.

The project, valued at approximately CAD $500 thousand, is a testament to CO2 GRO Inc.'s commitment to sustainable agriculture and was completed under a PFU (Purchase For Use) contract.

It incorporates a sophisticated misting system, an infusion system, and a Dynamic Monitoring & Control System, all accessible through an online digital dashboard for optimal operational efficiency. This venture follows a successful commercial contract based on data and reference with Cucumber Man TAP in Alberta in 2022, further solidifying CO2 GRO Inc.'s position as a leader in agricultural innovation.

The newly commissioned facility will serve a crucial role in the direct-to-store distribution of cucumbers across Canada, marking a significant milestone in CO2 GRO Inc.'s ongoing efforts to enhance crop yield, profitability, and sustainability through technology.

Aaron, a key spokesperson for CO2 GRO Inc., and the company's VP of Sales, expressed his enthusiasm for the project, stating:

"We are proud to have commissioned our largest commercial project in Canada to date. One of the main reasons for installing our technology is CO2 savings. The grower has been purchasing liquid CO2 for enrichment in the greenhouse during spring through fall.

"Despite this, atmospheric CO2 levels in the greenhouse were not getting above 500 ppm during the day due to venting. Our C-stainable Crop Enhancement technology will save this grower up to 200 MT of purchased CO2 per year, or between $100,000 to $200,000 per year.

"In addition, our aqueous CO2 enrichment will also provide greater plant energy balance resulting in increased production, revenue, and profit. We look forward to installing more commercial projects in Canada and around the world."

CO2 GRO Inc.'s latest project is a landmark achievement in the field of agricultural technology, offering a glimpse into the future of sustainable farming practices.

By reducing the need for purchased CO2 and enhancing plant growth, CO2 GRO Inc. is paving the way for more efficient and environmentally friendly agriculture.
