BluSky Carbon, an entry into the carbon removal clean technology sector, has entered into a master services agreement with Scotia BioChar.
The agreement relates to provision of manufacturing equipment and consulting services related to biochar production.
Scotia BioChar is headquartered in Bedford, Nova Scotia, Canada and aims to become a producer of high-quality biochar from waste wood biomass found in central Nova Scotia.
Several regional biomass sources are available, including the approximately 20 million tonnes of trees blown down during Hurricane Fiona (2022).
The Agreement has an initial term of one year, during which Scotia will have the ability to issue SOWs, with each SOW indicating the type of work/service sought by Scotia from the Company, and the anticipated remuneration for the same.
Under the terms of the Agreement, Scotia is obligated to deal exclusively with the Company with respect to the provision of equipment and services as contemplated by the Agreement, and the Company shall have the ability to accept or object to any particular SOW.
By utilising the pyrolysis technology and services to be provided by BluSky under the Agreement, Scotia intends to generate biochar for use in applications such as: mine reclamation, chemically contaminated site remediation; agriculture crops and livestock; asphalt and concrete; as well as wastewater and water treatment.
Liz MacKenzie, president of Scotia BioChar Inc. stated: “I am delighted to have the opportunity to work with the BluSky team as we advance towards industrial-scale biochar production in Eastern Canada.
“The opportunity is significant and a win-win for regional industries and the environment. The BluSky technology is a great fit and we can’t wait to get a Vulcan system deployed in Nova Scotia.”
BluSky CEO Will Hessert stated: “The Scotia Biochar team has been diligently working towards deploying a biochar production facility in Nova Scotia. On that journey, they’ve become incredibly knowledgeable about biochar production technologies, byproducts, and more. We are honored that they have given their faith in BluSky, both in our technology and our expertise. Exciting times and a great opportunity for Nova Scotia”.
