PROGRESSIVE PLANET POURS FIRST POZGLASS SCM
Progressive Planet Solutions Inc. has provided a detailed shareholder update.
Progressive Planet has provided details of first concrete pour of PozGlass SCM
While pursuing the defined milestones for the PozGlass pilot plant, Progressive Planet concurrently procured used equipment which it used to produce approximately one metric tonne of finished PozGlass SCM powder.
Progressive Planet supplied a sufficient amount of PozGlass SCM powder to substitute 20 per cent of the Portland cement in six cubic metres of ready-mix concrete blended to pour a series of structural pads inside the PozGlass pilot plant building at 734 Sarcee St. East. The pour was completed today.
"Today is a historic day for Progressive Planet. I want to thank my co-founder, Dave Richardson, and the entire team at Progressive Planet. I also want to thank the National Research Council of Canada industrial research assistance program and the B.C. Innovative Clean Energy Fund for their support of this project," stated Steve Harpur, chief executive officer.
Progressive Planet is receiving advisory services and funding from the National Research Council of Canada industrial research assistance program and from the B.C. Innovative Clean Energy Fund in support of this project, which is broken down into four annual milestones.
"This marks an exciting step forward in British Columbia's clean technology and low-carbon innovation journey. Through support from the B.C. Innovative Clean Energy Fund, we're proud to help advance made-in-B.C. solutions that reduce emissions, strengthen local economies and create good jobs. Progressive Planet's success demonstrates how collaboration between government, industry and research can drive real progress toward a cleaner, more sustainable future," said Adrian Dix, B.C. Minister of Energy and Climate Solutions.
The small-scale batch plant has been disassembled to make room for the installation of all the new equipment, which has arrived for the PozGlass pilot plant phase 1 buildout. Progressive Planet will continue to post regular construction updates on the company's LinkedIn page.
