ArkeaBio™

ArkeaBio™ is proud to announce that we have been named a semi-finalist in the Agricultural Methane Reduction Challenge (AMRC), funded through Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada/ Agriculture et Agroalimentaire Canada (AAFC). Congratulations to all other semi-finalists. The AMRC aims to drive technological advancements to reduce the 86% of agricultural methane emissions from enteric fermentation in the cattle sector, particularly in cow-calf operations, feedlots, and dairies. At ArkeaBio, we are solely focused on providing farmers with a vaccine-based solution to reduce methane emissions across all phases of cattle operations, an urgent need where limited viable options currently exist. #CdnAg #MethaneReduction

#EmergingInnovatorsChallenge Spotlight: ArkeaBio™ ArkeaBio is using $2.35 million in ERA funding to develop and test a novel vaccine targeting methane-producing bacteria in cattle to reduce methane generated in feed digestion. "ArkeaBio is pleased to have the support of Emissions Reduction Alberta (ERA) in our quest to develop a novel approach that reduces enteric methane emissions from ruminants. Our solution is ideally suited for use throughout all phases of the cattle life cycle, including extensive grazing systems. We look forward to integrating into Alberta's uniquely capable agricultural ecosystem to accelerate the development and commercialization of our methane reduction technology." - Colin South, CEO, ArkeaBio #ERAFunded #TIERfund

This morning, ERA joined Minister Rebecca Schulz at SixRing Inc. to announce the Government of Alberta’s over $44 million investment in 21 technology projects through ERA’s #EmergingInnovatorsChallenge. The projects, worth a combined $162.7 million in public and private investment, include piloting a method to monitor wildfire impacts and detect methane leaks from space, a treatment method for oil sands process-affected water, a new technology to recycle plastics, a novel facility to remove containments from soil, and more. This impactful funding is sourced from the Government of Alberta’s Technology Innovation and Emissions Reduction (TIER) fund. Learn more: https://lnkd.in/g6dfKwVk #TIERfund #ERAfunded

Kudos to the Government of Alberta for committing to building a diversified, lower carbon economy and investing in innovations that make significant advances in mitigating the expanding climate crisis. At ArkeaBio™ we are committed to reducing enteric methane emissions from cattle and with this substantial grant from Emissions Reduction Alberta (ERA), we move closer to accelerating and commercializing our unique vaccine technology. #Alberta #ABTech #TIERfund
