Genesis Fertilizers have shared a significant milestone in their journey to build Canada’s first proposed low-carbon nitrogen fertilizer facility. The company has signed a front-end engineering design (FEED) agreement with DL Engineering and Construction (DL E&C), a South Korean company that specialises in building fertilizer plants. The signing took place at the Canadian Embassy in Korea, highlighting the strong partnership between our two countries.
During FEED, engineers and designers create detailed plans for the facility, including how it will use technology to capture carbon and how materials will move through the plant. This phase ensures that when construction begins, everything is safe, efficient, and cost-effective. Getting this step right is critical – it’s the difference between a barn that fits perfectly into your operation and one that doesn’t meet your needs.
For farmers across Western Canada, this proposed project represents a more secure and affordable fertilizer supply. Many farmers depend on imported fertilizers, which are often subject to price swings and availability issues. With this proposed plant, you could have access to a locally produced, reliable source of nitrogen fertilizer, reducing your reliance on external markets.
Additionally, this proposed facility is designed with sustainability in mind. Advanced carbon capture technology aims to sequester up to 1 million t of CO2 each year, helping farmers like you meet your own environmental goals.
With FEED scheduled to begin this December, Genesis Fertilizers is taking another step toward making this vision a reality. Construction is targeted to begin after this phase is complete, with operations projected to start by 2029.
This facility isn’t just about fertilizer – it’s about supporting the farmers who feed the world. By creating a farmer-owned plant, the company is committed to returning profits directly to farmers while providing a stable, locally sourced supply of nitrogen fertilizer.
