Nature’s Way Canada® expands its green energy commitment with Bullfrog Power

Wednesday November 2, 2016

Dartmouth, NSBullfrog Power, Canada’s leading green energy provider, and Nature’s Way Canada® are announcing an expanded environmental partnership. Nature’s Way Canada is now choosing Bullfrog Power’s green electricity and green natural gas for all of their manufacturing facilities and offices across Canada.

“Our East-coast facilities have been bullfrogpowered since 2010 as Ascenta Health and as Nature’s Way Canada we are expanding that environmental commitment across the country to all our offices,” said Steve Chiasson, VP and General Manager, Nature’s Way Canada. “Through our renewed partnership with Bullfrog Power, we’re taking into account more of our emissions footprint with green natural gas and are now bullfrogpowering our Richmond Hill and Vancouver locations.”

Through the agreement, Bullfrog Power’s generators put 100 per cent clean, pollution-free electricity onto the grid to match the amount of conventional power that Nature’s Way Canada’s manufacturing facilities and offices use. Across Canada, Bullfrog Power’s green electricity comes from a blend of wind and low-impact hydro power sourced from new Canadian renewable energy facilities.

Bullfrog Power’s producers will also inject green natural gas into the national pipeline to match the amount of conventional natural gas used by Nature’s Way Canada’s manufacturing facilities and offices. Sourced from a unique, ground-breaking methane-capture project situated on one of Canada’s landfills, Bullfrog’s green natural gas is a climate-friendly alternative to conventional, polluting natural gas. Through this innovative technology, biogas is captured, cleaned up, and injected into the national natural gas pipeline, displacing fossil fuel-based gas and reducing CO2 emissions into the atmosphere.

“By choosing green energy with Bullfrog Power, Nature’s Way Canada is reducing its environmental impact and supporting the development of community-based renewable energy projects across the country,” said Anthony Santilli, VP Sales and Marketing, Bullfrog Power.

Bullfrog Power, through its community renewable projects program, has supported more than 70 green energy projects across Canada. Recently launched Bullfrog Power community projects include solar on Kew Beach Junior Public School in Toronto and the launch of Canada’s first solar park in Vulcan, Alberta.
