Minnesota, Power Utility Districts (PUDs) offer cash incentives for high-efficiency equipment. The bottom line is resource consumption isn’t just bad for the planet – it’s a profit killer. The answer to this dilemma for Minnesota extractors is going green.
Creating an efficient extraction lab in Minnesota begins with understanding which finite resources are used and can be conserved or avoided. This process starts with facility planning to minimize space usage, followed by process planning to optimize functions. By integrating new technologies, labs can reduce consumables like power and reduce their carbon footprint while saving money.
This workshop is your roadmap to creating Sustainable, Cost-Efficient Labs in Minnesota. We’ll show new and existing extraction facility managers how to cut costs and supercharge productivity.
Don’t miss the final step where we reveal how to get PUDs to fund your efficiency upgrades, as outlined in Steve Fuhr’s Marijuana Venture article: “Extraction Efficiency Grants – Power-Up Your Profits”
