Renewable Energy Centre

The Energy Centre is located in the Co-operators Center, Arena #3 and is open from 9:00am to 6:00pm daily.

People are seeing “green” in a whole new way. For farmers in particular, the shift from “should” to “must” when it comes to responsible practices has taken a much sharper focus. The question of alternative options for energy is top-of-mind and Saskatchewan, with its tremendous deposits of oil and gas, is poised to play a key role in finding the answers. With nearly half of the nation’s total farmland acreage contained with its borders, Saskatchewan also holds the greatest potential for bio-fuel production. A growing number of consumers are now basing their buying decisions on a product’s potential impact on the planet. Market-savvy producers, manufacturers and retailers are building their long-range business plans with a close eye on this trend.

The Western Canada Farm Progress Show is proud to once again host the Alternative Energy Centre, in recognition of the importance of this issue to all aspects of the agriculture industry. With more than 20 exhibitors, the Centre will showcase a wide range of innovative energy options, from bio-fuels to energy-saving products that use the latest in solar, wind and geothermal technology. See new and creative farming and conservation practices that will expand your farm’s “green” footprint and the leading-edge technology and innovative products to get you there. It’s all on display at the Renewable Energy Centre.
