WINNIPEG, Manitoba, July 19, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- FuelPositive Corporation (TSX.V: NHHH) (OTCQB: NHHHF) (the "Company") is thrilled to announce the completion of on-farm commissioning of its first scalable Green Ammonia production system.

Francisco Mora, FuelPositive's Lead Chemical Engineer, commented, "We are excited to unveil our technology to the world and initiate the production of Green Ammonia. We are virtually ready to activate our system and produce ammonia. Our only setback during commissioning has been related to two on-the-ground certifications specific to Manitoba, which are required before turning the system on fully."

Ian Clifford, Co-Founder and CEO, explained further, "We are excited and prepared to activate ammonia production in our first on-farm system and demonstrate our groundbreaking technology to the world. Currently, we are awaiting the final go-ahead from the province before proceeding. Unfortunately, our team was inaccurately informed of the completion and timeline of two necessary Manitoba certifications. We have addressed this issue.

While these approvals are essential to comply with Manitoba's requirements and to complete the final activation of the system, we are confident that we are compliant and that obtaining these certifications is a formality. We will continue to advise on this progress."

Luna Clifford, Co-Founder and CIO, added:

"Fortunately, our team's skill, resourcefulness, and strong connections and advisors in Manitoba have allowed us to address the situation promptly. We have been supported by skilled and reputable Manitoba-based companies that have helped facilitate the company's transition to the province.

Leading mechanical and electrical contractors Wescan and Tri-Star Automation, the engineering firm QPS Evaluation Services Inc., and site safety specialist Quint Services have been pivotal in this process.

These local alliances have facilitated the on-farm commissioning of our first system and have guided us through the final regulatory hurdles, helping minimize delays.

Their invaluable support has helped FuelPositive navigate and adapt to Manitoba's specific on-the-ground requirements, ensuring a smooth and efficient integration."

Jon Treloar, Mechanical Division Manager of Wescan Construction Services , commented,

"We're excited about the transformative impact FuelPositive can have on agriculture in Manitoba and beyond. FuelPositive has contracted us to help navigate the specific regulatory landscape of Manitoba.

Our extensive experience in dealing with the Ministry of Labour requirements ensures that FuelPositive has the necessary guidance and that their final "on the ground" approvals are underway.

Additionally, Wescan has provided FuelPositive with highly skilled Manitoba-certified contractors to expedite the approval process and support commissioning the first FP300 unit. These contractors offer critical electrical and mechanical support, helping to accelerate the project timeline.

Manitoba is known for its stringent regulations. However, the good news is that once FuelPositive's first system is certified as "ready" for Manitoba, the certification process for subsequent systems will be much quicker and largely routine."

David Thorarinson, Owner and CEO of Tri-Star Automation commented,

"Our team at Tri-Star Automation is leveraging its extensive expertise to empower FuelPositive by providing essential electrical contracting, optimizing collaboration with Manitoba Hydro, and consulting on developing cutting-edge mass production capabilities in the province."

Reagan Coppicus, Owner of Quint Services Ltd. , added,

"At Quint Services, we recognize the critical importance of safety planning for FuelPositive's first-of-its-kind on-farm Green Ammonia manufacturing system and related storage. Our thorough safety and emergency response services ensure that FuelPositive can produce and store Green Ammonia with complete assurance, safeguarding farmers in emergencies. With our expert consulting and dedicated emergency response team, we are committed to helping FuelPositive create a safer and more sustainable future in agriculture."

FuelPositive is also pleased to share that the Company has received numerous visits from interested farmers, stakeholders, and new association members eager to see the Company's system in person at the Hiebert's farm in Sperling.

This interest highlights the excitement and potential FuelPositive's technology and business model holds for the agricultural sector, particularly for farmers.

Rick Rutherford, a third-generation owner and farmer at Rutherford Farms in Grosse Isle, Manitoba, , commented,

"We have closely followed FuelPositive's groundbreaking projects in Waterloo, Ontario and Sperling, Manitoba.

Excited by their innovative approach, we've eagerly participated in the initial tranche of their current financing round and are now closely monitoring the progress of our investment.

As a near-net-zero-carbon farming operation, one of our most significant challenges has been reducing the carbon footprint of our nitrogen fertilizers.

Integrating FuelPositive's technologies on our 12,000-acre farm has the potential to propel us into a carbon net-zero reality.

This milestone would be an incredible achievement for us, and it would set a transformative precedent for sustainable agriculture in Canada and worldwide!"

Ian Clifford added, "We're thrilled by the overwhelmingly positive response and support we've received from farmers, government agencies, and stakeholders across Manitoba since our arrival, resulting in many different site visits throughout July.

It's incredibly humbling to witness the enthusiasm, interest and demand for innovative solutions like ours in the agricultural sector."

Luna Clifford concludes, "We're eager to produce ammonia on-site. While we have encountered some regulatory delays and are waiting to proceed, we continue to grow our network and promote FuelPositive interests and growth in Manitoba. Our commitment to delivering impactful solutions to farmers remains unwavering."
