Bright Green Operational Update
10 Agosto 2023 - 3:05PM
Bright Green Corporation (Nasdaq: BGXX)
(“Bright Green” or “the Company”), one of the few companies
selected by the U.S. government to grow, manufacture, and sell,
legally under both federal and state laws, cannabis and
cannabis-related products for research, pharmaceutical applications
and affiliated export, today announced that specific plants have
now been selected for the test crops at its Grants New Mexico
facility, and the company gives its operational updates.
Revenue generation is planned to start late 2023 in
our phase 1 greenhouse, with planned full production in the phase 1
greenhouse and the new construction of the phase 2 greenhouses
starting in 2nd quarter 2024 and completion of phase 2 in late
2025. This complete build out will be the largest production and
manufacturing facility of pharmaceutical grade cannabis extracts in
the world. The company projects minimum debt and minimum share
dilution to achieve these accomplishments through its previously
disclosed $500 million EB-5 visa fundraising. The company expects
and has these expectations by careful design to be the lowest cost,
and highest quality producer of pharmaceutical cannabis in both
dried flower and extract based applications for sales domestically
and export to the European markets. The company has minimum debt,
access to minimum dilution, no cost capital, and a proven best
climate for cultivation these are facts the company has implemented
in its plans.
A Unique Project
In 2019, the DEA announced steps to increase access
to cannabis for research purposes. Bright Green was instrumental in
shaping this new program and is authorized to utilize the company’s
Grants, New Mexico facility to produce high-quality cannabis
intended for pharmaceutical and other product applications. As a
DEA-approved project, the largest of its kind, Bright Green has
partnered with Controlled Environment Agriculture Design (CEAd),
team of project managers, engineers, designers, and industry
professionals who specialize in technical consulting services for
the controlled environment agriculture industry. Joel Fuzat, SVP of
Innovation at CEAd described the relationship with Bright Green:
“We have been providing direction and support to the Company with
their documentation and technical papers since 2021 and have been
developing a full scope of services with a special emphasis on
facility design, and an integrated technology and automation
platform.” He continued: “The solutions CEAd is directly providing,
or supporting through select partnership, are designed to fulfill
the DEA’s criteria for security and control, while also creating
and implementing a foundation for pharmacovigilance at the
production level which will satisfy FDA cGMP requirements along
with other national and international standards.”
The Facility
Thomas Larssen, President of CEAd, explained the
two phases for the Grants facility: “Phase 1 of the project
consisted of the retrofitting an existing high-tech 1 million sq
ft. Dutch Venlo style glass greenhouse in a location with a
well-suited climate for low-cost, high quality cannabis production.
The interior has been removed and reconstructed from the ground up.
It is important that each cultivar is provided a climate that
fulfills the biological potential of the plant. We then ensure that
the climate is maintained year-round, as batch-to-batch consistency
in the chemotype during cultivation of the botanical raw material
is critical. It is necessary to ensure the consistency of the
chemical fingerprint of both the raw materials and the subsequent
extracts are maintained to ensure consistent batch-to-batch
quality, safety, and efficacy of the botanical drug products. Mr.
Larssen added that “to help achieve the lowest possible cost of
production, crop automation is used to avoid repetitive tasks and
increase throughput.”
Phase 2 includes two additional highly automated
greenhouses, each consisting of 57 acres for a combined 114 acres
of production. “This is where things get high-tech with a fully
automated benching system, the latest high-efficiency LED lighting,
and the best in climate controls. This vision of the project funded
by the EB-5 program: constructing the highest tech, highest density
cannabis production possible all DEA, pharmaceutical grade and FDA
compliant.”
Plant Technology Suppliers
The Company has contracted with two groups capable
of providing the necessary chemovars while maintaining them in
conditions completely free of pests and diseases such as Hop Latent
Viroid. Nordic Supreme, based in Odense, Denmark, is a
forward-thinking multi-disciplinary team consisting of breeders and
researchers who are experts in production of unique cannabis
varietals suitable for commercial greenhouse operations. As the
Bright Green’s market evolves and demand for specific molecules
crystallizes, Nordic Supreme will be providing a breed program that
supports increased production of select cannabinoids along with
disease and pest tolerance or even resistance. Mads Ulrik Pedersen,
Founder of Nordic Supreme commented, “Our specialty is providing
high performing genetics with select characteristics necessary for
today’s medical cannabis market. We currently have cultivars highly
suitable to Bright Green’s pharmaceutical platform and look forward
to developing custom breeds, with a focus on increasing the
availability of minor cannabinoids that BG off-takers will
require.”
