MONTRÉAL, Dec. 16, 2019 /CNW Telbec/ - With its participation in Quebec's first agricultural cooperative entirely dedicated to the production of renewable natural gas, La Coop fédérée is committed to one of the most innovative projects in terms of sustainable development while also supporting the prosperity of agricultural entrepreneurs.

"La Coop fédérée is proud to be associated with the Coop Agri-Énergie Warwick and Coop Carbone project, which was created thanks to the participation of many partners. This project highlights La Coop fédérée's desire to develop a healthy and sustainable environment for future generations," said La Coop fédérée president, Ghislain Gervais.

The creation of an agricultural biomethanization complex in Warwick will reduce greenhouse gases while diversifying the incomes of a dozen farmers in the region.

Already involved in numerous initiatives in the area of sustainable development, La Coop fédérée plans to go one step further and increase its presence in this sector in the coming years by continuing to support promising projects such as Coop Agri-Énergie Warwick.
