ANAHEIM, CA--(Marketwired - May 21, 2015) - Greengro Technologies (
Many areas of the world already use innovative techniques for food production, however, the severe water shortage in the Western United States, especially California, has an immediate and profound impact on agriculture and legal marijuana producers. Studies show that traditionally farming 1 pound of broccoli takes approximately 11 gallons of water. According to the Press Democrat, a Northern California Newspaper, "Researchers estimate each marijuana plant consumes 6 gallons of water a day, and there are more than 1 million marijuana plants in Mendocino alone. California is expected to produce 2.1 billion pounds of marijuana this year creating an immediate market for water reclamation solutions. In Colorado researchers estimate that legal marijuana production uses 10% of the state's water supply and tasks the state's electrical grid due to its "indoor/greenhouse only" cultivation policy.
According to Greengro CEO James Haas, "With the US Government Marijuana legislative efforts well underway, we see a great need for energy efficient solar, back-up power, and reclaimable water solutions. To capitalize on this demand, we are positioning ourselves to quickly bring products to market that will give clients cost savings options and make a positive difference in Greengro's 2015 revenues."
The company will launch its energy solutions products and services in the coming months as an addition to its www.verticalhydrogarden.com. Greengro is developing and testing these solutions at their existing BP Gardens facilities so the real time feedback can bring real useable solutions to market quickly. The company expects to simplify and productize solar solutions from 5kw to 100 kw commercial scale; backup power solutions for mission critical crops, and various water conservation and reclamation solutions that are affordable and scaleable for producers of any size.
The company will provide additional details on the upcoming product lines and turnkey solutions in the coming months. Meanwhile, the company sales teams have systems in place to help clients who are either designing current systems or urgently need to address water, electrical, or automation issues.
