MASC supports rural Manitobans in seizing new market opportunities by offering the Alternate Energy Loan program, which assists in the creation of projects such as smaller ethanol, biodiesel, biomass and wind operations. These loans will increase the amount of processing of agricultural products in Manitoba (grains for ethanol and oilseeds for biodiesel) and encourage environmental sustainable alternate energy sources.
What can an Alternate Energy Loan be used for?
- Loans can be used for construction, equipment purchases, and other approved capital costs associated with alternate energy projects such as ethanol, biomass, biodiesel, or wind energy.
