✧ ABOUT
NTE Discovery Park
Located in Campbell River on the northeast coast of Vancouver Island, BC, Canada, and managed by our Canadian subsidiary New Times Discovery Limited, Discovery Park is a 1,200-acre (4.9 km²) industrial park offering industrial land parcels, buildings, and warehouses for lease.
The site features an electrical substation connected to two 138 kV transmission lines, delivering over 200MW of 100% renewable hydro energy from BC Hydro at rates as low as C$0.05/kWh. Additional facilities include a solid industrial waste landfill, a complementary wastewater treatment facility, a fresh water supply, and two deepwater piers for dock usage and direct ocean access.
✧ BUSINESS
Establishing a Sustainable Circular Ecosystem
NTE Discovery Park has the potential to accommodate tenants in industries such as green data centres, modular construction, marine services, and steel fabrication. We are transforming Discovery Park into a green-tech hub to attract tenants aligned with our ESG mandate. The site is ideal for aquaculture, data centres, and renewable natural gas projects due to its low-cost electricity and abundant ocean and freshwater supply. We are actively exploring these opportunities with support from local and federal governments.
NTE Discovery Park seeks partnerships with leading ag-tech companies in Canada and globally to provide efficient, localized food supply solutions using indoor farming technologies. The site aims to redefine agriculture by overcoming seasonal and climate constraints, reducing long supply chains, and benefiting Western Canada’s people, resources, and economy.
In addition to sustainable development, NTE Discovery Park will feature a digital transformation technology hub to support ongoing green projects and innovations. We exemplify what is possible when we include the planet in our plans.
ECO-RESPONSIBLE FOOD
Sustainable On-land Aquaculture
Salmon is an excellent high-protein food source, but wild stocks are under stress. One solution is on-land salmon farms. Our aquaculture facility will produce 40,000 tonnes of salmon per year, making it one of the largest on-land aquaculture facilities in the world. By leveraging an existing water supply and utilizing heat and oxygen produced by our ammonia plant, this facility significantly reduces its environmental footprint.
Bio-fuel Plant
We will convert regional wood waste and fish sludge into renewable natural gas. Although the process is not emission-neutral, we will utilize the CO₂ produced to grow food in our vertical gardens.
Vertical Farming
We plan to utilize CO₂ from our bio-fuel plant to grow vegetables, significantly reducing our carbon footprint. Vertical farming, compared to traditional agriculture, uses up to 98% less land and water.
ECO-INNOVATIVE HUB
Data Hub & Generative AI Center
Digital transformation involves integrating technology into business operations, streamlining processes, enhancing delivery, and ensuring future readiness. While this requires significant infrastructure investment, NTE Discovery Park is already well-prepared. With digital partners onboard and a high-speed fiber optics infrastructure in place, we are leading the way in this evolution.
