New Energy Farms

New Energy Farms is a market leader, supplying the renewable energy industry with biomass from a range of energy crops. We have over 20 years experience and our recently introduced technical innovations, CEEDSTM and Biomass DirectTM are poised to have significant impacts upon the multiplication and establishment of new energy crops and on the ability to monitor the feedstock supply chains in the biomass sector. NEF has primarily addressed the problems posed by almost all of the high biomass energy crops - how to reduce the cost and increase the efficiency of planting vegetatively propagated crops. Currently the main areas of expertise are in the high biomass perennial crops such as Sugar cane, Energy cane, Napier grass, Miscanthus and Arundo donax.

NEF provides solutions for the energy crop market, for growers, aggregators, processors and end users.

Energy crops provide high quality, low carbon feedstocks for energy and industrial markets, and provide profitable options for farmers. NEF provides services that allow growers and end users to establish energy crops cost effectively. Over the last three years NEF has supplied the majority of the Miscanthus planted in the US and Canadian marketplace but attention is inceasingly being focussed on other energy crops as energy crop plantings move into different climatic and geographic areas.

The market for energy crops in the EU and North America is expected to be up to 80 million acres. Demand for biomass is rising, as a source of feedstock for both energy uses, and also for industrial markets such as new fibre production. To scale to this level requires new solutions. NEF has developed new technology that is unique, and makes this possible. This provides a complete solution to establish, manage and trade large-scale plantations of energy crops cost effectively. 

NEF operate from a headquarters in Ontario Canada, and have operations in the US (Georgia) and the EU (UK). NEF have the largest dedicated propagation facilities for these energy crops in North America. We have completely vertically integrated operations, producing all our own high quality plant propagation material for our customers. We fully believe in biomass and grow energy crops for our own use at the offices in Canada, where they are used to heat biomass boilers and a series of greenhouses. 

NEF is completely dedicated to energy crops and can provide solutions for growers and operators of existing and planned.projects. 

New Energy Farms (NEF) provides a complete solution to sourcing biomass feedstock for your project. We have extensive experience in commercial production of high yielding energy grasses. NEF operates in the US, Canada and the EU with vertically integrated operations from plant breeding through to commercial supply of feedstock. Our crops are suitable for thermal, liquid, Anaerobic Digestion (AD) and animal feed applications. If your project needs a secure source of high quality feedstock then NEF can assist you. 

NEF have developed key technologyies for the economic scaling up of planting energy crops, CEEDSTM, and also for the management of energy crop plantations, Biomass DirectTM.

Crops

NEF are experts in the propagation of perennial energy grasses at large commercial scale, for fuel, fibre and feed end markets. 

We have internal production facilities in the US, Canada and EU for field and glasshouse propagation .
These are the largest dedicated facilities in North America for energy crop propagation. 

NEF supply a range of species and cultivars, these include public cultivars purchased with no onward restriction, and other newer cultivars with breeders royalty payments. 
We supply both plug plants and vegetative cuttings (rhizomes) and our new format CEEDS™. 

Our pricing is very competitive from a single box to orders in the millions of units. 
All material is shipped from stock with full internal Quality Control, so you can be sure that you will receive the highest quality plants.
