The government of Alberta has implemented a new “agriculture-first” approach to approving projects, on land in the Canadian province.

Canadian renewables firm Westbridge Renewable Energy will complete the first transaction of one of its five definitive agreements with Greek developer Mytilineos’ subsidiary, Metka.

The Alberta Utilities Commission (AUC) has announced a 6-month moratorium on renewable energy project developments above 1MW in size, primarily to review concerns around land use.
