Growing Cannabis and HEMP in doors taxes our already diminished energy foot print.

Local municipalities/Government will require the Cannabis industry to meet Green energy requirements.


Why renewable energy to Grow Cannabis and Hemp?

Here's why!!!


Would you guess that growing marijuana indoors consumes 1% of US electricity? Yikes!

America's fledgling marijuana industry uses $6 billion worth of energy per year, creating greenhouse gas pollution equivalent to 3 million cars.

Why? Because it still has to be grown covertly - and that means using lots of energy-intensive grow lights indoors.
Although the sale of medical marijuana has been approved by voters in 20 states and the District of Columbia - and Colorado and Washington State will begin selling pot legally to recreational users next year - cannabis is still subject to federal seizure and penalties under America's archaic drug enforcement policies.

In fact, indoor marijuana production facilities use lighting as intense as surgery operating rooms; warehouse-style farms require six-times the air-exchange rate of a biotech lab and 60 times that of a home, according to an independent study conducted in 2011 at Lawrence Berkeley National Lab.

Dozens of these warehouses are in the Denver area.



Think of it this way: smoking one joint represents two pounds of CO2 emissions, the same as a 100-watt light bulb produces in 24 hours.

In real numbers, the monthly energy bill for the Denver-based River Rock dispensary - a medical marijuana retailer with a local warehouse - exceeds $21,000. And that's low compared to other retailers, who have electric bills of $100,000, reports CBS Denver.


What to Do?

Colorado's medical retailers project the marijuana market will grow by at least 400% percent when recreational users start buying in January.

In preparation for capacity crowds at dispensaries, the City of Boulder is ready with the same environmental regulations as any polluter. [b[color=red]]The city mandates marijuana growers either install or buy wind or solar energy, or purchase carbon offsets. [/color]


We can't have a burgeoning industry that is driving our carbon emissions up," Boulder City Councilman Macon Cowles, told CBS Denver. "Marijuana is going to be greener in Boulder and we are very proud of that."

As for River Rock in Denver, its new 18,000-square-foot greenhouse will primarily run on solar, using 6% of the energy needed to grow indoors. "Our primary goal is to lower our costs as much as possible and pass it on to our patients," owner John Kocer told CBS Denver.

WHY GRPS is POSITION TO GROW ITS PATENT PENDING SOLAR ROOF SOLUTION USING THE CANNABIS/HEMP MARKET:

Cannabis/Hemp Projected Growth:

How would the legalization of marijuana benefit the American people and the economy? Industry analysts believe there will be a creation of a new and highly profitable agricultural industry, increased trade opportunities, an increase in the gross national product (GNP), improved environmental conditions, new tax resources, and reduced costs with respect to enforcement of current laws. With all eyes on the industrial hemp and medical marijuana industry, coupled with the benefits of legalization, savvy investors are beginning to invest heavily

While some are courageous enough to open dispensaries and grow, most tend to play it safe and invest in marijuana stocks. Simply put, it is a mature and aged industry reality in the American marketplace. The massive publicity will not only attract the average American investor, it will also attract newbie investors (from your auto mechanic workers to your stay-at-home moms) and foreign interests. "Everybody wants in on 'the next big thing'. Think of it as another dot.com explosion without the crash for at least another decade or two, if ever," says


Even though his favorite is his own (Hemp, Inc. (OTC: HEMP)) he has started strategically investing in other marijuana industry stocks. “I know these stocks are going to go through the roof,” says Perlowin. “The smart investor will start accumulating now before that explosion begins.”

Industry revenue since 2001 has grown at a rate over 12.5%, and it is expected to skyrocket at an annual rate of 24.3% a year until 2018 where the revenue will total over $5 billion. There are numerous reasons cited for this rapid growth including an increase in demand due to a steadily aging population, and an increase in per capita disposable income. However, the main reason for the explosion is the gradual acceptance from the public and consequently, government bodies. We consistently hear more and more lawmakers endorsing medical marijuana bills in their states and using it more and more to support their platforms to gain public favor. Additionally, the marijuana success stories are becoming abundant, including the most recent story regarding Melvin McDonald who made a 180 degree turn, and is now a medical marijuana advocate, as we discussed in a previous article.


Over the next five years it is estimated that the number of citizens aged 50 and older will increase by 1.8% a year. Naturally, this matters because it unfortunately means more medical conditions are destined to happen that medical marijuana can significantly help in treating, such as cancer, glaucoma, Alzheimer’s etc. Per capita disposable income is expected to rise 2.1% annually for the next five years. These are just a examples on the ever-growing list of reasons about the bright future for the medical marijuana growing industry.


Boyens figures at least 20 percent of Denver's 13 million annual out-of-state tourists are pot smokers. He estimates at least 2 percent of those smokers — about 52,000 — will head to his shop for retail marijuana each year.

"If they all bought 7 grams, that would be 2 to 3 pounds a day," he said. "That isn't including Colorado residents. We think the demand is going to be through the roof. But we can't be sure."



Boyens said his shop must increase its volume sixfold to meet the demand.

"From what I have heard, everyone is trying to expand to be ready for this new market," he said. "You want to have as many plants in the ground by December as you can. That is what everyone is saying."



Tom Downey, director of Denver's excise and licensing department, said a survey a few months ago found that the city's dispensaries could triple their output based on their available warehouse space.


Green House Advantages for Growing High quality Cannabis and Hemp:


What are the Advantages of Growing in a Greenhouse?


A greenhouse is any structure with a covering (usually glass) which is used to control temperature and humidity in the cultivation and protection of plants.

When you have a greenhouse, you effectively have your own little micro-environment that you can control. You become the God of your own little patch of land! Greenhouses don’t always have to be made out of glass. Many modern greenhouses are made of plastic, or specialized materials. These materials come in a variety of color, size and thickness. Choosing materials carefully will ensure you have the best greenhouse for your situation.

Greenhouses can be simply DIY jobs using some timber and a drill, or poly tunnels using poly tubing and some polythene sheets. They can also be large custom built structures, using metal and concrete. For most people, a small DIY greenhouse (about 10-20 square meters) will do just fine.in a variety of color, size and thickness. Choosing materials carefully will ensure you have the best greenhouse for your situation.

What are some advantages?


1 - Ability to control temperature
The greenhouse design lets light in, and when this light is absorbed by objects inside the greenhouse and turns to heat energy, it is not permitted to escape. The air temperature in the greenhouse will exceed the outside temperature. If it gets too hot, all you have to do is open up some of the ventilation panels (or just open the door, depending on the design) and the temperature will drop. Greenhouses are able to regulate temperatures; temperature fluctuations can stress plants and slow growth.


2 - Ability to control pests
As most greenhouses have a pretty good covering over all the structure, pests can't get in as easily as they could if your plants were just out in the open. This also applies to seeds and even pollen from unwanted plants (such as weeds).



3 - Ability to control humidity
The air-tight covering on a greenhouse causes it to become quite hot and humid inside during the day time. The moisture evaporating from the soil, and the moisture given off by photosynthesizing plants (transpiration) fills the air. Once the air is very humid, it becomes harder for plants to lose water through evaporation, and likewise with the soil. This helps to keep everything from drying out on a hot sunny day. Therefore, it is essential to have air circulation to exhaust excessive humidity and regulate air exchange.


4 - Stealth
Nosey neighbors will have their view obstructed by your greenhouse if you choose to use slightly shaded glass/plastic, which still lets enough light through for strong plant growth, but is opaque enough as to obscure vision from the outside.



5 - Protects your plants from adverse weather condition
Storms can't blow your plants over and tear them to shreds when they're safely inside your greenhouse! Also helps protect plants in areas where frosts are common.



6 - Excessive fall rain can cause powdery mildew and mold that can effect the final crop.



How does all this environmental control help?

1 - How do higher temps help my plants?
Every plant is made up of cells. Every cell has hundreds of chemical reactions taking place inside it at every moment of the day. These reactions would be very slow, if it wasn't for enzymes. Enzymes act as catalysts for all the chemical reactions taking place in cells (including photosynthesis).

2 - Enzymes work best in certain pH's and temperature ranges, depending on the type of enzyme. Too high or low pH, and the enzymes will work slower than normal, or might even denature (die). Too low a temp, and the enzymes will also not function to capacity, and too high results in them being denatured. Warm -but not hot- temperatures usually result in maximum enzyme efficiency, which means faster plant growth. Having perfect temperatures is like super-charging your plants!


3 - It helps slow the rate of evaporation from soil and plants, as the air already has a large amount of water suspended in it. Plants use water during photosynthesis (6H20 + 6CO2 (plus sunlight)= C6H12O6) so they need a constant water supply during sunlight hours. Having to battle with high evaporation rates is something they don't want! By lowering this, it enables them to photosynthesis more without losing water to the point of their leaves wilting.


Other advantages
A greenhouse is a great idea for outdoor growers who live in cold climates, or areas where pests and horrible acts of god are a common problem. It also helps hide your crops from anyone who may be having a quick look over their fence. If you want maximum control of your outdoor grow, a greenhouse is an absolute essential part of your garden!



VANCOUVER — Brendan Kennedy doesn’t fit the stereotypical image of a marijuana grower:


Six weeks from now, the three Seattle sharpshooters expect they’ll have hired 40 full-time workers from around the province. They’ll be growing, processing and packaging for sale medical-grade marijuana inside a $3-million, 35,000-square-foot green warehouse on the Nanaimo waterfront, next to a pulp and paper mill and just down the road from a BC Ferries terminal.


Privateer’s new Canadian subsidiary purchased the building this month. Mr. Kennedy expects to spend another $6.5-million to $7-million on capital improvements, including equipment required to raise potent marijuana plants



WHY USE GRPS RENEWAL ENERGY PHOTOVOLTAIC SOLAR ROOF SYSTEM:



1 - GRPS offers a USDA approved! patent pending product that is 100% ideal for federal grants and projects from the private sector.

2 - A recent break-through in a high-speed manufacturing process for the production of photovoltaic solar cells has led to a substantial reduction in the cost of P V cells. As a result of this new break-through technology, AeroQuest will now be able incorporate the very light-weight and flexible P V solar "film" into roof panels as they are produced on high speed panel laminators.

3 - AeroQuest engineers are currently working with exciting technologies that will allow the World Home and other structures designed by AeroQuest to be self-sufficient using "renewable energy".

4 - A portion of electricity produced by the solar roof will be used to power the home or other structure during the day. The excess electricity may be stored in lithium-ion batteries or used to separate water into hydrogen and oxygen gas that can be stored and then used as fuel for hydrogen fuel cells. The electricity produced by the fuel cells or stored in battery packs could then power an electric generator for night time use or be used to power an electric vehicle.

5 - High effeciency photovoltaic solar cell modules are integrated into the roof panels thereby generating a considerable amount of electricity; generaly, more power than the structure itself will use. The power “overage” generated by AeroQuest’s Solar Roof System may be stored for later use or sold to “grid-tied” power companies. The AeroQuest Solar Roof System is transported to the jobsite and, when the interlocking panels are installed, the roof will require no additional fabrication like sealants, barrior coats or shingles.

6 - AeroQuest’s Solar Roof System will vastly improve a roof’s overall strength when considering the effects of earthquakes, high winds, or heavy snow loads. Additionally, the AeroQuest Solar Roof System will have a much higher insulation value(R-42 rated); nearly double that of conventional roofs. As a result of the monolithic sandwich panel design, conventional roof trusses and joists are not required. Both the exterior and interior sides of AeroQuest’s solar roof panels are manufactured with a Class I fire and smoke rating (ASTM E-84 and E-119) and as a result, dry wall is not required.


Benefits of Technology:

1 -Extremely lightweight from 1 Lbs/per sq ft.
2 -Excellent stiffness and tensil strength.
3 -Resistant to water and most chemicals
4 -Exceptional impact resistance and durability
