AquaSol provided aquaculture consulting and early-stage project management services for an innovative, large-scale shrimp farming development targeting a net-zero carbon footprint. The project combined intensive shrimp production systems with a co-located renewable energy solution, designed to reduce operational emissions while maintaining commercial viability.

Working with a high-net-worth investor, AquaSol supported the development of a scalable and financially viable concept aligned with emerging sustainability requirements in global aquaculture.

Project Scope

The engagement focused on early-stage development and strategic planning, including:

• Site identification and suitability assessment
• Technical feasibility of intensive shrimp farming systems
• Integration of renewable energy infrastructure
• Preliminary financial modelling and investment analysis
• Development roadmap for project execution

Project Outcome

• Identified and shortlisted viable sites for development
• Defined a technically and commercially credible project concept
• Established preliminary financial feasibility for a multi-million-dollar investment
• Confirmed projected annual production capacity of 3,700 metric tons
• Demonstrated the viability of a net-zero carbon shrimp farming operation

Why This Matters

Sustainable aquaculture is becoming increasingly important as producers face rising energy costs, environmental regulations, and investor scrutiny.

This project demonstrates how:

• Intensive shrimp farming can be aligned with renewable energy solutions
• Carbon reduction strategies can be integrated without compromising production
• Large-scale aquaculture developments can meet both commercial and environmental objectives
