Peak Renewables Announces SYP Pellet Mill in Alabama
Vancouver, Canada-based Peak Renewables plans to build a 180,000 metric tons per year wood pellet mill in Dothan, Ala. The $30 million project will utilize residuals from Rex Lumber sawmills in the area.
Construction on the facility is expected to be completed by mid-2023. Peak is building the plant adjacent the SmartLam cross-laminated timber plant and upcoming glulam facility in Dothan.
Peak and SmartLam have some common ownership, including longtime sawmill construction and equipment supplier Brian Fehr.
