Loch Long Salmon

Loch Long Salmon is a Scottish-English-Irish partnership of three climate conscious companies that have collective experience in marine development, salmon farming and food distribution. All three have a focus on sustainability and community issues.

Loch Long Salmon is a low-impact salmon farming project dedicated to environmental stewardship and animal welfare. The project proposes to use closed-pen systems which eliminate sea lice and capture, remove, and reuse almost all the solid waste. This can then then be used in anaerobic digesters for green energy production – allowing the fish farming system to contribute to Scotland’s Circular Economy.

Semi-closed containment farming is already widely used in countries including Canada, Norway and the Faroe Islands, where it is transforming industries by improving the welfare of salmon whilst creating economic benefit and greener outputs.
