Canada: $50M Ontario Project to Convert Decomposing Trash into Green Energy
A waste management company is partnering with the region’s natural gas supplier on a $50 million project to mine landfill gas from decomposing trash that will generate green energy and help the environment.
Waste Connections of Canada announced plans to construct a new renewable natural gas (RNG) facility on the Ridge Landfill site, near Blenheim, that will include an upgrading and compression system to convert landfill gas into a high-quality renewable natural gas. Enbridge Gas is partnering on the project to run a new four-inch pipeline nearly six kilometres from its Chatham East Line at its Blenheim North Station to a new injection station at the landfill that will require at least a $12 million investment.
