A new organics biofuel processing facility for the City of Surrey.
City of Surrey Biofuel Processing Facility Project
Project Details
Project Description: The facility is the first fully integrated closed-loop organic waste management system in North America. The facility converts curbside organic waste into renewable biofuel to fuel the Surrey’s fleet of natural gas powered waste collection and service vehicles. Under this closed loop system, waste collection trucks collect their fuel source at curbside. Excess fuel goes to the new district energy system that heats and cools Surrey’s City Centre.
