Core Focus
Distributed Energy & Bioenergy
Distributed Energy
Distributed energy resources ("DER" or embedded generation) are onsite, decentralized systems that utilize modular generation to provide electricity and other by-products, such as heating and cooling, to large industrial and government consumers. Envest's distributed energy projects include microgrids with renewable energy sources and cogeneration solutions.
Bioenergy
Bioenergy is derived from technologies using organic or biofuel resources. Green sustainable energy is produced through the reuse of carbon from biomass and various waste streams into renewable power, bioproducts and reduced-emissions fuels. Envest has legacy expertise in developing, owning and operating bioenergy facilities.
CASE STUDIES
Balfour Energy
DISTRIBUTED ENERGY PROJECT
Balfour Energy was developed as a means to provide the offtaker with cost-effective electricity relative to the Ontario electricity grid as well as reliable power quality, which was unavailable from the local distribution company.
Seacliff Energy was one of the first facilities of its kind in North America when it was initially commissioned in 2011. The facility recycles 110,000 tonnes/year of organic residuals from agricultural, commercial, and municipal sources.
Doral Energy is a biodiesel and glycerin producer that is strategically located in Doral, Florida, with a production capacity of up to 10 million gallons per year (MMGY) of biodiesel. It is a zero-waste facility that can process a wide range of feedstocks to produce biodiesel and high purity glycerin as a by-product.
Leamington RNG is a facility currently under development in Leamington, Ontario for the conversion of biogas produced from the anaerobic digestion of organic residuals into pipeline quality renewable natural gas (RNG) for injection into the Enbridge Inc. natural gas distribution network.
Southgate Renewables is a facility currently under development in Dundalk, Ontario for the processing and conversion of source separated organics (SSO) into biogas which is then upgraded to renewable natural gas (RNG). The facility will recycle 73,000 tonnes/year of SSO from "green bin" programs from municipalities throughout Ontario.
The Voisey's Bay Wind project is being developed in partnership with Vale S.A., the world's largest producer of nickel, at their Voisey's Bay Mine located in Northern Labrador. The goal of the project is to provide Vale with cost-effective renewable electricity and also reduce the carbon footprint of the mining operation by displacing diesel fuel use.
