In an effort to reduce carbon emissions and further renewable energy solutions, the Canadian government is to invest up to CA$18.79 million (€14 million) in Biocardel Quebec, a biofuels plant producing biodiesel and glycerol located in Richmond, Quebec, through its ecoENERGY for biofuels programme. The investment will span over a seven-year period.
Speaking about the investment, the minister of natural resources Christian Paradis said: ‘By investing in this project we are helping to create and sustain local jobs and economic opportunities while creating a healthier environment for all Canadians.’
The Biocardel Quebec plant will use animal fat and waste cooking oil to manufacture around 40 million litres a year of biodiesel, which will then be sold to Quebec-based diesel producers, in addition to producers located in the US.
