Official description
Description
The Surrey Biofuel Facility is the first and largest closed-loop organic waste facility in North America. It processes up to 115,000 tonnes of organic waste annually, converting it into renewable natural gas (RNG) and high-quality compost. The RNG powers the City’s waste collection trucks, operations fleet, and District Energy System, exemplifying a circular economy approach. Each year, the facility can produce up to 120,000 gigajoules of RNG and 45,000 tonnes of compost.
This action will explore opportunities to expand RNG production from organic waste generated in Surrey.
