Canadian refiners partner to build new Quebec biofuels, renewable chemicals plant

摘要

New York-Canadian refiners Suncor and Shell have partnered with Enerkem to build a biofuel plant in Varennes, Quebec, which will use non- recyclable waste as feedstock to make advanced biofuels and renewable chemicals. The proposed plant will support Quebec’s stated objective to reduce economic dependence on fossil fuels by 40% by 2030 while increasing supply of biofuels in the province ahead of Canada’s federal Clean Fuel Standard (CFS) set to begin in 2022.
