Technology Brief |
This renewable fuel processing plant planned to be constructed in the southeast corner of Saskatchewan is proposed to have a production capacity of 6,500 barrels a day or 300-325 million litres per year.
Covenant Energy said its planned facility creates demand for 35 million bushels of canola seed to produce 325-350 thousand tonnes of feedstock annually.
Covenant Energy is looking at the Estevan area — which traditionally produces fossil fuels — to be the home of its $500-million facility but added it’s exploring all options to make the final site selection on a railway.
The company is targeting the end of 2023 for initial production, ramping up to full-scale in 2024.
