Yellowknife Waste-to-Energy
Our flagship project: a waste-to-energy facility developed as a component of the Yellowknife masterplan.
Yellowknife sits at the sharp end of the Canadian waste problem. It is a northern city with a landfill approaching the end of its life, extreme heating demand, and no cheap way to move waste anywhere else. The original disposal cell is projected to reach capacity around 2030 (City of Yellowknife).
Rather than treating waste handling as a service to be pushed to the city limits, the Yellowknife project puts a waste-to-energy facility inside the masterplan — adjacent to the housing and community buildings that will take its heat. Waste becomes a district energy source for the development that produces it.
The project is being advanced with Indigenous partnership at the ownership level, alongside feasibility work covering waste characterisation, energy balance, capital structure, and the territorial regulatory pathway.
Masterplan context
Energy infrastructure designed into the plan.
Siting the facility inside the masterplan rather than at the edge of town is what makes the heat usable. These renderings show the community the plant is being designed to serve.
Pipeline
Exploring additional opportunities across Canada.
We are currently exploring additional waste-to-energy opportunities with Indigenous communities and municipalities across Canada — in the territories, across British Columbia from the Lower Mainland to the Interior, the Island, and the North, and in smaller centres where landfill capacity and energy costs are converging into the same problem.
Early-stage evaluation is deliberately cheap and deliberately honest. We look at waste tonnage and composition, heat and power demand, the regulatory envelope, and whether an ownership structure can realistically be assembled. If the answer is no, we say so.
British Columbia
Province-wide, from Lower Mainland and Island municipalities to Interior and northern communities facing long haul distances and constrained landfill capacity.
Indigenous nations nationally
Open conversations with nations seeking owned, revenue-generating energy and waste infrastructure.
Is your community next?
