Biomass Fuel Supply Assessment - BC, Canada

ANTARES was selected by Fengate Capital, an investment management firm based in Ontario, Canada, to be the independent fuels consultant in support of financing for two 36 MW greenfield biomass power projects located in British Columbia (BC), one in Merritt (located in southern BC) and one in Fort St. James (located in northern BC). The analysis consisted of assessing current and projected future availability and pricing of wood fuel from manufacturing residues and forest biomass. This project was complicated by the need to forecast long-term availability of timber available over the lifetime of the project due to some local supply constraints.
