The focus of this project with NyFound Energy Services Inc., a developer of mid-sized clean heat, power, and energy utilities in western North America, revolves around the use of wood waste produced by the local sawmills in Merritt to produce electricity and the potential to also capture waste heat to supply dryers used at the sawmills, community buildings, greenhouses, and/or a wood pellet manufacturing plant. The use of wood waste would displace some or all of the natural gas currently used for drying purposes in the dry kilns and for provision of space heating.
