Federated Co-op Limited (FCL) is looking gain feedback from residents around Regina regarding the company’s proposed renewable diesel and canola crush plants.
The dual facilities are set to be constructed near the Co-op Refinery Complex and will be known as the “Integrated Agriculture Complex.”
While the renewable diesel project will be fully owned by FCL, the canola crush facility will be a partnership with AGT Foods.
The renewable diesel plant is set to have a production capacity of approximately 15,000 barrels of fuel a day – totaling nearly a billion litres annually.
The fuel created at the plant will comply with Canada’s Clean Fuel Regulations.
“[The] facility will offer opportunities to capture CO2 emissions from hydrogen production and process heater vent stacks,” FCL also outlined on its website.
The canola crush facility is expected to produce the same number of barrels daily – processing 1.1 million tonnes of canola a year. Half the feedstock will be provided by AGT.
