Green natural gas source

Seacliff Energy recycles 110,000 tonnes/year of organic residuals from agricultural, commercial, and municipal sources, including source separated organics (SSO or "green bin" waste) from municipalities throughout Southern Ontario. The organics are anaerobically digested in three 3,650 m³ tanks over 30 days. Digestion creates two key products; biogas and digestate. The biogas, a mixture rich in methane and carbon dioxide, is polished and consumed in a combined heat-and-power (CHP) unit to produce 1.6 MW of electrical energy and 1.6 MW of by-product thermal energy.

The electrical energy is supplied to the Ontario electricity grid as a source of renewable power and the thermal energy is used to heat the digesters and the adjacent 7-acre organic greenhouse. The digestate is further processed to produce an organic fertilizer that is used by local farmers to offset chemical fertilizer consumption. SEC, through the diversion of organic residuals from landfills, offsetting of natural gas consumption for heating, and production of fertilizer from waste, is a leader in the realization of the circular economy.

About our sources

We source our green electricity, green natural gas, and green fuel from generators and producers that meet or exceed the strictest environmental standards. By supporting these renewable sources, our community is advancing the green energy transition and building a cleaner, greener world for us all.

Palm Beach SWA Processing Facility

Through this project, landfill gas is captured, cleaned, and repurposed to dry the biosolids, and the resulting fertilizer is used by agricultural, commercial, and residential applications across the Sunshine State.
