I am seeking to engage with City of Ottawa officials to explore the potential for establishing a private-sector processing facility that converts municipal solid waste into diesel fuel, pyrolysis oil, and electricity. This initiative would support the City's waste diversion goals and sustainable energy production.
To advance preliminary feasibility assessments, I am requesting access to key information from the City, including:
The daily volume and composition of municipal solid waste collected,
The calorific value of waste delivered to the landfill,
The calorific value of existing landfill materials,
The availability and zoning status of land near or adjacent to the landfill that could accommodate a waste-to-energy facility.
This information will support the design, technical modeling, and investment planning for a clean technology project that could reduce landfill use, cut emissions, generate local energy, and contribute to the City of Ottawa’s climate and waste reduction objectives.
