Opportunity for on-farm renewable natural gas production

From the office of MPP Toby Barrett

To The Haldimand Press

The Ontario government is changing biogas rules to create new ways for farmers to expand the emerging biogas and renewable natural gas market in the province, creating economic opportunities while maintaining the province’s strict environmental protections.

The regulation changes will enable new on-farm biogas systems and expansion of existing systems to be approved more easily and at a lower cost to help ensure that Ontario continues to be a biogas sector leader in Canada.
