EverGen's Fraser Valley Biogas facility sets production record

Vancouver-based EverGen Infrastructure Corp. has achieved new record single-day and monthly production of renewable natural gas (RNG) at the Fraser Valley Biogas (FVB) facility for June 2024, the company announced on July 3.

The facility’s daily production record stood at 530 GJ, while the monthly record was 10,758 GJ. In addition to the record production, the facility has successfully commissioned additional feedstock processing equipment, allowing it to accept an increased range of feedstock.

“With the previously announced 20-year offtake and feedstock agreements now in place, we look forward to continuing to deliver increased volumes to FortisBC,” said Mischa Zajtmann, CEO of EverGen.

Under the terms of the agreement, FortisBC will purchase up to 160,000 GJ/year of RNG from FVB for injection into its natural gas system.

FVB is the original RNG project in Western Canada and the first project to inject RNG into FortisBC’s network, which is part of the North American natural gas infrastructure network. The facility combines anaerobic digestion and biogas upgrading to produce RNG, including converting agricultural waste from local dairy farms. FVB also produces an organic liquid fertiliser that is used by surrounding farms to displace synthetic fertilisers.

EverGen is an independent renewable energy producer that acquires, develops, builds, owns, and operates a portfolio of RNG, waste-to-energy, and related infrastructure projects.
