Co Generation Facility

posted on Oct 26, 2008 06:02PM

In Connacher's current Presentation it is stated that a co generation facility will be constructed along with the Algar project ostensibly to produce electricity for Algar, Great Divide and future projects. What would be the feedstock for the co generation plant? Would it burn natural gas or a by-product of the bitumen itself? Would the bitumen that Connacher produces be too dirty to burn in terms of pollutants or could a co generation plant use scrubbers to remove the pollutants produced by burning bitumen. What else could be burned cheaply to produce the electricity cheaply?

Cheers; Scott
