First of Kind Commercial Deployment and Demonstration of 100 Class 7 or 8 OEM Commercial CNG/RNG Powered Vehicles
ATCO, in conjunction with Clean Energy and Cummins Westport will deploy a first-in-Alberta commercial demonstration of 100 OEM Class 7 and/or 8 commercial tractors, powered by the 2018 Cummins Westport ISX12N Near-Zero engine. These tractors will be supported by two commercial-grade refueling stations in Calgary and run on CNG and/or RNG fuel. This project is…
Alberta Zero Emissions Truck Electrification Collaboration (AZETEC)
This project will feature the development of two long range fuel cell electric trucks (FCET) for operation between Edmonton and Calgary. These fuel cell hybrid trucks will be powered by Ballard Power Systems next generation, proton exchange membrane fuel cell engine, integrated along with a lithium ion battery pack into a hybrid electric drive by…
Demonstration of Battery-Based Bus Charging Routes
eCAMION will demonstrate a set of electric bus charging technologies that will reduce barriers for electric bus adoption. The demonstration will feature two components: Showcase a practical solution for upgrading the capacity of existing electrical infrastructure to enable conventional electric bus charging infrastructure: eCAMION will install and integrate up to 1.5 MW of energy storage…
Clover Bar Landfill Gas to Renewable Natural Gas Project
The project will explore opportunities to upgrade landfill gas (LFG) at Clover Bar Landfill and inject it into Alberta’s natural gas system as renewable natural gas (RNG). Stakeholders in the Clover Bar Landfill, the City of Edmonton and Capital Power, are exploring these possible opportunities.
ATCO and Future Fuel RNG
The project is a first-of-kind commercial demonstration to produce renewable natural gas (RNG) from biogas at an agricultural operation. The RNG will be injected into the Alberta pipeline system where a portion will be used within Alberta in Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) fleet vehicles and commercial applications. This project addresses a gap that bridges feedstock…
Multi Component Downhole Injection System
Challenger Technical Service’s MCDIS project is designed to eliminate fugitive GHG emissions that occur on existing oil and gas wells. The system will offer a dramatic improvement in the success rate and lifetime of a gas migration repair by introducing new intervention equipment and methods. Two materials are injected separately into a leaking wellbore, where…
Targeted PureJet Incinerators for Methane Challenges
PTAC has partnered with Alberta-based Atlantis labs as well as Cenovus Energy and Husky Energy to develop and demonstrate a small-scale, enclosed incinerator at industry sites in the province where flaring is currently unavailable or uneconomic, targeted at eliminating methane that would otherwise be vented. The portability of the patented PureJet Incinerator device, coupled with…
High Temperature Membranes for SAGD PW Treatment
Suncor will partner with Devon Energy and Suez (formerly GE Water) to demonstrate High Temperature Reverse Osmosis (HTRO) membranes for SAGD water treatment. The project will validate the technology for application in high-temperature SAGD conditions. If successful, the membranes could eliminate the need to reduce the temperature and pressure of produced water prior to water…
Enhanced Bitumen Recovery Technology Pilot
Imperial is advancing a field trial of its Enhanced Bitumen Recovery Technology (EBRT) to validate the method and prepare it for commercial use. The process uses a recovery solution to dilute and mobilize bitumen in the reservoir, reducing the amount of steam needed as much as 90% compared to current methods. Alternatives to steam are…
Lower Carbon Fuels Project
This Low Carbon Fuels project involves switching from using natural gas at Lafarge’s Exshawplant to using waste-derived fuels that would otherwise end up in landfills. Technologies for fuel handling, processing, and injection will be installed at the site to replace 50 per cent of its natural gas use. The implementation at Exshaw will be supported…
