The federal government is investing $4.5 million in Sherbrooke, Que.-based CRB Innovations, which is developing a commercial pilot project to convert forestry residuals and other biomass sources into products that will be converted into biofuels and co-bioproducts.
The funding comes from Natural Resources Canada’s Clean Growth Program. This project is the first of its kind for a Canadian biorefinery.
The Quebec government is investing $2.5 million in the project from the Wood Innovation Program. The project will result in the development of new products in the bioenergy sector and bioproducts with a reduced carbon footprint. As a result, the Quebec government is also granting $1.575 million from the Technoclimat Program.
