We have worked with federal, provincial, and municipal governments, industry and non-governmental organizations, financial markets, and producers and marketers of renewable fuels. (www.waterfall.ca) Our experience covers various renewable fuel platforms, including:- Biodiesel and renewable hydrocarbon diesel- Ethanol (including cellulosic and MSW-derived)- Renewable aviation fuels (biojet)- Renewable hydrogen and renewable natural gas- Biomass-based co-processing feedstocks- Emerging novel carbon capture feedstocks and technologiesSince 2005, Waterfall Group has provided the day to day operations and leadership of Advanced Biofuels Canada, the leading biofuels industry association in Canada. Advanced Biofuels Canada is the only industry organization actively engaged with the federal government and all key provincial governments in Canada.To date, our leadership has supported the establishment of over $3 billion of public investment programs in the renewable fuels sector and the implementation of provincial and federal renewable fuels standards from British Columbia to Ontario. These measures drove the early investment and growth in the production and use of renewable fuels in Canada.We are now actively leading the development of the next phase of renewable industry growth in Canada. Renewable fuel demand will expand significantly under the federal government’s Clean Fuel Standard and other key provincial regulations. Clean growth programs are being designed and deployed to support new capacity buildout. Carbon pricing policies will materially impact both production and use of renewable fuels. This is a key opportunity – today’s efforts will drive tomorrow’s results. Show less
