Ottawa – A new independent third party analysis of Canadian renewable fuel production conclusively confirms that Canadian produced ethanol and biodiesel significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
Cheminfo Services Inc., a specialized environment, energy, transportation, and chemicals consulting firm was hired by the Canadian Renewable Fuels Association to analyze a sample of eight ethanol plants and three biodiesel plants in Canada. The analysis was conducted using the most recent version of the Natural Resources Canada GHGenius lifecycle assessment model for transportation fuels.
