Convertus has officially received all necessary approvals and permits to start building its new Biofuel facility in York Region, marking a major step forward for one of Canada’s most exciting green energy projects. With this milestone achieved, the facility is on track to meet its 2027 operational target.
"Finalizing all the permit requirements is a major achievement that allows us to move from planning to construction," said Arun Gudla, Vice President of Strategic Initiatives at Convertus Group, who is overseeing the development of the York Project. "These approvals are the result of close collaboration with local and provincial authorities and will ensure we remain on course to deliver a facility that embodies Convertus’ mission to close the loop for a more sustainable and circular approach to waste management."

Designed with innovation at its core, Convertus York will be the first biofuel plant in Canada to incorporate integrated CO2 liquefaction technology. This facility will be able to process up to 200,000 tons of organic waste annually from the Regional Municipality of York and surrounding areas using advanced anaerobic technology. Once complete, the Convertus York Biofuel Facility will help eliminate the transportation of organic waste to distant locations, resulting in an estimated 15,000 tons of CO2 emissions avoided each year. All materials received will be converted into renewable natural gas (RNG) and nutrient-rich organic fertilizers.
The process is expected to generate between 350,000 to 400,000 gigajoules (GJ) of RNG per year, enough to heat approximately 5,000 homes. This clean energy will be injected directly into the local gas grid, helping to reduce reliance on fossil fuels and significantly lower greenhouse gas emissions.
With permitting completed, Convertus now shifts its focus to the next phase, constructing a facility that will set a new benchmark for sustainable organic waste management and clean energy production in Canada.
