The Project

City Power Co-Gen is exploring the development of a high efficiency co-generation facility in Scarborough, Ontario to provide approximately 140 megawatts of power to the Ontario electricity grid and steam to the Atlantic Packaging paper mills at 111 and 333 Progress Avenue.

The proposed sites will encompass an area of approximately 1.6 hectares (4 acres) and is located in an industrial area at the northwest corner of Progress Avenue and Midland Avenue, just south of Highway 401.

The addresses of this site is 110 Progress Avenue, Scarborough, Ontario.

The co-generation facility will utilize clean natural gas to provide steam to two existing paper mills located on Progress Avenue and power to the Ontario electricity grid. Connection to the main transmission line corridor to the south of Lawrence Avenue will be via an underground transmission line constructed along Midland Avenue.

Please refer to tabs above to view the schematics of the proposed project.

PROJECT FEATURES

• Co-generation is a highly efficient, clean, quiet and safe process which uses the heat generated from producing electricity to make steam, essential for the plant’s paper manufacturing process.

• Proposed co-generation plant will use clean natural gas to produce approximately 140 MW of electricity.

• Co-generation is the most efficient use of natural gas for electricity production.

• All noise and air emissions will meet Ontario Ministry of the Environment (MOE) requirements.
