Energy From Waste
July 10, 2013
“It can’t be done” was what I heard people mutter as the meeting room emptied. “There’s no way any government in Canada will approve an energy-from-waste plant.”
Five years later, the EFW industry is about to double in size.
So how did it grow by 100 per cent over a few short years when so many experts thought growth of any kind to be impossible?
In short, it’s a rate of success made possible by taking a diligent, strategic approach to project development, and by proactively focusing on transparent communications.
The industry continues to face opposition from groups too quick to label EFW as “controversial,” but the future is bright because, going-forward, vendors, regulators and government will continue to apply some of the most important PresterJohn “lessons learned.”
