Transforming wood waste into energy: How SFU’s new biomass plant fuels our community
SFU expects to reduce greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) from heating by 80 per cent now that the new $33-million Corix biomass plant has begun operation. The GHG saved is equivalent to the emissions from 900 homes every year.
Operational fleet electrification
To reduce vehicle emissions and improve air quality, Kamaria Kuling investigates the benefits and challenges of replacing SFU’s operational vehicle fleet with low or zero emission vehicles such as electric vehicles, hybrid electric vehicles and hydrogen fuel cell vehicles.
