Sunbay Port Hope (SPH) is the first publicly‐announced project in Canada, built by
CHO-Power™ and the Project Consortium.
SPH will closely conform to the standard technical and commercial formats
identified as the basic model. It will intake 400 tons per day of feedstock and
produce 20 MW net to the grid.
SPH is located on land under control of the Project Consortium in Port Hope Ontario, approximately 100 kilometers from Toronto and close to regional population centres (Cobourg, Peterborough, Belleville, Kingston).
The feedstock will come from Turtle Island Recycling one
of the largest waste haulers in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA).
Feedstock will be composed of low moisture, high‐energy material including recycling residuals from ICI wastes and textiles.
SPH has strong support from the local community, including the Mayor and Council.
It is proceeding successfully through each phase and is now engaged with permitting and approvals until Spring 2009.
