Project Portfolio

Carbonzero is pleased to provide our clients with carbon offset projects of different standards and varieties to assist in meeting with their carbon reduction goals.

We support Canadian based projects that create jobs, and support the local communities in which they are originated. Offsets are created when projects are undertaken to permanently reduce GHG emissions such as building retrofits, reduced consumption of fossil fuels, or the displacement of non-renewables into energy sources such as wind and solar. For more information, please visit our FAQ or Standards.

Niagara, ON - Landfill Gas to Energy Project

The Landfill Gas to Energy Project is publicly listed on the CSA CleanProjects Registry and has been 3rd party verified under ISO-14064-2 by ICF International. This project collects, captures and recovers landfill gas originating at Niagara, Ontario’s East Quarry Landfill, and processes it into a useable fuel source for distribution via pipeline to a nearby recycled paper mill. Previously, a significant amount of landfill gas was released into the atmosphere where greenhouse gases contribute to the negative effects of climate change. more

ON/QC - Food Waste Valorization Project

The Food Waste Valorization Project is publicly listed on the CSA CleanProjects Registry and has been 3rd party verified under ISO-14064-2 by Grant Thornton LLP. The project, undertaken by Canada's leading processor of canned and frozen vegetables, avoids methane emissions in six Ontario and Quebec based processing plants by valorizing organic waste residues into nutritional products for animals. The avoidance of methane production from anaerobic degradation reduces a significant amount of emissions from being released into the atmosphere where greenhouse gases contribute to the negative effects of climate change. more

Montreal, QC - Social Housing Retrofit Project

The Social Housing Retrofit Project is publicly listed on the CSA CleanProjects Registry and has been 3rd party verified under ISO-14064-2 by Grant Thornton LLP. This project was implemented by Office municipal d'habitation de Montréal's (OMHM) and utilizes new and energy efficient technologies which replace inefficient gas boilers, piping systems, and allow for the fuel switching of heat generation systems from natural gas to electricity. more

Fredericton, NB - Landfill Gas Capture Project

The Landfill Gas Capture Project is publicly listed on Blue Registry and has been 3rd party verified under VER+ by Det Norske Veritas AS (DNV). The project, undertaken by the Fredericton Region Solid Waste Commission (FRSWC), captures and flares landfill gas containing methane, thus significantly reducing the global warming potential of the greenhouse gases released to the atmosphere. FRSWC represents the first project in Canada to be validated and verified under the VER+ standard. more

Recent Projects

ON/QC - Food Processing Energy Efficiency Project

The Food Processing Energy Efficiency Project is publicly listed on the CSA CleanProjects Registry and has been 3rd party verified under ISO-14064-2 by Grant Thornton LLP. The project, undertaken by Canada's leading processor of canned and frozen vegetables, eliminates greenhouse gas emissions from fossil fuel consumption and electricity production from six Ontario and Quebec based food processing plants by the implementation of energy efficient technologies at each facility. The project activity made it possible to consume less energy, therefore reducing a significant amount of emissions from being released into the atmosphere where greenhouse gases contribute to the negative effects of climate change.

Kapuskasing, ON - Forestry Project

A land-based carbon sequestration project designed to mitigate climate change, create employment opportunities for community and first nation residents, and develop forest ecosystems that will enhance adaptability of the local community and ecosystems to climate change. This project represents the first in Canada to be validated and verified under the CCBA standard.

Cowley, AB - Wind Farm Project

Carbonzero has funded renewable energy development in Southern Alberta.
