Natural gas is a fossil fuel that must be used in strict compliance with the environmental standards enacted by the governments. Boralex owns two natural gas-fired power stations: one in Kingsey Falls, Québec, and the other one in Blendecques, France. These two power stations use the cogeneration process in order to optimize the use of this great natural resource. We make sure that the thermal energy is recovered to supply the surrounding industries with steam. In this way, maximum energy efficiency is obtained. In addition, the use of natural gas is a choice that is also justified by the cleanliness of the resource, in comparison with others that are widely used, such as coal. The development of Boralex's natural gas-fired energy sector must be in line with its commitment to respect the environment in which it operates. This is why Boralex intends to comply with the environmental laws and regulations.
