Lafarge’s new low-carbon fuel facility utilizes energy produced from C&D waste to help meet Canada’s net-zero goals

Lafarge Canada Inc., a member of Holcim Group, has officially commissioned its Low-Carbon Fuel (LCF) facility at its Exshaw cement plant in collaboration with Geocycle Canada. The $38 million facility will reduce the plant's reliance on traditional fuels. Up to 50 percent of natural gas used for one of its kilns will be replaced with alternative thermal energy produced from construction demolition waste, primarily discarded wood that would otherwise end up in landfills and emit methane. What this new facility means for Lafarge and Geocycle
