The future site of the Empower Hamilton Facility, with our long-term landlord, HOPA, is an ideal location for our first commercial facility in Ontario and we look forward to making a meaningful difference to southern Ontario's landfills by diverting between 40,000 to 80,000 tonnes of asphalt shingle waste every year.

Having a location secured allows us to now commence permitting and government grant applications in early 2025, and to enter into advanced negotiations for feedstock and off-take agreements for the future Empower Hamilton Facility.
