RESOLUTE INAUGURATES POWER ISLAND AT THUNDER BAY PULP AND PAPER OPERATION
Tuesday, May 14, 2013

Source: Internet

MONTREAL, Canada - Resolute Forest Products has officially inaugurated a major power island producing green energy at its pulp and paper operation located in Thunder Bay, Ontario. The power island includes a refurbished and upgraded woodwaste boiler and a new 65-megawatt condensing turbine. Approved by Resolute in early 2011, the $64 million project took just over 21 months to complete.

The green power produced will be sold to the Ontario grid under a power purchase agreement between Resolute and the Ontario Power Authority.

To mark the inauguration, a ceremonial "throwing of the switch" was held on May 14 involving key company and government representatives. Richard Garneau and Resolute Chairman of the Board Richard B. Evans were joined by a number of government dignitaries.

Resolute Forest Products is a global leader in the forest products industry and has a diverse range of products, including newsprint, commercial printing papers, market pulp, and wood products. The company owns or operates over 40 pulp and paper mills and wood products facilities in the United States, Canada, and South Korea, as well as power generation assets in Canada. Resolute and other member companies of the Forest Products Association of Canada, as well as a number of environmental organizations, are partners in the Canadian Boreal Forest Agreement. The group works to identify solutions to conservation issues that meet the goal of balancing equally the three pillars of sustainability linked to human activities: environmental, social, and economic.
