The main goal of the RNG Project Visual Map is to facilitate public acceptability of RNG projects in Canada. It will be especially helpful for project developers in the private sector, indigenous communities, and local governments when they are exploring the potential of RNG technology and looking to educate project stakeholders on the potential and benefits of this technology. Additionally, an easy to use interface and accessible information mainly presented in visual form makes this tool a valuable resource for farmers, communities, educational institutions including schools, colleges and universities, and the general public.
Easily accessible and free information on operating RNG projects that will help project developers to educate stakeholders and the community.
Reduction of the costs associated with information search, education, and with site visits.
All information is available in one place and updated regularly, there is no need to travel to learn more about existing projects.
Ability to help organic waste producers (for example, farmers, industries, cities, etc.) find a local RNG project that can take their organic waste and produce clean energy.
Acceleration of the RNG industry as clean fuel producers help the provinces to meet the requirements of landfill organics bans and organics diversion goals.
Increase of awareness and education on RNG projects ensures the acceptability of clean fuels projects in Canada.

RNG Projects in Development in Canada
The RNG Projects Visual Map addresses one of the main challenges of RNG project development in Canada – lack of resources to ensure the social acceptability of the project and education of the community. To help project developers to educate the decision makers and community, and considering a rising interest in visual data, the RNG Projects Visual Map consolidates the existing visual information on RNG projects in Canada and abroad.
BiogasWorld is a business generation network and project support platform, connecting the suppliers of products and services with project developers. BiogasWorld delivers services via BiogasWorld and Biogas Community platforms.
To advance clean fuels awareness, Natural Resources Canada provides funding for Clean Fuels Awareness projects that aim to address awareness and knowledge gaps among Canadians on clean fuels and clean fuel technologies across all industry/commercial applications and in the general population.
Biogas Community is the community for professionals in the biogas and RNG/ biomethane industry to share knowledge, information and business opportunities to grow this industry together.
