Nexterra Systems Corp., Vancouver, B.C., Canada, a supplier of biomass heat and power systems, has been ranked among the Deloitte 2010 Technology Fast 50, a ranking of the 50 fastest growing technology companies in Canada. Nexterra's ranking is based on an increase in revenues of 509% from 2005 to 2009.

As part of its objective to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050, the University of British Columbia in Vancouver British Columbia is installing a new 2 MWe biomass CHP system to provide renewable heat and power to its Point Grey Campus. The system will feature a new high efficiency biomass-fuelled combined heat and power system (CHP System) process developed by Nexterra Systems in conjunction with GE Power & Water's gas engine division. This new CHP project represents a paradigm shift away from large, centralized biomass plants to smaller and more efficient biomass plants ideally suited for on-site energy generation at universities, municipalities and small industrial sites.
This informational presentation will introduce the project at UBC, the drivers for the biomass project, the project plan and technology and the benefits for the University.
