Project Development and Investment
Camco originates project opportunities and advances projects from concept and underwriting to commissioning and ongoing management. This could entail advancing a project though the early permitting, feed stock negotiations, off-take contracting (PPA, commodity sales and/or environmental credit sales), engineering, technology selection and financial structuring. In addition to greenfield project development, Camco has also acquired and re-positioned existing projects.
Camco has a broad appreciation and understanding of the technology choices available. We believe an agnostic approach to technology selection produces the lowest cost, lowest risk and highest quality end result - we use proven technologies that have a track-record and predictable long-term operating costs.
​
Our years of experience have shown that performance-based contracting is the best approach to create a cost-effective project.
​
Though the waste-to-energy market technologies are similar, feed stocks, throughput, permitting constraints and commercial realities demand customized engineering and commercial solutions. Our approach reduces the overall risk for both financing and long-term operations.
WE UNDERSTAND THE DEVELOPMENT PROCESS
AND ITS MYRIAD OF RISKS
We invest our resources to help develop projects and commercial arrangements that are practical and financeable.​
WE DEVELOP BIOGAS PROJECTS THAT CONVERT WASTE STREAMS FROM:
-
Manure (dairy cow, poultry, swine)
-
Waste water (e.g. palm oil, tapioca, sugar cane)
-
Food waste
​
THE ENERGY PRODUCED CAN BE:
-
Sold to the grid as renewable energy, typically enjoying higher tariffs depending on national policy
-
Used on-site to displace higher GHG emission fuel (e.g. diesel, coal, etc.)
-
Sold as renewable gas, i.e compressed natural gas for use in transport or portable energy supply
