Golder is proud to have been recognized with the 2017 Award of Excellence in the Environment Category for our project: Multi-Criteria Industrial Site Location Analysis in the Edmonton Energy and Technology Park
In 2009, Edmonton City Council approved an Area Structure Plan for an Energy and Technology Park based on an eco-industrial hub concept that may include a polypropylene plant, an integrated ethylene, polyethylene and glycol plant, a fertilizer plant and/or a methanol plant.
Golder Associates Ltd. was retained by the City to assist in a multi-criteria spatial analysis using a unique sustainability analysis approach that evaluated and balanced 43 key project concerns and trade-offs including environmental, social and technical factors. This allowed the City to explore numerous options, save months of effort, reduce risk, and have greater confidence in its strategy.
