1 Bioheat Community of Practice Northern Ontario Bioeconomy Strategy Update March 12, 2015
2 Today Share NO-BS framework and scope Share project types Drill down on the 100 KM Heat Diet Trigger discussion Build networks Call to action
3 About the BIC Mandate: Develop a sustainable bioeconomy for northern Ontario
4 Definition: Bioeconomy An economy founded on biomass instead of fossil fuels where the basic building blocks for materials, chemicals and energy are derived from renewable biological resources, such as plant and animal sources McCormick, Kes and Kautto, Niina, The Bioeconomy in Europe: An Overview, Journal of Sustainability, 2013
5 Definition: Bioproducts From Fossil Fuels to Biomass
6 Drivers Sustainable economic development Northern energy poverty is heat poverty Harvest future market opportunities First Nations engagement - UOI Critical plank in GHG reduction strategy

13 Reality Check Bioenergy Still 5 years to get ECA Fragmented policy and regulatory barriers Wasted resources in one-off battles Little development of domestic bioenergy market All projects Challenges securing supply Immature supply chains Few opportunities for touch and feel Northern communities have scarce resources Minimal benefit-sharing with FN s and muni s No over-arching strategy
14 Policy and Regulatory Framework MOE&CC Environmental Compliance Approvals MOE&CC Renewable Energy Approval MNR&F - Forest tenure reform MOE Electricity vs Energy MG&CS TSSA boiler regulations OMAFRA Agricultural exemptions Policy holes Quebec no construction waste to landfills UK renewable heat incentives Internalized price of carbon CETA - non-tariff trade barriers disappear No over-arching strategy
15 Northern Ontario Bioeconomy Strategy Union of Ontario Indians & Nipissing University/BIC
16 Northern Ontario Bioeconomy Strategy Project Outline Develop framework (SEP-DEC) Take it to the people (JAN-FEB) Identify demo project locations and partners (FEB-MAR) Finalize the strategy (MAR-APR) Secure funding to implement the strategy (MAR-APR) Mission to Finland and Sweden (JUN) Prioritize model/foundational projects (Summer 2015) Host Northern Bioeconomy Conference (Fall 2015) Develop model/foundational projects ( )

22 Northern Ontario Bioeconomy Strategy Biocomps & Biochems Challenges: Growing market for comps & chems Lean capacity for innovation Identification of the killer app Perceptions Proposed Projects: Phase 1 CLT/EW project Light manufacturing bioproduct park Phase 2 Industrial Biochemicals & Biocomposites
23 Northern Ontario Bioeconomy Strategy Challenges: Ensuring respectful/sustainable marketing of traditional foods/meds Food security Medicines & Foods Proposed Projects: Develop new market model Biomass greenhouses
24 Northern Ontario Bioeconomy Strategy Skills & Training Coordinated and timely training and skills Ensure traditional knowledge is captured and shared Leverage Biomass Innovation Centre curriculum Sustainable Harvesting Bioenergy 101 Commercial Bioenergy Manitoulin Expositor
25 Northern Ontario Bioeconomy Strategy Policy and Regulatory Reform Top-down regulatory and policy modernization initiative MOE & CC Inter- and Intra- Ministry cooperation and coordination Provincial support of NO-BS Insurance policy reform Task force created to drive the above
26 Model Bioeconomy Region No access to natural gas = huge energy costs Economic collapse after forestry downturn Youth outmigration, shuttered commercial sector, unemployment 10%> than avg First community managed forest in the new tenure model Nawiinginokiima - Ojibway word for working together Ojibways of the Pic River First Nation, Pic Mobert First Nation, Hornepayne Aboriginal community, Marathon, Terrace Bay, Hornepayne, Manitouwadge and White River District heating with biomass 100 km heat diet Mush sector conversion Bioproduct light manufacturing Greenhouses
