I golfed with a BSD at a medium size power producer in Alberta and asked him why they still allowed flaring. He said they do it because the province lets them. There is little to no reason they couldn't capture that stuff and make steam from it.

He also said you need to be around 5MW for the math to work and be close to a transmission line.

Random aside, anyone know what they flare at the sewage plant just off of Deerfoot Trail?
