WEBINAR: Developments with CCS in Eastern Canada
The Canadian carbon capture story has been almost entirely about Alberta and Saskatchewan until now. Could Ontario and Quebec catch up? We’ll find out at our webinar on Sept 18.
Hear from:
Enbridge’s potential project to evaluate CO2 storage in a Cambrian aged saline reservoir in Southern Ontario Wayne Passmore, technical manager – business development with Enbridge Gas
• Ontario is currently advancing the Geologic Carbon Storage Act through the legislative process. Lake Erie offers potential storage sites, as it has a long history of natural gas production
• Ontario has less reservoir rock than in Alberta. There are political challenges, including lack of support for industrial carbon pricing, US tariffs.
• It means that interest in CO2 storage is generally “paused” but hopefully not forever. Public education and stakeholder engagement are needed and are ongoing
Developments with direct air capture and sequestration in Bécancour and Thetford, Quebec – Mathieu Bouchard, Vice President Public Policy and Regulatory Affairs, Deep Sky
• Deep Sky’s business model – DAC with the leading technologies, paid for as high quality carbon credits
•Projects in Quebec: Bécancour, Thetford Mines – and progress so far
Unlocking CO₂ storage in Eastern Canada through policy, regulations and carbon pricing – Mac Walton, International CCS Knowledge Centre, Manager, Policy & Commercial
• Eastern Canada’s CCS policy adoption is moving slower than Western provinces, making 2050 emissions targets difficult to meet.
• The CCUS Investment Tax Credit (ITC), an existing federal incentive, is set to halve in 2031, creating an urgency to establish Eastern frameworks now.
• The Eastern provinces’ clusters of industrial emitters point to potential carbon management hubs, but this hinges on advancing policies, aligning provincial regulations, and ensuring streamlined permitting processes for projects starts today.
