Canada Announces “The Hydrogen Strategy”
Today's launch of the Hydrogen Strategy for Canada by the Honourable Seamus O'Regan was fantastic news for the country. A federal investment of $1.5B into a Low-Carbon and Zero-Emissions Fuels Fund coupled with the Clean Fuel Standard will help grow the country's economy. Additionally this incentive could potentially reduce annual GHG emissions by up to 45M tonnes/yr by 2030, while creating up to 350,000 new jobs by 2050.
Hydra was especially pleased to see the inclusion of dual-fuel co-combustion engines and the benefits of diesel engine retrofits as an important role in supporting hydrogen demand in the near term.
