CanGEa comments on 2022 Budget

4/11/2022

 
On April 7, 2022, the Federal Government released their 2022 Budget. Within the Budget, there was no direct mention of support for Canada’s geothermal industry. However, many programs used by the geothermal industry have been recapitalized, which is welcome news! CanGEA will continue to advocate for geothermal-specific funding opportunities and greater recognition at the Federal level for the industry.   

Canada Releases 2030 Emissions Reduction Plan

4/4/2022

 
​The 2030 Emissions Reduction Plan details the actions that are already driving significant climate reductions. The new measures will ensure that Canada reduces emissions across the entire economy to reach its emissions reduction target of 40 to 45 percent below 2005 levels by 2030 and put us on a path to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050. This Plan is designed to be a comprehensive roadmap that reflects levels of ambition to guide emissions reduction efforts in each sector.
 
This Plan has recapitalized two key programs that the geothermal industry uses:
  • Low Carbon Economy Fund.
  • Smart Renewables and Electrification (and heat) Pathways.
 
The 2030 Emissions Reduction Plan supports fuel switching and retrofits for building heating and cooling. CanGEA supports this Plan an its efforts in playing an instrumental role in the continuation to diversify Canada’s energy mix.
