☆ Canada’s Justin Trudeau climate strategy questioned after carbon tax dilution
  + stars: | 2023-11-14 | by ( Nia Williams Steve Scherer | Nia Williams | Steve Scherer | ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +4 min
Experts say Trudeau's carbon pricing scheme, known as the carbon tax, works well and cannot be easily replaced. Even the left-leaning New Democrats, who support Trudeau's government in parliament and have previously defended the carbon tax, are calling for the exemption. Analysts said the carbon tax carve-out is another example of inconsistent policy. CARBON TAX REBATEThe carbon tax is intended to discourage use of fossil fuels and accelerate a switch to clean energy, but the recent carve-out underlines how fragile climate policy is in the face of pressing political calculations. In September, Bank of Canada governor Tiff Macklem said the carbon tax contributes about 0.15 percentage points to the inflation rate, which was 3.8% that month.

Oil rigs are seen at Vaca Muerta shale oil and gas drilling, in the Patagonian province of Neuquen, Argentina January 21, 2019. He said oil and gas reserves are depleting at 5-7% annually, and output will decline if companies stop investing to replace them. The Canadian government has not finalised subsidies for projects to capture and sequester emissions and is developing a cap on oil and gas emissions. Not all oil companies are reducing spending on production. Greater oil production could provide the revenue to pursue net-zero aims, Rath said.

☆ Renewables companies hit brakes on Alberta projects after govt delays approvals
  + stars: | 2023-08-21 | by ( Rod Nickel | Thomson Reuters | Covers Energy | ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +4 min
Alberta, the country's main oil and gas producing province, paused approvals on Aug. 3 of new renewable electricity generation projects over one megawatt until Feb. 29, chilling investment in the fast-growing industry. The pause is necessary to address concerns about renewables' reliability and land use, said a spokesperson for Alberta's utilities minister. A second company has paused design work on its first Alberta project, Dye added. Along with domestic firms, foreign companies like Berkshire Hathaway's (BRKa.N) BHE Canada, EDF Renewables and Enel Green Power generate renewable power in Alberta. The pause directly affects 15 projects in the approvals queue, the government spokesperson said.

☆ Canada to set up tax credits for clean tech, launch growth fund
  + stars: | 2022-11-03 | by ( Rachel Parsons | ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +2 min
OTTAWA, Nov 3 (Reuters) - Canada will introduce refundable tax credits for clean technologies worth up to 30% of investment costs, in a bid to close competitive gaps with the United States in scaling up green technologies, the government said on Thursday. The clean-tech tax credits will be offered for investors in net-zero technologies, battery storage and clean hydrogen, according to the so-called fall economic statement (FES) presented to the House of Commons by Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland. The tax will generate an estimated C$2.1 billion over five years and will come into force on Jan 1, 2024. "In terms of trying to foster business investments, I don't think it's well targeted," said Robert Asselin, senior vice president of policy at the Business Council of Canada. In next year's budget, Canada will introduce new measures to increase advanced manufacturing competitivness, the document said.
