Alberta changing industrial carbon tax program to recognize company investments in emissions reduction

Alberta's revised carbon pricing system lets major emitters fund site-based emissions technology investments and smaller emitters opt out in 2025 to ease regulatory pressures.

  • Alberta is changing its industrial carbon tax program to allow major emitters to account for investments in emissions reduction technology at their sites instead of paying into a provincial fund or buying carbon credits.
  • The province will also allow smaller emitters that are part of the program to opt out of it this year to reduce regulatory burdens and reinvest the savings into emission reduction or other operational improvements.
  • Premier Danielle Smith states that the changes to the Technology Innovation and Emissions Reduction program aim to bolster the competitiveness of Alberta's major industries, notably the oil sands.
