Ottawa announces funding for five Alberta carbon capture projects

  • Energy Minister Tim Hodgson announced a $21.5-million federal investment in five Alberta carbon capture projects advancing carbon storage and emissions reduction.
  • This funding responds to Alberta Premier Danielle Smith's proposed 'grand bargain' linking emissions-cutting projects with a yet-unbuilt West Coast crude oil pipeline to expand market access.
  • The projects include Bow Valley Carbon's $10-million CO2 capture near Cochrane, storage hubs by Enbridge and Enhance Energy, and OCCAM's Technologies' work on diesel engine modifications.
  • Minister Hodgson emphasized that the key issue is not about production itself, but about successfully bringing superior products to market before competitors, underscoring the importance of carbon capture in this effort.
  • This investment supports Canada's clean energy goals, creates jobs, and advances technology while Alberta pursues energy infrastructure growth and better export opportunities.
