The Canadian Hydrogen Association (CHA) has welcomed Prime Minister Mark Carney and the Liberal Party of Canada following their recent election victory in Ottawa. The CHA expressed their excitement to collaborate with the new government to advance Canada's position in low-carbon hydrogen development and strengthen the nation's role as a global energy leader. Prime Minister Carney's energy platform, aiming to position Canada as a leading energy superpower, is viewed positively by the CHA. The proposed policies, such as maintaining the industrial carbon tax, introducing new incentives, and expediting permitting timelines for major infrastructure projects, are expected to create a conducive environment for hydrogen projects nationwide. Additionally, the government's support for carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) technologies, particularly in small modular reactor (SMR) + CCUS projects, is seen as a step towards enhancing clean hydrogen production. Nicolas Hilario, the Interim President and CEO of the CHA, highlighted the industry's readiness to work with the government to drive clean innovation and create jobs, emphasizing the importance of accelerating project deployment and strengthening Canada's competitiveness in the global clean energy economy. As the new government transitions into office, the CHA reaffirms its commitment to supporting the Government of Canada in advancing various hydrogen pathways and implementing the necessary policy frameworks to establish Canada as a global leader in the hydrogen sector.
