Clean Energy Centre to Invest in Low-Carbon Innovation, Drive Emissions Reduction
The Government of British Columbia, Government of Canada and Shell Canada are each committing funding toward the new B.C. Centre for Innovation and Clean Energy and collaborating to decarbonize the economy and scale up clean energy.
The centre will bring together innovators, industry, governments and academics to accelerate the commercialization and scale-up of B.C.-based clean-energy technologies. It will also be a catalyst for new partnerships and world-leading innovation to deliver near- and longer-term carbon emission reductions.
The centre’s initial focus areas for funding and project delivery will include renewable natural gas, hydrogen, and carbon capture, utilization and storage.
