Pollution Pricing System Details Released

Environment and Climate Change Canada detailed Canada's pollution pricing mechanism and its implications for automotive manufacturers. The system aims to reduce emissions and could influence the cost structure of automotive production, particularly for traditional combustion engine vehicles. The plan includes a legislated path to $170 per tonne of carbon by 2030. Automotive industry stakeholders are advised to consider the potential impact on production and compliance costs.
