Federal Investment in Clean Fuels Technologies
On January 7, 2025, Canada's federal government announced over $11 million to support projects aimed at advancing clean and alternative fuels technologies. This funding, distributed through the Energy Innovation Program (EIP) and Clean Fuels Fund (CFF), targets industrial fuel switching and clean fuel production in high-emitting sectors. Projects include a pilot facility for sustainable diesel fuel in Quebec and a feasibility study for hydrogen gas production in Ontario. These initiatives aim to enhance the clean fuels sector and reduce CO2 emissions in industries such as cement production and aviation.
