In hopes of developing Canada's Clean Electrical Standard (CES) and accelerate progress toward a net-zero electricity grid by 2035, Steven Guilbeault, Canadian Minister of Environment and Climate Change, launched consultations on Tuesday.
According to a press release from the Canadian government, work on clean power will be critical to meet Canada's ambitious emissions reduction targets of 40 to 45% below 2005 levels by 2030 and net-zero emissions by 2050. Currently, 82% of Canada's electricity comes from non-emitting sources.
