Canada was among the first countries to regulate oil and gas methane emissions nationally. It is also the first country to commit to developing a regulatory plan aiming for at least a 75% reduction by 2030 against 2012 levels.
Reducing methane emissions from the oil and gas sector includes many low-cost solutions and is one of the most effective ways to slow the pace of climate warming. Although the industry is a major economic contributor, it is also the largest source of greenhouse gas emissions. In 2020, the sector produced 38% of Canada’s methane.
As a global leader in developing and implementing innovative technologies to detect, track, and address methane emissions, Canada continues developing and sharing innovations in methane science as accurate measurement and quantification of methane is critical to achieving Canada’s methane targets.
Canada’s clean technology innovations are providing much-needed solutions to help accelerate the global momentum to reduce methane emissions. Canada’s expertise in methane technologies capitalizes on the $3.6 trillion clean tech market, creating green energy jobs now and in the future.
Canada provides global leadership and support to tackle methane emissions through innovative cleantech solutions, financial assistance to developing countries, and participation in international climate initiatives to help other countries reduce their methane emissions.
According to the recent "All Together Now" report by the Pembina Institute, Canada’s overall emissions have started to decline meaningfully, falling by 7.1 percent since 2005. The report revisits a 2021 assessment of climate policy-making across Canada’s federal, provincial, and territorial governments, an environmental think tank. The report assessed jurisdictional performance by using a broad range of indicators that represent the best practices in climate and energy policy, noting British Columbia and Quebec lead the pack while Alberta and Saskatchewan lag behind the rest of Canada on climate policy.
Envana's team of experts is committed to supporting your methane mitigation roadmap. Envana is a proud Silver Sponsor of this year's Methane Mitigation Canada in Calgary from September 30 to October 2.
The need for rapid and effective action is clear, especially given the target to slash methane emissions from the sector by over 75% by 2030. The importance of applying best practices for detection, measurement, reporting, and reducing methane from the O&G industry has reached unprecedented levels. This is escalated under the Government of Canada's latest proposal for new standards.
