The Path to 2030-2050 Emissions Targets for BC's Clean Energy Sector

The Province of British Columbia, through their progressive CleanBC program, has set province-wide GHG emissions reduction targets of 40%, 60% and 80% for 2030, 2040, and 2050.

While BC produces clean energy in the form of hydroelectricity, 68% of energy demand in BC is being met through refined petroleum products and natural gas. 

This introductory document is meant to provide a snapshot of the roadmaps in use in the energy sector in BC, to provide a strategic overview of the path to the targets for 2030-2050, and to identify areas where the industry would benefit from further support in order to achieve the targets.
