Pembina Institute comments on the proposed Technology Innovation and Emissions Reduction (TIER) system Formal submission to Environment and Parks, Government of Alberta

Publication
Aug. 30, 2019 - By Jan Gorski, Duncan Kenyon

Alberta’s proposed TIER system is a step in the wrong direction. The TIER system would disrupt the investment landscape, create policy uncertainty, and provide a significantly weaker signal to industry to reduce emissions than is currently provided by the CCIR. Lowering ambition of a recently implemented and well-designed policy that meets the dual objective of reducing emissions while protecting competitiveness would not benefit industry, nor Albertans.

Why Alberta’s current pollution pricing is better for reducing oil and gas emissions

Blog
March 14, 2019 - By Jan Gorski

Alberta has had a price on carbon pollution since 2007, beginning with the Specified Gas Emitters Regulation (SGER), which paved the way to the stronger system now in place under Alberta’s Climate Leadership Plan (CLP).
