Attend this webinar if you have interest in, or are regulated by Canadian carbon pricing
The Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the Government of Canada and Alberta represents a turning point in national climate policy moving into the 2026 federal benchmark equivalency analysis, signalling compromise and a stronger commitment to Alberta's industrial carbon pricing system (TIER).
Our expert panel will provide clarity on the new rules governing compliance, investment, and project development in Canada’s largest industrial emissions sector.
We will provide a detailed analysis of the central carbon market developments, including:
- Early TIER Market Responses and latest TIER pricing indicators.
- Decoding the New TIER Price Target: Analysis of the commitment to a minimum effective credit price of CAD 130/tonne and the process for establishing sector-specific stringency factors for oil & gas and electricity.
- Market Reliability: Understanding the commitment to ensuring Alberta’s carbon market functions reliably to provide long term certainty.
- Regulatory Trade-Offs following the federal government's decision to withhold the Oil and Gas Emissions Cap and suspend the Clean Electricity Regulations (CER) in Alberta.
- CCUS and Compliance Certainty: Implications for the Pathways CCUS project as a prerequisite for the pipeline, including the extension of the federal Investment Tax Credits (ITCs) and the Alberta Carbon Capture Incentive Program (ACCIP).
- Key Deadlines: Tracking the most important dates for the market, including the April 1, 2026 deadlines for the industrial carbon pricing and methane equivalency agreements.
