Renewable energy This is why the Government of Canada and the Federation of Canadian Municipalities (FCM) are continuing to invest in projects to help communities from coast-to-coast-to-coast retrofit their buildings and reduce their greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.
Key Points:
- This is why the Government of Canada and the Federation of Canadian Municipalities (FCM) are continuing to invest in projects to help communities from coast-to-coast-to-coast retrofit their buildings and reduce their greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.
- The Community Building Retrofit initiative is part of a $950-million federal investment in FCM's Green Municipal Fund (GMF) and is designed to scale up energy efficiency and lower emissions across Canada.
- GMF, administered by the FCM, is funded through an endowment by the Government of Canada and helps local governments switch to sustainable practices faster.
- That's why we can only welcome, with support from the federal government, GMF's delivery of the Community Buildings Retrofit initiative to enable communities across Canada, including Ontario today, to lower their emissions and improve energy performance.

Renewable energy Canada can be a world-leading producer and exporter of clean hydrogen and associated technologies, and the federal government is helping to make that happen.
Key Points:
- Canada can be a world-leading producer and exporter of clean hydrogen and associated technologies, and the federal government is helping to make that happen.
- This program will accelerate commercial-scale hydrogen trade between Canada and Germany, secure early access for clean Canadian hydrogen producers in the German market and strengthen our two countries' efforts to fight climate change and enhance energy security.
- Prior to today's announcement, Canada has made significant efforts to support the production and export of clean hydrogen.
- It will help secure early market access for competitively priced clean energy products by Canadian industry and ensure good jobs, clean economic growth and emission reductions at home while strengthening energy security abroad.

Natural gas Projects funded by this call for proposals, and other work associated with the Centre of Excellence, are crucial given that methane emissions — particularly methane leaks, also known as fugitive methane emissions — have been consistently under-reported for decades, both in Canada and globally.
Key Points:
- Projects funded by this call for proposals, and other work associated with the Centre of Excellence, are crucial given that methane emissions — particularly methane leaks, also known as fugitive methane emissions — have been consistently under-reported for decades, both in Canada and globally.
- Canadians are global leaders in the technologies, regulations and science associated with methane emissions due to Canada's early leadership providing methane management solutions.
- The Centre of Excellence will help ensure Canada achieves its methane emissions reduction commitments and the economic, health and climate benefits that their achievement will bring."
- Canada joined by international partners in regulating and controlling methane emissions including the U.S., EU, China, Brazil, Colombia and Mexico.

Renewable energy These fuels, like gasoline and diesel, help power our economy, but their extraction and combustion represent a significant source of pollution in Canada.
Key Points:
- These fuels, like gasoline and diesel, help power our economy, but their extraction and combustion represent a significant source of pollution in Canada.
- Today, the Honourable Jonathan Wilkinson, Minister of Energy and Natural Resources, announced in Thorold, Ontario, a federal investment of $15 million to support six clean fuels projects across Canada, including $10 million for two projects in the Niagara region.
- This funding will help advance clean fuels while supporting new jobs, attracting more investments, and bringing more clean energy and technology businesses to our region.
- Launched in June 2021, the Clean Fuels Fund is investing $1.5 billion to grow the production of clean fuels in Canada, such as hydrogen, renewable diesel and natural gas, cellulosic ethanol, synthetic fuels and sustainable aviation fuel.
