APRIL 12, 2022 – SARNIA, ONTARIO – Bioindustrial Innovation Canada (BIC) welcomes the Government of Ontario’s Low-Carbon Hydrogen Strategy as a needed pathway to ensuring the province’s clean, green, and sustainable future. The plan highlights the vast opportunities facing Ontario and the Sarnia-Lambton region as a significant hub for future low-carbon hydrogen development.
Through its natural resources, human capital, and geography, the province of Ontario is well-positioned to be a global leader in sustainable technologies. By providing a strong foundation for development, this new strategy will go a long way in improving the existing regulatory and investment environments facing emerging and innovative companies.
BIC understands that sustainable energy must be clean, reliable, and affordable. This low-carbon hydrogen strategy will further support innovators and existing companies to achieve these goals and facilitate economic benefits as Canada transitions toward a net-zero future.
