The evolving energy transition supports society’s climate related goals by reducing energy-related greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions 和 incorporating low-carbon fuels 和 infrastructure into the energy system. We are playing a proactive role to support positive change – embracing the energy transition that is underway 和 contributing to a lower-carbon energy world.
Our GHG Emissions Reduction Plan
We have set ambitious greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reduction targets including:
到2050年净零排放
Position to achieve zero emissions from our operations, on a net basis, by 2050.
These targets address Scope 1 和 2 emissions, using a 2019 baseline year for planning purposes.
Our GHG Emissions Reduction Plan outlines our strategies to work towards these goals, while also developing next-generation energy solutions for the future.
Our roadmap to 2050
We intend to work towards our goals through a variety of strategies across our business units. We are working with customers 和 other partners within our industry, fostering innovation, 和 investing in research 和 development. We are adopting emerging technologies as they evolve, 安全驾驶, reliable 和 sustainable operations.
Beyond our own direct emissions, we are developing infrastructure 和 services that help decarbonize the energy system 和 reduce the full lifecycle GHG emissions of the energy we deliver. 例如, we will continue to assess 和 progress opportunities to transport renewable natural gas 和 hydrogen, develop renewable power projects, develop carbon capture, utilization 和 storage (CCUS) infrastructure, 和 develop other low-carbon technologies such as pumped hydro power storage.
现代化 our existing systems 和 assets
Reduce fugitive methane emissions, 泄漏, venting 和 flaring associated with regular operations 和 maintenance, 和 improve overall operational efficiency.
除去碳素 our energy consumption
Seek low-carbon energy sources to support our operations.
投资于 low-carbon energy 和 infrastructure
Develop a broad range of new low-carbon energy solutions for today 和 for the future.
开车 digital solutions 和 technologies
Develop 和 deploy software 和 systems to digitize our operations 和 monitor emissions – includes system automation, AI 和 machine learning applications.
利用 carbon credits 和 offsets
Evaluate 和 leverage carbon offsets 和 assess opportunities to develop nature-based solutions.
Building on strong foundations
Throughout our 70-year history, our people have found innovative solutions to the energy challenges of the day. We have been working towards emissions reduction for over two decades 和 have more than 15 years’ experience with renewables 和 lower-carbon infrastructure. We are continually learning, collaborating with industry partners, investing in technology, 和 evolving to ensure our business remains sustainable. These are strong foundations to build from.
TC Energy is a signatory to the Methane Guiding Principles, which focus on actions to reduce methane emissions across the natural gas supply chain.
We are collaborating with industry groups on methane reduction initiatives including:
- Interstate 天然气 Association of America (INGAA) ONE Future Coalition
- U.S 环境al Protection Agency’s (EPA) 天然气 STAR program
- Canadian Energy Partnership for 环境al Innovation (CEPEI)
- Canadian Emissions Reduction Innovation Consortium (CanERIC), an initiative of the Petroleum Technology Alliance Canada (PTAC)
We have committed $75 MILLION to venture funds developing clean energy technologies – Energy Impact Partners (EIP)在美国.S. 和 NGIF (天然气 Innovation Fund) Cleantech Ventures 在加拿大.
We are a founding member of the Emerging Fuels Institute established by the Pipeline Research Council International (PRCI) in 2021.
