    Modernizing Canada’s Energy Efficiency Act to Improve Affordability & Competitiveness

    The Government of Canada is taking action to build a clean, affordable and economically competitive future for all Canadians. Modernizing legislation and delivering programs to enable tenants, homeowners, building operators, manufacturers and industrial facilities to choose energy-efficient equipment and technologies helps them save money and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. To that end, amendments to modernize the Energy Efficiency Act were introduced in the Senate. First passed in 1992, the Act aims to reduce the overall energy consumption of energy-using products and allow consumers to make informed purchasing decisions. Since 1995, Canadian households, businesses and industries have saved over $110 billion as a result of regulations under the Act. It is estimated that the Canadian industrial sector will see annual savings of $743 million in 2030, thanks to regulations already in place.

    ABB & Charbone Hydrogen Sign Agreement to Advance North American Green Hydrogen Production Facilities

    ABB and Charbone Hydrogen Corporation have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) agreement to collaborate on the development of up to 15 modular and scalable green hydrogen production facilities across North America over the next five years, providing a clean fuel source for existing hydrogen users and heavy industrial processes such as steelmaking, which currently use grey hydrogen as an energy source. The MoU scope positions ABB as the preferred supplier for the design, engineering, fabrication, testing and supply of modular and standard electrical substations (eHouses) for the interconnection between production facilities and local utilities. ABB will support Charbone in standardizing basic engineering for systems and components across its project portfolio, to increase energy efficiency and reliability. Future scope may also see ABB operate as the main automation, electrification and telecom contractor depending on project requirements. Among the sites covered by the collaboration is Charbone’s flagship Sorel-Tracy facility near Montreal in Québec, Canada. The facility is expected to be connected to the Hydro-Québec grid by the end of quarter two in 2025, using hydro electricity to power green hydrogen electrolyzers. The plant will create a blueprint for the design and engineering of modular and scalable equipment for other sites being developed by Charbone. The next project to get underway will be in the greater Detroit area in the US, which is the manufacturing base for major automotive companies.
