B.C. Plan Risks GHG Emissions from ‘Blue’ Hydrogen – The Energy Mix: “While B.C.’s new strategy promises to ramp up production of green
hydrogen, made from the province’s abundant renewable energy resources,
it also encourages continued development of natural gas for the
production of blue hydrogen, which still has significant greenhouse gas
emissions,” Karen Tam Wu, the Pembina Institute’s B.C. regional
director, said in a release.

By failing to prioritize green hydrogen production, the strategy
“misses B.C.’s clear regional opportunity to build a hydrogen economy on
a renewable energy foundation rather than on fossil fuels and maximize
the potential climate benefits hydrogen has to offer,” she added.
