Alberta’s Green House gas offset system is a compliance mechanism for entities regulated under the province’s mandatory GHG emission intensity-based regulatory system.
As part of the 2002 Climate Change and Emissions Management Act (CCEMA), the 2007 Specified Gas Emitters Regulation passed by the Alberta legislature, LFE’s or large final emitters (any facility in the province that emits more than 100,000 metric tons of CO2e of GHGs per year) are required to reduce their GHG intensity by 12% per year.
The Regulation, which took effect on July 1, 2007, represents the first GHG emissions legislation in Canada.
Alberta's current environmental legislation sets out clear rules and obligations for the protection, enhancement and wise use of the environment. Alberta Environment works with Albertans to ensure the quality of our environment is maintained, using an effective and efficient regulatory framework.
Regulated facilities in Alberta that are not able to meet their reduction obligations through direct facility improvements may be able to meet their emissions intensity reduction targets through three compliance mechanisms:
- The purchase or use of Emissions Performance Credits, EPCs.
- By Making contributions to the Climate Change and Emissions Management Fund, currently at a price of CND 15 per metric ton of CO2e; or
- Through the purchase of Alberta-based offset credits.
