It takes a diverse team of dedicated employees to lead the transition to a lower-carbon energy future for B.C. We proudly deliver renewable energy, natural gas, electricity and propane to 1.2 million customers. As the province’s largest energy provider, we’re putting more than 100 years of knowledge and experience into practice on our path to achieve provincial climate action goals by 2030 and our long-term vision to 2050.
We can achieve a lower-carbon energy future by driving forward with innovative solutions like delivering renewable and low-carbon gases to our customers and offering new energy-efficient technologies for B.C. homes and businesses. Our progress supports our Clean Growth Pathway to 2050, CleanBC Roadmap to 2030, the Paris Climate Agreement and the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. By working together with our customers, community groups, Indigenous communities, government and industry we continue to make strong progress year over year to help reduce our customers’ greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. We’re growing our Renewable Natural Gas2 (RNG) supply by partnering with suppliers who operate farms, landfills, wastewater treatment facilities. We see a future with more renewable and low-carbon gases flowing through our system in place of conventional natural gas. We plan to exceed the 15 per cent renewable and low-carbon gas target by 2030, as outlined in the CleanBC Roadmap. We’re also investing in research to better understand how to safely blend hydrogen into our system to help us further decarbonize our gas system. We continue to increase investment in our conservation and energy efficiency programs helping more customers upgrade to high-efficiency gas and electric appliances to lower their energy use and GHG emissions. We’re also taking action to introduce the next generation of high-efficiency gas technology, like gas heat pumps that can achieve efficiencies of more than 100 per cent, helping further decarbonize B.C. homes and businesses.
We continue to increase supply of compressed natural gas (CNG), liquefied natural gas (LNG) and RNG while providing incentives to fleet operators, helping them lower emissions in their vehicles. Over the years, we’ve provided support for more than 1,000 medium and heavy-duty vehicles so they can operate on CNG or LNG. In the Okanagan and Kootenays, we’re expanding our electric vehicle (EV) charging network to help make it easier to own and drive an EV. We’re committed to supporting the growth of LNG as a cleaner fuel to reduce GHG emissions in the marine sector. We’ve been providing LNG fuel for ferries for years—six marine vessels from BC Ferries and four from Seaspan Ferry Corporation are using liquified natural gas (LNG) instead of higher-carbon fuels such as diesel.
