This is a green infrastructure program under the Investing in Canada plan”. The $200 million Emerging Renewables Program was launched in February 2018 to support the deployment of emerging renewable energy technologies and expand the portfolio of commercially viable renewable energy sources including available to provinces and territories that are working to reduce GHG emissions from their electricity sector. The call for proposals was launched on February 26, 2018 and closed on April 20, 2018. Four projects have since been announced; with $29.8 million in funding for a tidal energy project in the Bay of Fundy, Nova Scotia, $25.6 million for a deep geothermal energy project near Estevan, Saskatchewan, $15.3 million for a solar power project near Suffield, Alberta, and $25.4 million for a deep geothermal power project in the Municipal District of Greenview. These regulations made under the Canadian Environmental Protection Act, 1999 apply a performance standard to new coal-fired power plants and existing thermal power plants at the end of their life (generally 45 to 50 years). Amendments to the Reduction of Carbon Dioxide Emissions Regulations - Coal-fired Electricity Sector, which were finalized and published in Canada Gazette Part II on December 12, 2018, require all power generating stations in the coal meet an emissions performance standard of 420 tonnes of carbon dioxide per gigawatt hour of electricity produced (tonne of CO,/GWh) by 2030, at the latest. This performance standard aims to phase out electricity generation from coal-fired power plants by the end of their useful life or by 2030, whichever comes first. The program will invest up to $100 million to accelerate the transition to a clean growth economy by making better use of existing power plant capacity, increasing the penetration of renewable energy generation, increasing reliability, resiliency and agility of the electrical grid while maintaining cybersecurity and reducing GHG emissions. Twenty projects were selected to receive funding under this program. This is a green infrastructure program under the Investing in Canada &gt; plan.
