As major projects compete for limited clean power, B.C. will need to focus on system impacts, economic value, rate implications, & opportunity cost

Will Canadian LNG increase or decrease emissions?
Evidence suggests that expanding Canadian LNG will increase domestic emissions and have uncertain implications for global emissions.

Key points:
🏠 B.C.’s tight electricity outlook isn’t being driven by households
🏭 The real step-change pressures come from large industrial projects (LNG and mines)
🏝️ Drought years severely limit BC generation
🏗️ B.C. Hydro isn't modelling for all the current LNG and mine proposals to go through

Upshot:
✔️Carbon pricing is effective (avg policy reduced emissions by ~10%)
✔️Policy design & country context matter more than simple carbon💲
✔️ Carbon pricing gets more effective with time (maybe even when $ is constant)
