Welcome to Energy Connections Canada’s Energy Transition Hub

Our goal is to aid the safe, reliable and economical transmission of CO2 and H2 via pipelines. Shipping these future molecules will be a key step in decarbonization. We intend to achieve our goal by facilitating knowledge transfer across industry and with our partners in academia, polytechnic institutes, government agencies and regulators.

We will advance our efforts through three work streams:

1. Technical Gap Analysis: “What are the technical issues involved with safely, reliably and economically shipping CO2 and H2? Who is already doing what on these topics? What remains to be resolved?”
2. Regulatory Ready: “What legislation, regulation, guidelines, standards, and processes need to be changed or improved in order to facilitate timely approval of safe and reliable CO2 and H2 pipeline projects?
3. Building Public Confidence: “How can we ensure landowners and citizens-at-large have confidence in the benefits and safety of shipping CO2 and H2 in pipelines?”
