Description

The Climate Change Innovation and Technology Framework serves as the overarching guide for the investment of funds from the pricing of carbon emissions for innovation and clean technology. It supports investments in clean innovation across a number of technology areas, including hydrocarbons in the oil sands, renewable energy, green products and services, and other areas. Public investments will result in broad industry and public benefits, and will minimize the environmental impacts of technology deployment. And as discoveries and opportunities emerge in the technology and innovation sectors, the Framework will enable the province to adjust accordingly.
