Canada: Biofuels Annual

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)

In December 2018, Canada released a highly anticipated document outlining the beginnings of a nationwide framework for switching from a volumetric to a carbon intensity approach for renewable fuels. In April 2019, the federal carbon pricing backstop was imposed on those provinces not meeting the minimum threshold. Five provinces are currently challenging the federal carbon pricing framework in court. Along with ethanol and biodiesel, wood pellets are included in this report.
