Canada has announced a $49 million investment in HTEC's project to construct a hydrogen liquefier facility in North Vancouver, with a total project cost of $472 million. The facility aims to capture and liquefy 15 tonnes per day of industrial by-product hydrogen, which will be used to distribute low-carbon hydrogen to HTEC's refuelling stations in British Columbia and Alberta. This initiative is part of HTEC's H2 Gateway program, which includes hydrogen refuelling stations, production facilities, and hydrogen heavy-duty fuel cell electric trucks. The project is expected to create up to 500 jobs, promote co-op hiring, and establish a full value chain ecosystem for heavy-duty fuel cell electric trucks in Canada. The investment is in line with Canada's goal of achieving net-zero emissions by 2050 and supporting the growing global demand for clean hydrogen. The Canadian government sees this project as critical for decarbonizing the trucking sector and positioning Canada as a leader in hydrogen technologies and sustainable practices. The investment is also viewed as a way to enhance energy security and establish Canada as a reliable energy supplier in the future.
