Canada’s federal and provincial policy landscape, including key policies like Canada’s federal Clean Fuel Regulations (CFR) and British Columbia’s LCFS, represent a significant shift toward reducing greenhouse gas emissions, creating new demand for low-carbon fuels like biodiesel, renewable diesel, SAF and renewable marine fuels. Our industry expert will provide insights into the policy landscape, including the key provisions of the CFR, and how these align with U.S. production capabilities. The session will highlight cross-border collaboration opportunities and trade and will examine logistical and regulatory considerations for exporting clean fuels to Canada. We will also discuss the role of U.S.-based feedstocks and fuels in meeting Canadian demand.
