Building new gas plants…

Building new gas plants without CCUS ‘externalizes’ the cost savings from not capturing and sequestering the otherwise emitted CO2. Other sectors in Ontario’s and Canada’s economies must reduce their emissions to offset emissions from the new gas plants. Therefore, the P2D report should include estimated emissions from the new and existing fleet of gas-fired plants over their remaining life until their retirement.
