The Canadian Biogas…

The Canadian Biogas Association (CBA) appreciates the opportunity to provide feedback on the proposed amendments to the Cleaner Transportation Fuels Regulation (Ontario Regulation 663/20), as outlined in Environmental Registry of Ontario postings 019-9138 and 025-0669.

We support Ontario’s efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from the transportation sector and encourage measures that increase the use of Canadian low-carbon, renewable fuels. In particular, we highlight the role that renewable natural gas (RNG) can play in reducing emissions both in fuel production and vehicle operation. Our attached submission outlines recommendations to align regulatory frameworks, enhance flexibility, and support domestic clean fuel production. Our recommendation include aligning RNG Treatment in the CTF Technical Guidelines with the Emissions Performance Standards (EPS) and establishing voluntary compliance units for alternative fuels and domestic content support.

The CBA is the collective voice of Canada’s biogas and RNG industry. Founded in 2008, our membership includes over 185 organizations—farmers, municipalities, utilities, technology developers, consultants, financiers, and other key stakeholders—all committed to advancing biogas and RNG as clean energy solutions across Canada.
