Vancouver, BC - A series of reports, released by Foresight Canada in partnership with the Clean Energy and Major Projects Office (CEMPO), investigate British Columbia's potential to establish major hydrogen hubs in various regions and examines the feasibility of hydrogen transportation. In addition to outlining potential challenges, the research identifies key supply and demand opportunities across four areas: BC’s Lower Mainland, Northeast, Southern Interior, and Vancouver Island, and highlight their distinct competitive advantages for hydrogen development.

As British Columbia works toward net zero, a diverse mix of cleantech solutions and energy alternatives will be required. Hydrogen is a promising option to complement electrification. BC has a strong foundation of innovation and expertise to build on. The reports highlight how this established sector, combined with regional strengths, uniquely positions the province to lead in hydrogen production and adoption. While scaling this sector presents real challenges—including the need for new regulations and infrastructure to ensure its safe transport—the opportunities for BC to drive the clean energy transition through strategic hydrogen hub development are significant.
