Interesting that they finally settled this. The real question is whether the incentive structure actually drives industrial decarbonization or if it just creates a bureaucratic loophole for the oil sands.
Exactly. The video mentions the deal but doesn't give the specific price floor or the timeline for the next hike. Without those numbers, it is hard to tell if this is a real policy shift or just political theater.
If this deal includes funding for carbon capture or grid upgrades, that is where the actual impact is. I want to see the capital allocation for transmission. A tax agreement is one thing, but moving electrons is another.
