Who can apply
Applicants to the fund must meet the following criteria to be eligible for funding:
- The applicant must be a regulated emitter with an established baseline under The Management and Reduction of Greenhouse Gases (Standards and Compliance) Regulations, 2023.
- The proposal must show the project will achieve reductions in absolute greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and/or GHG emissions intensity.
- Only projects that address Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions are considered for funding through the Saskatchewan Technology Fund.
- The project must directly contribute to emissions reductions at a facility (or facilities) with an established baseline, under the ownership/operation of the regulated emitter.
- The project boundary must be wholly within Saskatchewan.
OBPS regulated emitters may only submit one project per intake.
About the funding
OBPS regulated emitters who exceed permitted emissions intensity levels are required to pay compliance, which can be met by using performance credits, CCUS credits or by paying into the Saskatchewan Technology Fund.
Payments to the fund are made available to regulated emitters through a competitive application process to support a range of market-ready technologies, innovations and improvement projects that reduce greenhouse gas emissions at regulated facilities in Saskatchewan.
