The carbon price for fuel combustion is set at 30 per tonne of CO2e under the British Columbia Carbon Tax Act. The provincial carbon tax is set to increase by 5 per tonne of CO2e per year starting from April 1, 2018, and will meet the federal target carbon price of 50 starting from April 1, 2021. The tax may also be extended to fugitive and vented emissions from the oil and gas sector. The Government of British Columbia has also implemented measures to reduce upstream emissions from oil and gas.
