B.C. to Require LNG Emissions to Be World’s Lowest, page-2

Interesting. Given we use 30% less gas to run the plant and use no other major form of consumable this only bodes well for us. Anyone got any idea though on what the actual numbers are though?

The article states: "Global LNG facility emissions range from 0.18 to 0.27 tons per ton of the fuel, according to government statements citing studies and analysis." and that "The policy will encourage developers to use technology to curb emissions by offering incentives, the government said, without explaining the incentives. To qualify for benefits, LNG terminals will be required to keep emissions below 0.23 tons of carbon per ton of LNG. LNG facilities with emissions lower than the benchmark can sell performance credits to other shipping terminals.". Though earlier the article seems to contradict this statement by saying "The government of Canada’s westernmost province, led by Premier Christy Clark’s Liberals, will require that facilities not exceed the equivalent of 0.16 metric ton of carbon dioxide per ton of LNG, the provincial Environment Ministry said today." so it's hard to understand what the actual planned number is.
