All of this is accurate. The province is keeping a transition from oil and gas to electric in mind. The early plan is use grey or blue hydrogen, so by products of natural gas production. It doesn't reduce green house gasses beyond encouraging less flaring.

The plan is have it in place as they start more renewable gas collection (harvesting from garbage/animal waste) which is also heavily subsidized from both a natural gas and agriculture standpoint.

All of this with hope that green hydrogen becomes cheaper in the next 20 years.
