AI summary The document outlines Nova Scotia's greenhouse gas emission caps from 2010 to 2030, aiming for a 55% reduction in emissions over 20 years. The cap-and-trade program, effective January 1, 2019, includes annual free allowances for GHG emissions for NS Power. Emissions from electricity production are projected to decrease by 58% from 2005 levels by 2030.

AI summary In 2020, the Federal Government proposed a carbon pricing trajectory starting at $65/tonne in 2023, increasing to $170/tonne by 2030. Nova Scotia updated its Environment Act in 2022, transitioning from a cap-and-trade system to an output-based pricing system (NS OBPS), setting emissions intensity limits for generating facilities and requiring compensation for excess emissions at the federal carbon price.
