A new report released last week by Teck Resources, Canada’s largest diversified resources company, has revealed that 80% of the company’s electricity now comes from renewable sources. This large-scale transition to renewable energy generation is part of Teck’s commitment to reducing its own carbon footprint. As part of that commitment, Teck has a stated goal of reducing its greenhouse gas emissions to the tune of 450,000-tonnes by 2030.

As might be expected from the first Canadian resource company to join the Carbon Pricing Leadership Coalition, Teck continues to advocate strongly for policies that support the transition to a low-carbon future.
