  Montreal-based Deep Sky Corp. operates its Deep Sky Alpha direct air capture facility near Innisfail, Alberta, where it pulls carbon dioxide from the air, stores it underground, and sells offset credits to buyers including TD Bank Group, Microsoft Corp., and Royal Bank of Canada. The company utilizes a refundable federal tax credit covering up to 60 percent of eligible spending on direct air capture equipment through the end of 2035. GE Vernova Inc., a U.S.-based partner, is bringing a machine to the Alpha site designed to capture up to 1,500 tonnes of carbon annually by late 2026.

  Prime Minister Mark Carney proposed a productivity mega deduction at the Canada Investment Summit in Toronto, allowing businesses to deduct the full cost of new equipment and long-term assets in their first year. Industry representatives from the Pathways Alliance, including President Kendall Dilling, stated this federal tax policy addresses a crucial hurdle for financing the alliance's multi-billion-dollar carbon capture and storage project in Alberta. The Pathways Alliance project aims to cut approximately six million tonnes of emissions annually and is targeting a November 15 memorandum of understanding deadline for final binding agreements, with pipeline construction projected around 2030.

  Enhance Energy Inc. has broken ground on the Origins CCS Hub in Clive, Alberta, representing Canada's largest carbon capture and storage (CCS) project, which is scheduled to become operational by January 2027. The facility will initially store up to 1.5 million tonnes of CO2 per year in deep saltwater formations, equivalent to removing over 500,000 cars from the road, utilizing the Alberta Carbon Trunk Line and pipelines built from Canadian steel. Alberta Minister of Energy and Minerals Brian Jean framed the initiative as a race against the United States to capture carbon, which the province deems necessary to support its long-term goal of doubling oil production to eight million barrels per day. Federal Minister of Energy and Natural Resources Tim Hodgson noted that the federal government is collaborating with Alberta via a memorandum of understanding to establish a functioning carbon market.
