| Summary | This hydrogen study investigates if and how conventional energy (fossil fuels) can be replaced by hydrogen to reduce carbon emissions in the Northwest Territories (NWT). The current energy system and the main sources of emissions are described. Transportation emits most CO2 by a significant margin, followed by energy consumption in buildings. Most of the energy consumed is based on petroleum products such as diesel and fuel oil and sourced from Alberta from where it is railed into Hay River and distributed by truck and barge to the various locations within the Territories. |
