WASHINGTON — Alberta’s environment minister expressed little concern that European countries are taking steps toward tariffs on imported natural gas associated with high methane emissions as she promoted the province’s role as an energy ally in Washington.

European Union countries approved a law earlier this year to impose methane emissions limits on oil and gas imports from 2030.Other jurisdictions, including the U.S., are also moving toward stringent methane targets that could impact the Alberta market in the future.Schulz says Alberta has worked with producers to reduce emissions by 45 per cent and says they reached that target three years ahead of schedule.
