The Globe and Mail reports in its Friday, Oct. 11, edition that Australia's Fortescue has decided to withdraw its hydrogen project from the review process by British Columbia's environmental regulator. The Globe's Brent Jang writes that this move has put the company's plans on hold indefinitely in the province. Last year, Fortescue had submitted an initial project description to the provincial Environmental Assessment Office. The project aimed to produce "green hydrogen" in Prince George, B.C., for both domestic consumption and for exporting to Asia. It planned to use ammonia as the carrier for hydrogen exports. Climate activists have raised concerns about Fortescue's Coyote project, stating that it would require significant amounts of hydroelectricity. They estimate that 900 megawatts would be needed for the electrolysis process for hydrogen production, along with an additional 100 megawatts for ammonia synthesis. Fortescue envisaged transporting ammonia by rail, using Canadian National Railway's tracks from Prince George to Trigon Pacific Terminals Ltd.'s new export facility, which is slated to open in 2027 at the Port of Prince Rupert on the West Coast.
