German Chancellor Olaf Scholz will be visiting Canada from Aug. 21 to 23, and the two heads of government will sign the hydrogen accord during a stop in Stephenville, N.L.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and German Chancellor Olaf Scholz will sign an agreement to jointly explore the production of hydrogen fuel in Canada for export to Germany, the German government announced on Friday.
The agreement is part of the German government’s effort to become less dependent on Russian fuel supplies by deepening energy partnerships with Canada and other countries. Producers in Alberta manufacture the majority of Canada’s hydrogen using natural gas – a process that creates greenhouse-gas emissions.
A handful of those would involve the production of hydrogen, he said, with Germany as a potential customer. The visit will happen about five months after Mr. Scholz and Mr. Trudeau met in Berlin to discuss a range of issues, including clean energy.
