- German Chancellor Olaf Scholz and his deputy, Economic Affairs and Climate Action Minister Robert Habeck, kicked off a three-day trip to Canada on Monday, seeking to arrange short-term gas-based energy solutions and to explore longer-term, cleaner options, such as green hydrogen.
- The focus of the negotiations with Germany will lie on the supply of liquefied natural gas (LNG) and green hydrogen amid Berlin’s attempt to lessen its dependence on Russia as a supplier of gas.
- To that end, he highlighted his government’s goal to have Germany be climate neutral by 2050 and the role Canada will play in reaching that goal as a lead developer of green hydrogen technology.
