2030 Plan for a Green Economy and its implementation plan

The 2030 Plan for a Green Economy (PDF 14.95 Mb) (2030 PGE) is Québec’s policy framework for electrification and the fight against climate change. It sets out the vision, targets and main principles that guide government action.

The 2030 PGE is supported by implementation plan that set out the concrete actions to be carried out. The funding comes primarily from carbon market revenues, supplemented by other sources, including contributions from energy distributors to specific energy transition measures (PDF 250 Kb) (in French only).

Revised annually, it covers a five-year horizon and make it possible to adjust measures, budgets and targets based on changing contexts, knowledge and technologies. It is structured around three main areas:

1. Reduce GHG emissions and accelerate the energy transition, notably through electrification, renewable energy, as well as energy sobriety and energy efficiency.
2. Adapt to the impacts of climate change to strengthen the resilience of Québec society and limit the effects of climate change on the population, infrastructure, the economy and the environment.
3. Support the transformation of society and the economy to promote an inclusive transition based on collaboration, innovation and the commitment of all stakeholders.

Projections on GHG emissions and the economy are updated each year to track progress and guide action.
