Submitting your project plan

In order to claim the CCUS ITC, you must be issued an initial project evaluation for each qualified CCUS project.

To be issued an initial project evaluation, you need to complete a FEED study, take the pre-screening questionnaire, and submit a project plan to NRCan.

A project plan must be submitted to NRCan:

• Before the project’s first day of commercial operations (i.e. the day that is 120 days after the day on which captured carbon dioxide is first delivered to a carbon transportation, carbon storage or carbon use system for the purpose of storage or use on an ongoing operational basis);
• or by September 19, 2024, if the project’s first day of commercial operations occurred prior to June 21, 2024.
