FortisBC is welcoming the approval from the provincial government for its Tilbury Marine Jetty project.
The TMJ project consists of building a jetty, or dock, on the south arm of the Fraser River adjacent to FortisBC’s existing Tilbury LNG facility. Once constructed, the TMJ will be the first facility on Canada’s west coast that will enable trans-oceanic vessels to fuel with liquefied natural gas at the Port of Vancouver.
“We welcome the decision from the provincial government and are optimistic that federal approval will follow soon,” said Roger Dall’Antonia, president and CEO of FortisBC. “Tilbury LNG is all around win-win from decarbonizing the marine sector, to improving air quality and sharing economic benefits with local and Indigenous businesses. We look forward to the day we can call our region the ‘port of call’ for low carbon marine fuelling on the West Coast.
