About this project
The description is as the source gives it.
At the Montney gas plant in British Columbia, Canada, Shell replaced 14 natural gas compressor engines with electric motors powered by the hydropower-supplied grid. This project delivers an expected full-year annual reduction of over 149,000 tonnes of CO2e through electrification of operations. Evidence: "In September 2025, the Montney gas plant in British Columbia, Canada, replaced 14 natural gas compressor engines with electric motors. The new motors use electricity from the predominantly hydropower-supplied power grid, enabling an expected full-year annual reduction of over 149,000 tonnes of CO2e." — https://www.shell.com/investors/results-and-reporting/annual-report/_jcr_content/root/main/section_2113846431/link_list/links/item2.stream/1773292491081/1bb8ca77d4189274d0abd1c40bf1defe1f7b4a49/strategic-report-ar25.pdf
