DevvStream Hires Dr. Rensing as Low Carbon Fuels Advisor

DevvStream appoints Dr. Michael J. Rensing, former head of the British Columbia Low Carbon Fuel Standard Program (BC LCFS), as its Low Carbon Fuels Advisor. 

Dr. Rensing has been instrumental in developing and implementing successful low-carbon fuel policies and legislation, including the BC LCFS. Carbon credits sold into this market are among the world’s highest in value, with 2022 prices ranging over C$440.45 per credit.
