Say energy storage and most imagine EV lithium-ion batteries. But a range of "long duration" concepts that store power for weeks rather than hours are coming to market, among them one called high-density hydro that uses a mud-brown slurry pumped through a long loop of plastic pipe on a hillside to store energy until it's needed.

There is a risk that climate action and clean growth create more jobs than can be filled by the available workforce.

The world is pivoting to renewables at an exponential rate. Fortunately, a booming solar industry will replace some of those lost jobs.

There are several energy innovators in Canada that have made huge strides in adopting low- or no-carbon solutions by blending energy sources with the goal of helping large and small energy users achieve their 2030 goals. One solution is renewable natural gas.

A Montreal-based startup wants to tackle food insecurity in the north with aquaponic farms that could produce food all year long.
