Clean Energy Canada

New rules to transition Canada's power grids to be clean by 2035 have been significantly watered down, allowing fossil fuels to stay on the grid for decades to come thanks to freshly introduced loopholes — a trade off for reliability feds say.

The federal government is allocating over a billion dollars to help Saskatchewan and New Brunswick clean up their electricity production. A key priority for the money will be Indigenous-led initiatives that help provinces transition away from using fossil fuels.

Because B.C. LNG production is expected to ramp up at precisely the same time global production plateaus, the province “will not have a first mover advantage, and its output will be competing in a highly competitive global market,” a new report finds.

Clean50 event, in its 14th edition, brought together 150 delegates to brainstorm green transition solutions in areas ranging from clean finance to sustainable construction, renewable energy to climate action education

Installing a heat pump or switching from a gas to electric vehicle can save Canadian households money but the upfront cost of getting off fossil fuels still deters Canadians from taking action, according to a new report from Clean Energy Canada.

Just two per cent of new trucks and buses sold in Canada in 2023 were zero-emissions, compared to nine per cent globally.

It is already more cost effective over the long term to buy an electric vehicle than a gas-powered model, but the savings must get substantially higher if Canada is to meet its EV sales targets, the parliamentary budget office concluded in a new analysis.

Despite what you may have read about consumers supposedly turning away from EVs, the opposite continues to be true in 2024.

While a tariff mirroring the U.S.’s may be seen by many as a win for Canada’s auto sector, an inelegant trade move could result in even fewer models and higher prices for Canadian consumers. 

Canada’s clean energy transition is underway but provinces holding much of the power to instigate change aren’t all pulling their weight, says a new report.

While straight-up denying the existence of climate change has declined by a third, videos discrediting climate solutions, like EVs, have more than tripled.

Donald Trump's petro-masculinity is certainly getting political oxygen from Conservative leaders in Canada.

Alberta Premier Danielle Smith is replacing a renewable energy development moratorium with what appears to be a de facto ban, turning the province into one of the few jurisdictions on Earth frustrating the growth of clean, cheap power.

British Columbia intends to electrify its fledgling LNG industry to help its competitiveness, but a new poll released suggests that plan may be on thin ice with the public.

Canadian auto companies sold more electric vehicles this year than ever before, but would still need to nearly double that number within three years to meet a new national mandate.
