Environment & Clean Technology

Canada’s hub for renewable energy production

Three quarters of Canada’s renewable energy projects built in the last year are located in Alberta

The ideal location for investing in renewable energy

The Edmonton Region is one of the sunniest Region in Canada, with 2,300 hours of sun in an average year, making it well-suited for solar energy projects. With over 2,000 MW of installed renewable energy capacity as of May 2024, and consistent year-over-year growth (36.2% increase from May 2023), our Region offers a proven track record of success.  

Abundant natural resources, 330+ days of sunlight, along with a supportive regulatory environment, make the Edmonton Region an attractive destination for renewable energy projects.
